  迷你对话:

A:May doesn't get along very well with her mother-in-law.

玫和她的婆媳相处不好。

B:Yeah. That's just what is troubling John.

是呀,那就是John烦心的事情。

A:Poor John! He isbettering bother sides of this bread.

可怜的John!他要两头做人。

B:This situation isn't easy to handle.

这可真不好办。

地道表达:

butter bother sides of one's bread

小编讲解:

butter是动词,意思是“将黄油涂于面包上”,这个习语的字面意思就是“把里面和外面都涂上黄油”,引申为“左右逢源”。

支持范例:

Eg.Later, he married the richest girl in the town, and then his bread was buttered on both sides.

后来,他娶了全城最富有的姑娘,这就使他左右逢源,大走其运。

Eg.It does not do for a man in my position to butter on both sides of bread.

处在我这个位子的男人不左右逢源可不行。

Eg.What seems to have occurred 1 is that the Soviet 2 sought to butter on both sides of bread.

已经发生的情况是,苏联人试图左右逢源。

词海拾贝:

get along well with:相处得好

Eg.Feel for others and you will get along well with your friends.

将心比心,就能与朋友融洽地相处。

Eg.In spite 3 of his shortcoming, I get along well with him.

尽管他有缺点,可我与他相处很好。

Eg.I just didn't do well in school and I didn't get along with teachers.
