定义
to double check: 仔细检查，反复察看
Icarus always double checks his work before turning it in. 伊卡洛斯在交作业之前总是反复检查。
示例
- "Yesterday, as I was double checking our monthly bank statement, I noticed some peculiarities which are quite troubling."
- "But I just wanted to double check that there hasn't been a mistake, because the cost of this month's supplies is nearly 14,000 dollars."
- "And Cheeter, I suggest you double and triple check all of your research, as I'm sure Miss Bliss is going to do her homework, as she usually does."
练习 1
According to the dialogue, which of the following statements is TRUE?
According to the dialogue, which of the following statements is TRUE?
This is the only statement which is true. Bruno says "I suggest you double and triple check all of your research". This means that Bruno wants Philip to prepare a complete, exhaustive report by next week. To "double check (something)" means to check something "twice" or again, often to assure accuracy, for example: I double checked my pockets to see if I had put my cars keys there.
This statement is not true. Philip says: "We're bringing money to these poorer nations. We're practically saving them from starvation". He is exaggerating when he says this, but there is no evidence that Delavigne encourages or "promotes" starvation in poor countries.
This statement is not true. Susie talks about a "possible public scandal, which will cost you much more than your precious profits". This means that a "public scandal" would potentially cost Delavigne a large amount of money, but when she says "much more than your profits", she is implying that a scandal would hurt their "reputation".
This statement is not true. Bruno says that he does not like Philip's argument, but they "may have to seriously reconsider Philip's suggestions". Whether or not Bruno "likes" Philip's suggestions, he will "consider" them, or "think them over".
