輕松日記商務(wù)職場(chǎng)篇第236期:別挑剔了
Don't knock it!
別挑剔了!
Don't knock it 字面意思是：“不要敲它”，你可不要被它的表面意思給迷惑了哦。knock在此處表示：“找茬，挑剔，非難，抨擊”，所以這個(gè)習(xí)語的真正含義是：“不要太挑剔”。因此，當(dāng)美國(guó)人說"Don't knock it!"時(shí)，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"Don't be so fussy!"、"Don't be too particular about others!"、"Don't be so finicky!"。
情景對(duì)白：
Lenna: I'm thinking about changing a job with a better salary and more comfortable working environment.
蕾娜：我在考慮換一份薪水更高、工作環(huán)境更好的工作。
Todd: Honey, don't knock it! You have got a good one.
托德：親愛的，別挑剔了!你已經(jīng)有了一份不錯(cuò)的工作了。
搭配句積累：
①I have to answer hundreds of phones every day. I hate my job.
我每天要接幾百個(gè)電話。我恨死現(xiàn)在的工作了。
②I don't want to work here because there is even no heating in winter.
我不想在這兒工作了，因?yàn)槎爝B暖氣都沒有。
③Many people are out of work while you are lucky enough to have one.
許多人都失業(yè)了，而你還有份工作，夠幸運(yùn)了。
④I'm fed up with working overtime frequently. I want to leave.
我受夠了老是加班，我要辭職。
單詞：
1. finicky adj. 過分講究的，過分注意的
Even the most finicky eater will find something appetizing here.
即使是最挑剔的食客在這里也會(huì)找到讓人胃口大開的美食。
Whether dealing with a demanding boss, difficult client or finicky users, you have to impress them with your attitude and service.
無論是與要求過多的老板、難處的客戶還是吹毛求疵的客戶,你應(yīng)加深他們對(duì)你態(tài)度與服務(wù)的認(rèn)可。
