在非正式的上下文中, settle down可以有兩個含義。在這個視頻中, settle down意味著冷靜下來。例子: Okay kids, settle down. We can't start the game unless everyone is quiet. (好吧,伙計們,冷靜下來。直到所有人都安靜Settle down, everyone. There are too many people talking at the same time. (大家冷靜一下,一下子說話的人太多了。)也就是說,過穩定的生活,組建家庭。例子: I've finally found the one. I'm ready to settle down and have kids. (我終於找到人了。我已經安定下來,準備要孩子了。) 示例: I'm not ready to settle down yet. I'm still so young and have so much I want to do. (我還沒有準備好安定下來。我還年輕,我還有很多事情要做。)
