To turn on its head 完全改變
當我們說 to turn (something) on its head, 這個短語的意思就是完全改變什么事情。另外它也指完全錯誤的理解了一件事情。
今日小常識
The Indian-born British sculptor Anish Kapoor and structural designer Cecil Balmond are the brains behind the ArcelorMittal Orbit tower placed at the heart of the Olympic Park in London. The 114.5m structure is the UK's tallest sculpture.
倫敦奧運公園里的建筑 ArcelorMittal Orbit 塔是印度出生的英國雕塑家 Anish Kapoor 和結構設計師 Cecil Balmond 的共同杰作。這個高 114.5 米的雕塑作品目前是全英國最高的雕塑。
例句
The internet has turned the music industry on its head. Today many people would rather buy their favourite tracks straight from websites rather than a shop.
Picasso turned art on its head.
請注意
當我們看到 turn heads 這個短語時，意思就是指某人特別有意思或者很有魅力，以至于其他人的目光不由自主的被他們吸引。
Thelma was used to turning heads. She’s always taken care of her figure and walks around with the best clothes.
