Well, can't you drop one course and pick it up next semester?
点睛
drop one course的意思是“退掉一门课程”。drop的用法在前面已经讲到,这里不再赘述。pick up在本句中意为“重新学习,继续学习”,正好与drop的意思相对。如:
Today we will pick up where we finished last Friday. 今天我们将接着上周五的内容继续学习。
考点归纳
pick up含义丰富,除了“重新学习”以外,还有很多其他常用含义:
“收拾干净”。如:
I've got to pick this room up before the guests arrive. 我必须在客人到来之前把房间收拾干净。
“(车、船等)在半路上搭人”。如:
Now let's figure out whose car will stop to pick us up. 让我们想一下,谁的车能在中途捎上我们。
“有起色;(生意等)好起来”。如:
The hotel business always picks up in summer. 旅馆的生意常常是在夏季开始好转。
“自然学会”。如:
Bob has never had a French teacher; he picked the language up by himself. 鲍勃从来没有法语老师,他是自己学会这门语言的。
“听见;看见”。如:
The dog's sense of hearing is so sharp that it can pick up the sound from afar. 狗的听觉很敏锐,它能听到远方的声音。
“加快”。如:
