Can you give me a hand，Mike? Could you give me a ride?
四级词汇讲解:
can you和could you都是表示请求的句型，意为“你能……吗?”
※ give me a hand意为“帮我一个忙”，give me a ride意为“载我一程”。与此类似的说法还有:give me a reason“给我一个理由”，give me a chance“给我一次机会”，give me a hug“给我一个拥抱”。
※ 此外，还有一个非常口语化的说法give me a break，它的意思更微妙。如:
1)You really think Jennifer is the prettiest girl in our class?Give me a break!
There're several girls in our class who are better-looking than she is.(在这句话里，give me a break是表示不同意对方的意见。)
2)Look, kid，I'm working on a term paper that's due tomorrow.I promise to play the video game with you after dinner, OK? Come on,give me a break so I can finish this!(在这句话里，give me a break表示“你别烦我啦”。)
