轻松日记商务职场篇 第195期:无风不起浪
日期:2013-07-03 16:18

(单词翻译:单击)

核心句型:
Where there's a smoke, there's fire.
无风不起浪。
Where there's a smoke, there's fire 直译过来就是:“哪里有烟就说明哪里有火”,这个短语的正确意思是:“无风不起浪”。因此,当美国人说"Where there's a smoke, there's fire."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"Everything happens for a reason."、"Nothing comes from nothing."、"Everything has its seed."。
情景对白:
Shirley: Everyone in our company is talking about her. Do you really think she stole those confidential documents?
雪莉:公司里人人都在谈论她的事。你真的认为她偷了那些机密文件吗?
Jane: Where there's a smoke, there's fire. She's a strongly supported suspect.
简:无风不起浪啊。她的嫌疑非常大。
搭配句积累:

③Do you really think he has taken bribes?

④I could hardly believe that he has done that as it is said.
