核心句型:
If you hope to keep your job, you'd better get on the ball.
如果你不想丢工作,就最好用点心。
get on the ball直译过来就是:“把球抢到手”,这个短语的正确意思是:“工作出色,用心工作”。因此,当美国人说"If you hope to keep your job, you'd better get on the ball."时,他/她要表达的意思就是"If you want to have this job, you must try your best to do it."、"If you don't want to lose your job, you have to work hard."。
