畢竟是知名公司，規(guī)章制度很嚴(yán)格，對(duì)員工的要求也很高。Catherine雖然很用功，但還是難免有不盡人意而受屈挨罵之時(shí)，這天，她因?yàn)楣ぷ魃系男〔铄e(cuò)遭到一個(gè)同事的當(dāng)場奚落，心里非常難過，甚至萌發(fā)了辭職的念頭。好朋友Jane勸她說：You have to roll with the punches if you want to survive in this business.凱瑟琳聽后心想：”在打孔機(jī)上滾動(dòng)？與打孔機(jī)打交道？莫非這是一門業(yè)內(nèi)技術(shù)？“她把想法說出來后，弄得Jane哭笑不得。

Catherine: I have to roll with the punches? But I haven't seen any punches in our company, what can I do?
凱瑟琳：圍著打孔機(jī)轉(zhuǎn)悠？我沒看到有什么打孔機(jī)啊，我又能做什么呢？

Tom: It's a metaphor, my dear! "Roll with the punches" means "to be able to deal with a series of difficult situations".
珍妮：親愛的，這是個(gè)比喻好不好！roll with the punches這個(gè)俚語說的是能處理一系列困難局面。

Catherine: Got it! I have to adjust myself to the situation and manage to cope with it. Thank you for advice.
凱瑟琳：我懂了。我得調(diào)整自己以適應(yīng)形勢，并且要能合理處理它。謝謝你的建議哦。
You have to roll with the punches if you want to survive in this business.如果你想在這一行生存下去的話，你得逆來順受。

punch這個(gè)詞除了有”打孔機(jī)“的意思，還有”打擊“之意；roll意思是”滾動(dòng)，來回轉(zhuǎn)悠“，roll with the punches從字面看，是說當(dāng)遭受打擊時(shí)，你得翻著身子來迎接。不難看出，這是沒辦法的辦法，既然避免不了，那挨打也得會(huì)挨呀，盡量讓疼痛減輕唄！所以，roll with the punches這個(gè)俚語的比喻義就是”逆來順受，適應(yīng)形勢以使自己獲得生存“。以后如果有朋友遇到類似難以避免的困境，你就可以安慰他說：You have to roll with the punches if you want to survive in this business.如果你想在這一行生存下去的話，你得逆來順受。

【英語情景劇】

Carl：Amanda, I could hardly bear the prejudice of my boss on me.
卡爾：阿曼達(dá),我?guī)缀鯚o法忍受老板對(duì)我的偏見了。

Amanda：I understand. But you have to roll with the punches if you want to survive in this business.
阿曼達(dá)：我明白，但你如果想在這一行生存的話，就得逆來順受啊。
