大傢好，歡迎收聽 AYYBLOG英語教學的 “地道英語” 節目。我是菲菲。

Rob
… and I’m Rob.

Feifei
你怎麼聽上去有點兒不高興？

Rob
I’ve just had a meeting about my work with my boss, and his feedback wasn’t very… good.

Feifei
Oh, no – what did he say?

Rob
He said I had a very ‘relaxed’ attitude to work.

Feifei
Oh, Rob, don’t take it to heart. He’s not good at giving constructive feedback.

Rob
My heart is fine, thanks, Feifei. It’s just my feelings that are hurt.

Feifei
I’m sure – but I wasn’t referring to your heart literally! 在英語裡，表達 “take something to heart” 的意思是 “把某事放在心上”。漢語裡我們經常說的 “往心裡去” 就可以用 “take something to heart” 來表達。Cheer up, Rob. You’re not the only one who’s been taking things to heart. Listen to these examples.

Examples
Don’t take her comments to heart. I thought your performance at the show was excellent!

He was only joking about your shoes – don’t take it to heart!

Freya tends to take things to heart, so be careful how you deliver your feedback.

你正在收聽的是 AYYBLOG英語教學的 “地道英語” 節目。以上我們學習瞭表達 “take something to heart” 的意思和用法。表達中的 “something” 指的就是 “讓你往心裡去的那件事”。比如：Rob has taken the feedback to heart. Rob 把反饋放在瞭心上。老板給 Rob 的反饋讓 Rob 心煩意亂、想不開。Rob, don’t take it to heart. 你別往心裡去。Maybe the boss was trying to be kind?

Rob
Hmm… but he said I had a ‘relaxed’ attitude to work – and that means lazy!

Feifei
Not necessarily – maybe he meant you don’t find work stressful?

Rob
Really? Do you think so? Hmm… maybe you’re right. I’m being too sensitive. I won’t take it to heart.

Feifei
這就對瞭，別往心裡去！Don’t take things to heart.

Rob
Thanks, Feifei. Bye.

Feifei
Bye.
