2020-09-15 Do something with your eyes closed 闭着眼睛都能做某事

今日短语

表达 “do something with your eyes closed” 或 “do something with your eyes shut” 的意思是 “能轻而易举地或很好地做某事”,就像汉语里说的 “闭着眼睛都能做”。用这个表达可以暗示你已经多次做过某事,所以做起来轻车熟路,得心应手。

这个表达多与情态动词 “can” 或词组 “be able to” 搭配使用,即:“can do something with your eyes closed/shut” 和 “be able to do something with your eyes closed/shut” 。
