核心句型:
That's a lot of bull!
一派胡言!
a lot of bull 在美国是一条非常流行的骂人口语,最开始从黑帮流传出来的,这里的bull事实上原本是bullshit,即“瞎扯,胡说”的意思,所以这条口语的正确意思是:“一派胡言,胡扯,胡说八道”。因此,当美国人说"That's a lot of bull!"时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"What you've just said is sheer nonsense!"、"Your opinion is all my eye!"、"That's sheer rubbish!"。
情景对白:
Jane: Sir, can I ask for a leave tomorrow? I promised my son to watch his piano performance.
简:老板,明天我能请一天假吗?我答应儿子去看他的钢琴表演。
Boss! That is a lot of bull! Don't you understand we are at a very critical moment now?
老板:一派胡言!你难道不明白我们现在正处在紧要关头吗?
搭配句积累:

③It's said that you have plagiarized another company's idea.

④According to the feedback, your products are harmful to human bodies.
