職場(chǎng)社交英語(yǔ) Lesson 61:咱倆都是詐包
SCENE① A 吉娜與戴夫繼續(xù)在停車(chē)場(chǎng)說(shuō)話
【咱倆都是詐包】
Zina: When Vince didn't give you what you wanted, you decided to sell some secrets to WebTracker?
吉娜: 文斯給不了你要的待遇當(dāng)時(shí),你就決定賣(mài)情報(bào)給“網(wǎng)路搜尋家”?
Dave: That's right.
戴夫: 沒(méi)錯(cuò)。
Zina: So you are really my secret admirer, or did you just want to 1) seduce me to find out more secrets?
吉娜: 那你真的是在暗戀我,還是在引誘我泄露情報(bào)給你?
Dave: A little bit of both, to be honest.
戴夫: 老實(shí)說(shuō),兩者都有一點(diǎn)吧。
Zina: You know what, Dave, I think I like you more now than I did before.
吉娜: 你知道嗎,戴夫,我現(xiàn)在比以前更喜歡你。
Dave: I guess we're both snakes, aren't we?
戴夫: 我猜咱倆都是詐包,你說(shuō)是不是?
Zina: I like you, Dave, but I can show you no mercy. I'm going to have to 2) crush you and WebTracker both.
吉娜: 我喜歡你,戴夫,但我可不會(huì)手下留情。我得要把你還有“網(wǎng)路搜尋家”通通整垮。

【a little bit of both 兼而有之】
a little bit of both字面上的意思是“兩者都有一點(diǎn)”,在使用上,可以用來(lái)回答對(duì)方的問(wèn)題,若對(duì)方問(wèn)到你兩種可能,你覺(jué)得兩個(gè)因素都有,你就可以用上a little bit of both,來(lái)表達(dá)“兼而有之”的概念。

我有點(diǎn)怕跟老板說(shuō)話。
