相关知识点请参见以下讲义:
Ship someone off:To send someone or something to a certain location, often abruptly, hastily, or unceremoniously perhaps as punishment. (将某人遣送至某处)
这个短语在口语里多用于负面情绪,通常指强行遣送某人至一个令他不爽、不适且较为偏远的地方,用以威胁、警告某人,以宣泄某种情绪上的不满。ship sb to somewhere与send sb to somewhere,主要的区别在于:1、说ship时,带有负面情绪;2、说ship时,一般是指将某人遣送至较为偏远的地方。
E.G.1:If you so much as smile at that boy, so help me, I will ship you off to Camp Hennessey. (DH S02E11)
E.G.2:You’re so jealous of Danielle, you tried to ship her off to New York? (DH S03E19)

Note (n.) a particular quality or tone that reflects or expresses a mood or attitude. In addition to bad notes, there can be low notes, high notes, ominous [‘ɒmɪnəs] notes, and notes of uncertainty.
