( 她脸上布满条 条忧纹。) line 可作“使排成行, 沿排列成行”解, 如: volumes of the great works of literature line the shelves. ( 书架上排列着一卷卷文学巨著。) 和line 连用的词组很多, 如: read between the lines ( 领会言外之意) ; out of line ( 不一致, 不符合) 。4. cheer 本身有“ 喝彩”的意思, cheer up 作“ 高兴起来, 振作起来, 使感到安慰”解, 如: cheer up! your troubles will soon be over. ( 振作起来! 你的困难就会过去的。)5. 注意, 这里的box 要是翻译成“ 盒子, 箱子”可是要闹笑话的。它指的是“ ( 戏院、运动场 等处的) 包厢”。此外, ( 餐馆的) 分隔式雅座, 单间, ( 法院里的) 陪审
