Fifty years ago, the first humans stepped foot on the moon,but has anyone ever jumped over the moon?
50年前，人类第一次踏上月球，但是有人跳过月球吗？
Over the moon是什么意思呢？一看到这个短语，也许有人就想起“我在仰望，月亮之上，有多少梦想在自由地飞翔....”
Over the moon可不能翻译成“月亮之上”哦！
下面我们先看看这个对话吧：
对话：
A: Jonathon, Guess what? My book is nominated for North American wildlife Pop-Up Book for first time Writer Prize.
A: Jonathon，你猜怎么着? 我的书第一次被提名为北美野生动物立体书作家奖。
B: Wow, you must be over the moon.
B: 哇，你一定高兴坏了。
A: I am,Jonathon. I could not be happier.
A: 当然，Jonathon，我高兴极了。
B: What was the name of that prize again...?
B: 那个奖叫什么来着?
总了个结：
To be over the moon means to be extremely happy about something.
To be over the moon意思是对某事非常高兴。
This is expression likely comes from a short children’s poem from the 16 century called “Hey,diddle, diddle diddle”,but we don’t really know why “over the moon” came to mean what it does today.
这个表达很可能来自16世纪的一首儿童短诗，名为“Hey,diddle, diddle, diddle”，但我们真的不知道为什么“over the moon”会有如今所说的这个意思。
举个例子：
over the moon [ˈəʊvə(r) ðə muːn]
非常高兴;乐翻了天;狂喜
