昨晚我熬了一整夜。

pull an all-nighter 的意思是：“通宵熬夜，开夜车”。这个短语一般用在年轻人的口语中，经常指考试之前熬通宵地死记硬背，也可指工作时为了某个大项目的会议或者展示通宵地工作。因此，当美国人说"I pulled anall-nighter last night."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"I stayed up all night."、"I burned the midnight oil last night."、"I worked until deep into the night yesterday."。

情景对白：
Boss: Ben, our client is very satisfied with your proposal.

老板：本，我们的客户对你的方案特别满意。

Benjamin: Oh, great! I pulled an all-nighter last night. And it has finally paid off.

本杰明：噢，太好了。昨晚我熬了一整夜，那些功夫终于没有白费。

搭配句积累：
①It's remarkable that you solved that problem!

你解决了那个问题，真是太了不起了。

②How could you make out the plan so efficiently?

你怎么这么有效率，这么快就做出这份计划书了?

③You look very tired. What's up?

你看起来很疲惫，怎么了?

④It's your fourth cup now. Why do you drink so much coffee?

你已经喝第四杯了，干嘛喝这么多咖啡呀?

单词：
pay off 取得成功，有报偿

他得用余生来还清那笔贷款。

Sandra was determined to become a doctor and her persistence paid off.

桑德拉决心成为医生，她的坚持取得了成功。
