Anyway, let's get into number one. So expression number one is 'like a shag on a rock', 'like a shag on a rock', 'like a shag on a rock'. If you feel like 'a shag on a rock', or you look like 'a shag on a rock', it is that you feel or look isolated, you feel or look exposed. So a good example from the episode that I used here in the podcast was that if you went out on a date, so you matched with someone on Tinder, you know, you hit it off, you thought it would be great to go on a first date. You ask them out, you go to the cafe, and they don't show up. You feel isolated, exposed, alone, right? You feel like 'a shag on a rock'. If someone walked past and saw you looking sad, looking around, looking lonely, they might say 'Man, that guy looks like a shag on a rock.' This is a very very Australian expression, you are unlikely to hear this in the US or the UK. 以上内容部分出自薇观英语“分级英语对话”和“慢听细学英语对话”系列高级部分,想更完整地学习对话及短文演讲可以在我的栏目下搜相关专辑示范课或者直接连线老师报名学习:weiguan199(个人薇信号)
