　   猴子也算是人類的近親了。它們看到人們做什么，都能學(xué)得惟妙惟肖，可見(jiàn)我們和猴子之間的淵源還真是深。人類的語(yǔ)言中自然少不了猴子，今天我們就來(lái)學(xué)兩句關(guān)于猴子的口語(yǔ)表達(dá)。 　　1. Get one's monkey up

　　2. I will be a monkey's uncle.
　　"I will be a monkey's uncle." 在俚語(yǔ)中表示驚訝。在它的前面?？梢?jiàn)感嘆詞"Well"。例如：
　　He really left his wife? Well, I will be a monkey's uncle.(他真的丟下他的妻子？哎呀，我怎么不知道呢。)
　　3. Has a monkey on one's back
　　"To has a monkey on one's back" 在美國(guó)俚語(yǔ)中指"染上毒癮"(to have drug addiction)。例如：

　　5. Not give a monkey's fart
　　"Not give a monkey's fart" 又作 "not give/care a damn"，意思是"對(duì)某人某事不在乎"。例如：
　　I don't give a monkey's fart about what they think.(至于他們?cè)趺纯紤]，我一點(diǎn)也不在乎。)
　　6. Play the monkey
　　"To play the monkey" 又作"to play the fool"或"to play the goat"，意思是"出洋相，做傻事"。例如：Be serious! Don't play the monkey.(正經(jīng)點(diǎn)！別出洋相。)
