3.详细解说

1.“be free”在这里的意思是“有空的,空闲的”,“free”是形容词,例如:I'm quite free this evening.(我今天晚上挺闲的。)此外
,“free”在作副词表示“免费地”时,有一个重要的搭配“for free”,意为“免费,不收钱”,例如:You can't expect people to work for free.(你不能期望大家免费为你工作。)
2.“fold-up chairs”意为“折叠椅”,其中“fold-up”为复合形容词,表示“折叠的”。
3.“pick sb. up”的意思是“用车接某人”,例如:Could you pick me up around eight?(你能在8点左右来接我吗?)另外,“pick sb.
up”还有“逮捕某人,责备某人”的意思,例如:Authorities picked Linden up at a border crossing.(当局在边境的一个关口逮捕了林登。)She picked him up for using bad language.(她指责他出言不逊。)

4.文化洗礼

邀请的相关知识(一)

邀请因其正式程度不同而有所不同。朋友、同事、同学之间经常有非正式的口头邀请。提出非正式邀请的一方并不一定有为所有人全部付款的义务。
如果有人说“咱们一起出去喝一杯吧。(Let's go out for a drink.)”或“星期四咱们一起吃午饭怎么样?( How about getting together
for lunch on Thursday?)”。这就表示各人付自己的账单。如果有人说“我带你去吃午饭。 ( Let me take you to lunch.)”或“我请你吃
午饭。(I'll treat you to lunch.)”,就意味着他/她打算为你付钱。如果不确定,可以先问“你买单?(Are you buying?)”或“各付
各的钱吗?(Is this a Dutch treat?)”。
男士邀请女士时,一般认为男士应该买单。如果是正式邀请(事先发送请柬),则通常是邀请人付钱。
