核心句型：You'd better be back in the saddle 1.
你最好重振旗鼓。
be back in the saddle 直译为“重上马鞍”，这个短语的真正意思是：“重整旗鼓”。因此当美国人说:"You'd better be back in the saddle."时，他要传达的意思就是："Don't be depressed 2."、"You'd better make a new start."。
情景对白：
Jane:Shirley, I am still motadmittedby that famous companyeven thoughI had taken several interviews there. How disappointed I am.
简：雪莉，我多次参加那家名企的面试，但都没有被录用。我真失望啊！
Shirley:Sweetie, you'd better be back in the saddle. Everything will be fine.
雪莉：亲爱的，你要重振旗鼓，一切都会好起来的。
搭配句积累：
①I havefailed so many times that I don't want to go to a job interview any more!
我已经失败过这么多次，不想再参加任何面试了。
②I had prepared so much for this interview, but I failed again.
我为这场面试做了那么多准备，但还是失败了。
③Oh, my life is such a big failure!
我的人生真是个悲剧。
④The bossscoldedme severely 3 for my fault and fired me.
因为犯了错，老板严厉地责骂了我之后把我解雇了。

他想加入，但没能说服我们。---认为合格而接受。

该短语是表示让步的连词，表示“尽管如何，仍然如何”之意，在大部分情况下和 although 可通用。
She trusted him with her life even though she knew others will not.
尽管知道别人不会相信，她还是完全相信他。
3.so...that. 表示有一定原因的连词。既可以单纯的表示原因，也可以用来强调结果。

等同于动词 blame ，blame的一个重要特征是：批评某人时用 somebody is to blame.这个句型。

- The bicycle saddle is too high for this child.这辆自行车车座对这孩子来说太高了。
