有一部好莱坞大片叫《不可能的任务(Mission Impossible)》,可结局总是主人公克服重重困难把任务给完成了。在英语里,有一个很可爱的习短语也经常被用来形容一些因为局面混乱而不太容易完成的任务,这个短语就是herding cats。大概因为猫咪都散漫成性,无法被驯服吧。
Herding cats is an idiomatic saying that refers to an attempt to control or organize a class of entities which are uncontrollable or chaotic. It implies a task that is extremely difficult or impossible to do, primarily due to chaotic factors.
Herding cats是一个习语,指试图去控制或管理一群无法控制或者出于混乱状态的个体。其含义为,这是一项极度困难或者不可能完成的任务,而主要原因就是其中的混乱因素。
For example:
Managing volunteers from fourteen different organizations is like herding cats.
管理来自14个不同组织的志愿者简直像放猫一样,无从下手。
