#2 I Look Through My E-Mails And Dash Off Quick Replies

I get a ton of (a very large number of) e-mails, so one of the first things I do is look through my messages. To look through means to look at a number of things quickly.


I also dash off replies to any messages that need quick responses – the phrasal verb dash off means to write (and usually send) something fast.


我每天都会收到很多很多邮件,所以我每天第一件事就是快速浏览所有的邮件。Look through在这里的意思是很快速的看很多东西。


我也会快速回复那些需要回复的邮件,短语里的动词dash off在这里指的是快速的发送或者写。


讲解:

A ton of/tons of指的就是很大量,很多。那么来看一下面的句子吧:


小伙伴们一天都会收到tons of emails,每天check邮箱是免不了的,各种重要信息都是通过邮件来传递的哟,又或者是被领导布置了什么任务又或者是被抄送cc(carbon copy)了


为了确保工作效率,我们不得不快速浏览完(look through)所有的邮件,并且快速回复(dash off)掉重要的邮件。
