Have you ever had a day when you couldn’t seem to focus, concentrate, or participate fully in your activities, because your mind is somewhere else? When this happens, you can say “I’m really out of it today.” 你是否曾有过某一天无法集中精神、集中精力或充分参与你的活动，因为你的思想在别处？当这种情况发生时，你可以说：“我今天不在状态。” Sometimes this lack of focus only lasts a quick moment – when this happens (your mind temporarily goes blank) you can say you spaced out. 有时候这种缺乏焦点只是短暂的瞬间——当这种情况发生时（你的大脑暂时变得空白），你可以说你有点出神了。 Other times you are trying to remember or say some piece of information that’s really obvious, and should easily come to mind, but it doesn’t. This is playfully called a “brain fart” because it’s like your brain temporarily malfunctioned. 有时你想记住或者说一些信息，很明显，应该很容易想到的，但这不可能。这是开玩笑地称为“脑子短路”，因为它就像你的大脑暂时失灵。 Huh? What did you say? Sorry – I spaced out for a moment there. 嗯？你说什么？对不起，我出神了一会儿。 I’m having a brain fart – what was the name of that movie we saw a few days ago? 我脑子短路了——几天前我们看的那部电影叫什么名字？ 哎，别忙走, 转发一下呗。 多一个人读，你就可以让本文多一份价值。 |
