鬧鐘叫不醒

英文:sleep through the alarm (v.)

說明:片語動詞 sleep through (something) 意為「睡著沒被 (某事物) 吵醒」。對於習慣晚睡或不習慣早起的人,鬧鐘往往發揮不了作用。「習慣早起的人」叫做 morning person。

例句:

  • Sometimes if I’m really sleepy, I’ll just sleep through the alarm! (有時如果我真的很睏,連鬧鐘都叫不醒的!)
  • Brenda didn’t hear the storm last night. She must have slept through it. (布蘭達昨晚沒有聽見暴風雨的聲音。她肯定睡得太熟了)
  • I am not a morning person. (我不是個習慣早起的人)
