學個句子:"Don't make a scene!"


'To make a scene' is an expression we use in English to describe when somebody causes a disturbance or is loud in public. Often it's embarrassing. Let's hear some examples of how this expression is used:


======

I will never go back to the restaurant again. Last night Jane made a scene when the waiter brought fish instead of the beef she had ordered! It was very embarrassing.


Don't make a scene, Alan! We are not married yet and I can go out with whoever I like - including your best friend!

======


"Don't make a scene!"意指別鬧了(公眾場合)!"scene"大多數意思指景色、場景、事件、舞台!但"make a scene"就指當眾大吵大鬧,這邊也可以用create,"create a scene"。而相近的詞卻不同的意思,"make the scene"在美國的俚語中,意思為到場、出現,跟上面的略有不同!
