Reader Question: “But it was his outsized and riotous attack on cloud computing (‘The Cloud!’) that brought the house down.” Could you explain “bring the house down”? My comments: Also known as “bring down the house” , the term “bring the house down” is generally used when talking about a performance, whether it is a comedian doing an act in a small club, a singer belting out songs in a concert hall, or actors on stage in a theatre. It means to successfully entertain and make the audience laugh, clap loudly and be overall extremely pleased and gratified with a performance. The word “house” in this sense represents a place of performance, like an arena, auditorium, or those mentioned above. It can be used in the following way, for example: “When Beyoncé performs in Beijing next week at the Wukesong Arena, she is sure to bring the house down.” 本文仅代表作者本人观点,与本网立场无关。欢迎大家讨论学术问题,尊重他人,禁止人身攻击和发布一切违反国家现行法律法规的内容。 实践证明经常访问无忧英语教育网 www.51education.net ,能迅速提高你的英语学习能力!积沙成塔,不断提高! 本站所提供的所有信息仅供学校课堂教学及英语学习者学习研究之用,其著作权归原作者及媒体所有。 |
