(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

1. Fuddy-duddy

如果想说某个人非常不前卫，思想和态度都特别保守，我们可以称他为fuddy-duddy，中文可以说是“老古板”。

例：He's just an old fuddy-duddy.

他就是个老古板。

2. Cut and dried

有些事情不用想就知道了答案，做事总爱搬出老一套。这种情况可以用cut and dried来形容，表示已经没什么新意了。

例：It was¹ all cut and dried - the same old speakers² saying³ the same things they said⁴ last year.

什么都是老一套。发言的都还是去年那些人，讲的话也跟去年一样。

3. Corny

陈芝麻烂谷子的事情又拿出来抖了…… corny本身有“谷类的”意思，这里它的意思是指“老套的、老土的”。

例：I know it sounds corny, but it really was love at first sight⁵!

我知道这听上去很老土，但是那时真的是一见钟情。

4. Old-school

Old-school可不是“老学校”的意思。它既有“老派的，守旧的”意思，也能表示“传统的，怀旧的”含义。

例：We had⁶ an old-school coach⁷ who made⁸ us run two kilometers⁹ every day.

我们的教练很老派，每天都让我们跑两公里。

5. Same old story

周而复始，事情一遍又一遍地发生着，可是每次都是一个情况，教人厌倦至极！

例：I'm tired of it, the same old story.

我已经厌倦了，都是老一套。
