源自莎士比亞作品的10個常用短語

學英語的人都知道，莎士比亞為英語詞匯的發(fā)展做出了卓越的貢獻，我們現(xiàn)在使用的很多詞匯和表達都是源于莎翁的作品，比如salad days、green-eyed monster等。今天，我們就為大家盤點出源自于莎士比亞作品的10個常用短語，看過之后會不會立馬覺得這些短語高大上了呢？

1. Green-Eyed Monster: 嫉妒

How Shakespeare used it:

The evil Iago plants doubts in Othello's mind about his wife's faithfulness, while advising him, "O, beware, my lord, of jealousy! / It is the green-eyed monster which doth mock / The meat it feeds on." (Othello, Act 3, Scene 3)

莎士比亞原文：邪惡的伊阿古讓奧賽羅對妻子的忠心起了疑心，提醒他說，“噢，大人，要小心嫉妒之心！那可是一只綠眼的妖魔，它慣于耍弄爪下的獵物?！保ā秺W賽羅》，第3幕第3場）

現(xiàn)代例句：

".... if jealousy wasn't a factor, three out of every four married people were highly satisfied with the emotional facets of their marriage. However, when the 'green-eyed monster' entered the mix, levels of satisfaction dropped to less than half for married folk." — Michelle Lodge, HealthDay.com, Feb. 12, 2010
