听力原文

17. The chocolate cake looks great, but I have to watch my weight.

点睛

watch作为动词原意是“看”,而这里“留意,监督”。因此,watch my weight含义为“注意我的体重”,言外之意就是不能吃这块巧克力蛋糕,否则会变胖的。

考点归纳

watch的用法还有:
Watch the birdie! 瞧这边!/照相啦!(美国俚语)
Watch for fires! 小心火灾!
Watch yourself. 留点神。
Watch closely. I'll make turns. 盯紧点,我要转弯了。
Watch your step. 小心脚下。(相当于Mind your step.)
Watch your mouth. 说话留点神。(用于警告别人,相当于Watch your tongue/language.或Be careful of what you say.)
