還記得習大大2017新年的祝福語麼?
擼起袖子加油幹!
用英語該怎樣表達呢?
情景簡介:
Ben發現了一家服裝公司招聘老年實習生的傳單,並遇到了自己的好友,兩個人一起閱讀了招聘的具體要求~~
了解語境,請猛戳視頻-The intern 實習生
Which brings me to today, when I was leaving the market and caught your flyer (傳單) out of the corner of my eye.
Hmm. "Seniors, be an intern (當一名實習生吧)."
Ben, I thought that was you (我就知道是你). Hi.
-Hey.
-What'd you find?
I think an Internet place is looking for senior interns.
-Am I reading this right (我沒看錯吧)?
-Let me see.
"Applicants must be over 65 years of age, have organizational skills, a genuine interest in e-commerce (對電子商務有濃厚的興趣) ," whatever that is, "and a roll-up-your-sleeves attitude."
小夥伴們,got it?
擼起袖子 就是 roll up your sleeves
在這裡加上連字符做形容詞使用,
a-roll-up-your-sleeves attitude
