學英語是個循序漸進的過程,每天掌握好一個英語口語表達,利用閒暇時間日積月累學英語。今天的英語口語表達是:have a finger in every pie.
這個口語表達可不是:「在每個派裡都有一根手指」的意思哦~!而是:to be involved in a lot of different activities and have influence over them, especially when other people think that this is annoying.就是「參與其事」的意思,尤其指某人多管閒事,到處幹預。
He is a big potato in the company, and he has a finger in every pie. If you need someone to show you the ropes, you should ask him.
他是公司大人物,公司的每件事他都參與其中,你需要找人傳授經驗,你應該問問他。
You have to bear the corresponding responsibilities if you wanna have a finger in every pie. Otherwise, just pull the plug on it.
如果你要多管閒事的話,你必須承擔相應的責任,否則你還是停止這樣吧!
下面我們再看幾個例句,強化一下這個表達:
He has a finger in every pie and is never short of good ideas for making the next deal.
他每件事都參與其中,而且從來不缺做成下筆交易的好主意。
You shouldn't be so busy and stressed if you didn't have a finger in every pie.
如果你不多管閒事的話,你也不會這麼忙碌。
