用it‘s in her genes表达“在她的基因里”

我们用短语“it is in someone‘s genes”来形容某人与其父母的性格或职业选择很相似。

  • I love motor racing. The love of speed is in my genes. My father was an ambulance driver.
  • Ann is very ambitious. She can‘t help it, it‘s in her genes. Her parents arrived in this country penniless and now are big industrialists.

值得注意的是,单词“genealogy”的意思是家谱学、宗谱学。



  • I became interested in genealogy after my mother told me that her grandfather was a pirate.
