영어 단어 풀이
1. rip off
Rip off. Again the word R I P, we know, has ths feeling of very fast action,
but the word rip off, in fact, means to steal from someone or to cheat someone
maybe even for overcharge.
2. shoot off
Ah, yeah, shoot. Well, you're taking a picture with your camera or firing a gun,
both of these use the word shoot. What does that mean?
To do something very quickly. To shoot off, then, is to perhaps send something very quickly.
perhaps an e-mail or a letter or a text message. Shoot off a text to me.
3. switch off
Ah yeah well, think about this, switch. When you enter a room and the room is very dark. What is the first
thing you look for? You might look for a switch on the wall and then
you will switch on the light and when, of course, you're leaving the room
you wil switch off the light. So think of using the switch to turn on or turn off the light,
as a way, of course, seeing or saving energy, use the expression sometimes
switch on and switch off.
John's Recap
You know, these days 길동's in a bad mood. First of all 민희 shut down his proposal
and then some bills came in the mail. His electric bill was very high.
He thought something's wrong. So he wrote a long e-mail to the electric company.
He said "I think you people are trying to rip off me on this deal.
I'm paying too much for my electric bill." He shot off the e-mail to them
and he waited a few days. Finally they were abele to shoot off an e-mail back to him.
Very simple, one line in their e-mail to 길동. They said "Mr.홍길동. Swithc off your lights.
Save money." Yeah, so, now he's walking around in his house in the dark with a candle.
