John:

It's like an oven in here! You must be roasting!

Martha:

Actually, I'm just comfortable

John:

You've got to be kidding me. It has to be over 95 degrees in here!

Martha:

What can I say? I'm a cold-blooded person. The warmer, the better, as far as I'm concerned

John:

Well, can we at least open a window and get some ventilation in here?

Martha:

Knock yourself out

John:

Thanks, I will.

请教各位托友，红色部分是什么意思？？？

konck oneself out on sth是在...上下工夫,花大力气的意思

J觉得房间里太热，问M可否开一扇窗通通风，M说可以

觉得konck oneself out在这里就是指你可以这么做

我认为是“不行”的意思。最后一句话是幽默。

这是哪年的题目到底哪种说法对啊

楼主呢

我现在改变想法了。认为它的意思是：请便。（暗含有调侃的意味，因为该短语有使人失去知觉之意）
