1. What’s cooking for lunch today?

这句话是问做什么饭吃。一般我们可能会说:What do you cook for lunch? 不过在英文中,cook这个词也可以主动形式表示被动:What’s cooking for…? 做什么吃?

此外,在口语中,你还会听到“be cooking”的另一个用法,意指“to be happening or being planned, often secretly”,即是“发生或筹划什么事”。你甚至会听到有人用这句话来问候别人:

What’s cooking?

相当于说:What’s happening?

我还没决定。
