Go All Out

上周末收到朋友发来的短信 “Man they are going all out at South Coast Plaza for Chinese New Year!"  "They're having a mini parade at Bloomingdales with a dragon!"
前几天,我班上的一个白人女孩送来一大堆从唐人街买的新年的食物和饰物,有个同学说;" Wow, you went all out for the new year!" 我笑她过年比我还投入。
Go all out - to do something with full enthusiasm or determination, with maximum effort. 全力以赴。

Pull It Off

每次在店里看到难看或怪异的衣物,女儿总会说 “I'm sure some people can pull it off."  肯定有人穿戴了不难看。
那天我拿着一条小女孩的花布腰带教 "腰带" 这个词,有个男生说 "I can pull it off."  我把腰带递了给他,他接过系在自己的腰上,嗯,还真不算难看!
