a bolt out of the blue 晴天霹雳
a bolt out of the blue 晴天霹雳Bolt 是闪电，blue 在这儿是指蓝色的天空。 Like a bolt out of the blue
的意思就是晴天霹雳，也就是出乎意外、没料想到。有时，你花几个小时也解不开一道数学题。可是，当你不再去想它的时候，你脑子里突然出现了答案。人们还经常用
like a bolt out of the blue 来形容车祸。来看下面这个例子：
A driver may testify that he was going the normal speed limit
when a truck appeared in front of him out of the blue and he
did not have time to stop.
一个开车的人可能会在作证时说，正当他以正常的速度行驶的时候，一辆卡车突然出现在他面前，他来不及刹车。
我们再看看下面这个学生讲的话:
The announcement that the president of our university was
quitting to go to another school hit us like a bolt out of the
blue. He's always said he liked it here so much he would stay
until he retired.
我们大学校长宣布他决定辞职到另外一个学校去工作。我们都感到很突然，因为他老是说他很喜欢这个学校，要一直在这儿工作到退休。
