   核心句型:


  Do you mind if I pick your brains?
  你介意我向你请教吗?
  pick someone's brain 直译过来就是:“摘掉某人的脑袋”,这个短语的正确意思是:“向别人学习和讨教,在解决问题中采用某人的想法”。因此,当美国人说"Do you mind if I pick your brains?"时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"Can I ask you some questions?"、"Would you mind if I consult you about something?"、"May I seek some information from you?"。
  情景对白:
  Colleague:I have some problems with my work. Do you mind if I pick your brains?
  同事:我工作中遇到一些问题,你介意我向你请教吗?
  Benjamin: Of course not. Please go ahead.
  本杰明:当然不会了。请说吧。
