shut someone down是一种非正式的表达方式,意思是拒绝、强烈反对、停止或阻碍某事的发生。在这里,演讲者使用I'll shut you down的表达来分享他收到的违反规则的警告。示例: I wanted to go on holiday to Hawaii, but my parents didn't like my idea and shut it down immediately. (我想去夏威夷度假,但我的父母不喜欢,他们立即反对。) 示例: I tried to get that girl's number but she shut me down. (我试图得到她的号码,但我被拒绝了。)
