在危急存亡的关头
upon a die 在危急存亡的关头...
或是没有看见的时候用可以打死人的石头扔在人身上,以致于死,本来与他无仇,也无意害他。
Professionals of stage and screen, they know how to express an emotion when called upon to act it.We believe them when we see them cry or fall in love or die in a movie or play.以舞台和屏幕为职业的他们知道,用何种表情来表达规定的情感,当看到他们在电影或戏剧中或痛哭流涕或坠入爱河亦或是与世长辞,我们都深信不疑。
Of course, at one level we know that we shall all die; but death has come to be looked upon more as a medical failure than a human norm.当然,我们知道人固有一死。但现在死亡更多地被看作医学的无能为力而不是人类的自然走向。
