She was down in the dumps.

她心情坏透了。down in the dumps指心情不好。

听过 Down in the dumps 这成语吗？
倒不如先看例句，再看看你们能否猜到它的意思！Shirley was down in the dumps until her boyfriend arrived. 你是否不明白：为何雪莉在等男朋友时，她的头会挤进垃圾推当中呢？想起来也觉得很滑稽。
Dumps 是垃圾，而这字用作复数时，有“忧郁，沮丧”( depressed or sad ) 的意思。Down in the dumps 直译为“掉进了忧郁之中”，整句就是指闷闷不乐，垂头丧气，与垃圾一点关系也没有。
以上例句就是形容雪莉在男朋友来到前，样子很不高兴，或许是等男朋友等得太久吧！与此相关的短语有：Down in the mouth，这个短语也是形容精神特别紧张的状况。
例如：Lily was down in the mouth when she knew her grandmother was sick.莉莉知道外婆生病，心情极度低落。
