迷你对话学地道口语第31期:眼中钉,肉中刺

I've never harmed them.,不知为什么我成了他们的眼中钉了。我可从未错待过他们。,迷你对话：,A:The stepmother was very wicked. She couldn't stand a happy smile on the boy's face.,那个继母坏透了，她看那孩子笑一笑都难受。,B:And?,那怎么样呢？,A:And she did her best to pull out the thorn in her flesh and the boy lost whatever made him happy.,她想尽办法除掉她的眼中钉，那孩子生活中的快乐全没了。,B:Poor child!,可怜的孩子。,词海拾贝：,pull out：拔除,You might help us pull out these weeds.,请帮助我们拔除这些杂草。,You should pull out this tooth.,你必须把这颗牙齿拔掉。
