每日一句：The boss often laid a trip on his employees.( 8.22 )

薄荷糖娃娃

The boss often laid a trip on his employees.

那个老板总责备他的员工。

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lay a trip的意思是“责备”，与英文词组put a blame的意思大致相同。
若要指明具体责备哪个人，加上介词 on 就可以了，例如：“lay a trip on Peter”，（责备彼得）如果想指出责备是为何事，则可加上介词for，如：“lay a trip for his impoliteness”，（责备他的无礼）。
再看一个例句：The boss laid a trip on his staff for their laziness.老板责备他的员工懒散的态度。
除了lay a trip 和put a blame 外，谴责或责骂的英文词组还有tell off，例如：When I arrived home last night, my father told me off for being late.我昨晚一回家，爸爸就责怪我那么晚才回来
