释义
eager to listen; attentive;渴望去听,全神贯注;
来源
The ear is the organ by which a person hears. So, if we figuratively say that "you are all ears," it means that at that moment you are keenly listening to whatever is being said. It&`&s as if no other part of your body mattered except your ears. This idiom is about three centuries old.
耳朵是用来听的器官;所以如果我们象征性地说:I&`&m all ears.我全是耳朵,那么意思就是说你在全神贯注地去听,其他的身体部位已经无关紧要了。这个成语已经有大约三个世纪的历史。
举例
Is there anything you&`&d like to tell me? I&`&m all ears.
你是否有什么需要跟我说的?我在听。
Now tell me all about your adventures in Africa last summer. I&`&m all ears.
现在告诉我你在非洲的所有冒险经历,我会洗耳恭听。
