第一、迷你對話

A: Have you met John recently

?最近你見到約翰了嗎？

B: I saw him last week. It seems he was a bit queer in the head.

上週我見到了他，他好像有點瘋瘋癲癲的。

A: Yes, he has been like that since his accident.

是的，自從車禍後他就這樣。

B: What a pity!

真可憐！

第二、 地道表達

queer in the head

1. 解詞釋義

形容詞“queer”的意思是“古怪的”，queer in the head指“某人的精神不正常”。

2. 支持範例

e.g. I think she's gone a bit queer in the head.

我看她精神不太正常。

e.g. Joe Kane decided that the man who confronted him was queer in the head but harmless.

喬·凱恩斷定他面前這個人的精神有點不正常，但也並無惡意。

e.g. The judge ruled that the man had killed himself while he was queer in the head.

法官裁定這男子是在精神不正常時自殺的。

e.g. The barrister represented to the court that the defendant was queer in the head.

訟務律師向法庭陳述被告精神不正常。

第三、 口語句型

What a pity!

1. 解句釋義

這個是感嘆句，表示對某人的同情，翻譯爲“真遺憾，真可憐”等。這個感嘆句省略了主語it和謂語is。完整的句子應該是What a pity it is!

2. 句型拓展

What a pity that+從句！

（1）解句釋義

翻譯爲“真可惜......”，表示對某事感到遺憾。

（2）典型範例
