职场英语流行美语对话:brainstorm 绞尽脑汁,费尽心机
brain指"智能,脑力,智慧",storm指"激发".两者的合成词的意思即为"突然想到",颇像汉语成语"灵机一动".例如:Then I got a brainstorm.(于是我灵机一动,计上心来。)
A: I hear that you're designing a new building. Have you finished it? 我听说你正在设计一座新建筑,是否已经完成了?
B: Not yet. I am brainstorming for an unique one. 还没有。我正费尽心机,想设计一座风格独特的建筑。
A: Why not ask Jack to help? Maybe he can give you some novel ideas. 为什么不让杰克帮帮你呢?或许他能给你一点新奇的主意。
B: That's a good idea. 说得对。
