39. Can you give me a hand, Mike? Could you give me a ride?
点睛
can you和could you都是表示请求的句型，意为“你能……吗？”
give me a hand意为“帮我一个忙”，give me a ride意为“载我一程”。与此类似的说法还有：give me a reason“给我一个理由”，give me a chance“给我一次机会”，give me a hug“给我一个拥抱”。
此外，还有一个非常口语化的说法give me a break，它的意思更微妙。如：
1) You really think Jennifer is the prettiest girl in our class? Give me a break! There're several girls in our class who are better-looking than she is.（在这句话里，give me a break是表示不同意对方的意见。）
2) Look, kid, I'm working on a term paper that's due tomorrow. I promise to play the video game with you after dinner, OK? Come on; give me a break so I can finish this!（在这句话里，give me a break表示“你别烦我啦”。）
