last minute helper 事后帮手
分类: 趣味英语
Last minute helper is that person who shows up AFTER everything else is done and offers to do something AFTER everything is already finished.
Last minute helper指所有事情都完成以后才出现,或者别人把所有事情都做完后才提出帮忙的人,我们称为“事后帮手”。
For example:
Joe showed up when we got all the dishes ready. He offered to set the table, but Mary already did it. He is definitely a last minute helper, you cannot count on him.
乔来的时候,我们已经做好菜了。他要求摆置餐桌,可是玛丽早就摆好了。他绝对是个事后帮手,一点都指靠不上。
