Cheap barb或cheap shot是指对某人的不必要的攻击性和不公平的意见。在这里,叙述者是在说那些像匕首一样刺在他身上的卑鄙言论既不新鲜也不独特,因此并不令人烦恼或不舒服。例子: The popular girl in my class made a cheap shot at me, saying that my dress made me look ugly and fat. (我学校的女孩骂我,说这件衣服让我看起来又丑又胖。) 示例: I heard a bully making cheap barbs at someone at school, so I intervened before the situation got serious. (我看到一进在学校对某人说脏话,所以我在情况变得更糟之前进行了干预。)
