大家好，接待来的饼哥英语的频道，今天我们分享一个很是有用且隧道的表达——serve time, 这个短语的寄义不是指“服务时间”，其正确的寄义是：serve time 服刑；蹲牢狱After serving his time, the assailant will be deported back to his home country. 在牢狱服刑后，袭击者将会被遣返回他的国家。There's no need to harass him; he served his time and paid his debt to society.没有须要去骚扰他了，他蹲了牢狱而且向社会归还了债务。The CEO is now serving time for his role in defrauding thousands of customers. CEO现在在蹲牢狱，由于他欺骗了成千上万的客户。

No way am I getting involved with your scheme. I have no interest in serving time again.我不会牵扯进你的阴谋，我没有兴趣去蹲牢狱。After the felon served his time, he was released from prison.在重罪犯服刑之后，他被从牢狱放出来。
