She was as cool as a cucumber.
许多人第一次在老外的口中听到「as cool as cucumber」的时候，常常会产生这样的疑惑：啥？跟黄瓜一样酷？我要跟黄瓜一样干啥？老外的脑回路我不懂！
实际上，这个短语用英语解释过来是：very calm and relaxed ，especially in a difficult situation, 是一个英文俗语，常常用来形容人“非常冷静放松、镇定自若”。一根小小的黄瓜突然就高大上起来了有没有？下面一起来学习这个表达吧：
She was as cool as a cucumber.
她镇定自若。
💎
cool 有“凉快”的意思，但在这里，它表示“镇定”，cucumber 就是“黄瓜”， as cool as a cucumber, 千万不要理解为“跟黄瓜一样凉快”，而是说：非常淡定、冷静，镇定自若。
🗣
我们在读这句话的时候，要注意这里有一个连读，as，和 a可以连读成 as-a.
