2019-07-15 09:29阅读:
做完2019年全国三套卷之后,很多准高三学霸隐约觉得,自己的英语总是缺那么一点火候,要冲击140+,绝不是一件简单的事。
是的,我说,你们有没有发现,自己虽然已经积累了很多,刷了很多题,但是你英语学习上的“Achilles’Heel
阿喀琉斯之踵”。你注意到了吗?
— Jack still can’t being anxious
about his job interview.
— Lack of self-confidence is his
Achilles
’ heel
, I’m afraid.
(2016 江苏卷)
Achilles’Heel
阿喀琉斯之踵,原指阿喀琉斯的脚跟,现在一般是指致命的弱点,要害。
阿喀琉斯,是凡人珀琉斯和美貌仙女忒提斯的宝贝儿子。忒提斯为了让儿子炼成“金钟罩”,在他刚出生时就将其倒提着浸进冥河,遗憾的是,儿子被母亲捏住的脚后跟却不慎露在水外,全身留下了惟一一处“死穴”。后来在特洛伊战争中阿喀琉斯被太阳神一箭射中了脚踝而死去。
后人常以“阿喀琉斯之踵”譬喻这样一个道理:即使是再强大的英雄,他也有致命的死穴或软肋。
我们的英语也是一样,你的Achilles’Heel
阿喀琉斯之踵,补上了吗?
