1 Least you can do is open up this door and tell me to my face why you didn't call me yesterday.

"do sth. to sb's face" 的结构表示“当着某人的面做......”

例如:

She praised the lad to his face, and said he was well-grown and very much improved.

她当着孩子的面夸奖他,说他长得好,比以前大有进步了。

More than anything else in the world, I dislike people saying behind my back things they wouldn't say to my face.

我最不喜欢有话不当着我的面讲,而在我背后乱讲。

2 Why'd you stand me up last night?

中文中常说“放某人鸽子”,意思是“爽约”,而英文中用“stand sb. up”,这个词组表示同样的意思。

例如:We are supposed to meet at the students' union yesterday but she stood me up.

我们昨天约好在学生会见面,课时她让我空等一场。

You are not going to stand me up again, are you?

你不会再失约吧?

3 I’m sick of being a fuckin' disappointment.

"be sick of" 的意思是“对......厌倦”,"受够了"。表示后者时,相当于词组“be fed up with”。

例如:I’m sick of your complaining. Just pack it in, will you?

你老发牢骚我都烦死了。别说了,行不行?

I’m sick of all this rain.

老下雨,我腻烦死了。
