(单词翻译:单击)

核心句型:
I can hook you up.
我可以帮你牵线。
hood sb. up直译过来就是:“把某人挂起来”,这个短语的正确意思是:“把某人介绍给某人”。因此,当美国人说:"I can hook you up."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"I can act as the go-between."、"I can introduce you to someone else."。
情景对白:
Jane: Shirley, I want to be transferred to the sales department. There are more opportunities for advancement there.
简:雪莉,我想调到销售部去,那里有更多的晋升机会。
Shirley: Well, I get along well with the sales director. I can hook you up.
雪莉:嗯,我跟销售总监关系还不错,我可以帮你牵线。
