Hints 語言提示
1.take a break意為“休息一下”，同have a rest.
2.be up to one's neck (ears) in 此短語表示某人需要做的事情太多，都要堆到脖子或耳朵那么高了，意即某人非常忙碌。如:I'm up to my neck in the whole mess. 我忙得一塌糊。I'm up to my ears in lave. 我愛得天昏地暗。此外，與 neck 有關(guān)的短語 break the neck of... 則表示“做完(工作等)最難的部分”。需要注意的是，I'm up to here. (說話時(shí)帶動(dòng)作，將一只手橫放在脖子前，掌心向下)這一句的意思則與上述幾句話貌同而實(shí)不同。該句表示“我受夠了”，意同I've
had enough. 或 I'm fed up。
3.he under much pressure = be under a lot of pressure 壓力很大
4.How come? 本句是非?？谡Z化的表達(dá)，與 Dialogue 3中的“Why is that?”一句意思大致相同。類似的表達(dá)方式還有 How comes it that...? (怎么會……了呢?)
5.deadline 名詞，原意為“(囚犯逾越時(shí)即格殺勿論的)死線”，后引申為“截止時(shí)間”，可構(gòu)成詞組 meet a deadline, 意為“趕期”。
b.sedentary a. 坐定不動(dòng)的; n. 坐著工作的人
7.a pay rise 加薪
8.give full play to (one's skills / one's speciality)充分發(fā)揮(某人的能力/某人的特長)。play 在詞組中為名詞，意為“活動(dòng)范圍，才能的運(yùn)用”。
