情景对白:
Jane: That fast-food corporation went bankrupt last week.
简:那家快餐集团上周倒闭了。
Shirley: They were hoisted by their own petard. Many customers had food poisoning.
雪莉:他们是自食恶果,那么多客人都食物中毒了。
Jane: Well, you hit the nail on the head!
简:嗯,你说得一点没错。
核心句型:
You hit the nail on the head!
你说得一点没错。
hit the nail on the head 字面意思是:“敲钉子的钉帽”,木工敲钉子时,正敲在它扁平的顶上,才能钉得恰到好处。这个短语引申而来的意思是“恰到好处,正中要害,一针见血”。因此,当美国人说"You hit the nail on the head!"时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"You hit the point!"、"You are right about this!"。
搭配句积累:
①The main problem is their attitude towards customers.
