总结：四级听力考试高频习语（2）

4、apply

这里我们详细串联一下在听力考试中涉及到的与求职相关的短语。

apply for(申请)，这是工作的第一步；既然要申请，必然需要递交letter of application(求职信)，只要你足够confident about yourself，就有可能获得job interview(工作面试)的机会。是否能够give a good impression(留个好印象)给主管，那就得看你个人犄造化了。

有些工作岗位会require much traveling，(要求经常出差)还有些工作，做不了多久就会希望find a way out(找到出路)。

正所谓城里城外，各有风光。没工作的人想工作，有工作的人又烦工作。

5、as

1、作为，当作。

I am working as his teaching assistant. 我作为他的助教进行工作。

2、as…as 就像……一样

I’ve heard that he is as well-known as Johnson herself. 我听说他跟约翰生本人自己一样著名。

I don’t think it would be as boring as working in an office.

我并不认为这会跟在办公室工作一样枯燥。

It wasn’t as easy as I had thought. 这不像我想的那么简单。

It’s not as bad as it looks. 这并不像看上去的那么糟糕。

Is that optional course as hard as everybody says?

那个选修课真的就像每个人说的那样难吗ײַ

3、as far as I know 据我所知

As far as I know, whether there’ll be such a trip is yet to be decided.

据我所知，是否有这么一趟旅行尚未决定。

As far as I know, he works until midnight every day.

据我所知，他每天都工作到半夜。

4、as well 也

If the weather is this hot tomorrow, we may as well give up the idea of playing tennis outside.

如果明天温度还是这么高，我们也可能放弃到户外进行比赛的主意。

1、as soon as 一……就，尽快

I will do that for you as soon as I have fixed the machine.

一修好机器我就会尽快为你完成那个工作。

6、awfully

非常地，相当地。在口语中用于表程度的比例十分高。

awfully nervous 相当紧张；awfully cold 相当冷；awfully sorry 十分抱歉

Tom looks awfully nervous.　汤姆看上去相当紧张。

I am awfully sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you.　十分抱歉。我不想伤害你的。
