核心句型：
The new manager leaves this project at the mercy of his subordinates.
新任经理将这个项目完全交由手下去负责。
at the mercy of直译过来就是：“在……的仁慈下”，这个短语的正确意思是：“受……支配，由……负责”。因此，当美国人说"The new manager leaves this project at the mercy of his subordinates."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"The new manager leaves this project in the charge of his subordinates."、"The new manager lets his subordinates manage the project."。
