看美剧学英语高频短语：Take advantage of
本帖最后由 明月 于 2020-6-28 17:49 编辑Take advantage of: 1. To make good use of the opportunities offered by.: take advantage of all educational opportunities. 2. To make use of for selfish reasons; achieve a selfish goal by exploiting: took advantage of him by leaving him with the bill; took advantage of his unsuspecting nature. 3.

中文释义：占某人便宜，利用某人，利用某机会或某物。注意：这个短语是中性的，不一定是贬义，要根据语境判断。take advantage，“利用、占便宜”，在句子里一般充当谓语。例句：I'm not that kind of people who likes taking advantage.（我不是那种爱占便宜的人。）如果要表达占某人的便宜、利用某人，则需要用take advantage of sb的固定用法。take advantage of的后面也可以接something，表示利用某物。
今日看点：Take advantage of one's strengths and make up for one's weaknesses. 取人之长，补己之短。
