Our story begins by me saying that, "On the way to the office, I was thinking about what I have on my agenda 1 today." 故事开头我说,“在前往办公室的路上,我在想我今天有什么日程安排。”
Your agenda, "agenda," means your plan for today — what are the things that you have to do today. 你的日程安排(agenda),是指你今天的计划——你今天必须要做的事情。
This could include meetings; it could include phone calls; 这个安排可能包括各种会议;可能包括要接打的电话;
you could have many different things on your agenda. 你的日程安排上可以有很多不同的事情。
There's another expression, "to have an agenda." 还有另外一个表达,“to have an agenda”。
To have an agenda means that you have a plan, sometimes a secret plan that you don't tell anyone about that makes you want to do a certain thing. “To have an agenda”是指你有一个计划,有时是你不想告诉任何人的、你想要做某事的秘密计划。
It's like having an opinion and trying to get other people to do what you want them to do; that's to have an agenda. 就像你有个想法,并试图让别人去做你所想之事,那就叫做“有规划”
But here, agenda just means a list of things that you're going to do. 但在这里,日程安排只是指一系列你将要做的事。
"When I get to my desk, there is a stack 2 of new memos 3 and papers in my inbox." “当我到达我的办公桌的时候,我的收件箱里有一沓新的备忘录和文件。”
Stack, you'll remember, is when you have thin things on top of each other. 你要记住,“Stack”是指叠放在彼此之上的薄东西。
You can have a stack of pancakes; here we have a stack of papers and memos. 你可以有一沓薄煎饼;这里我们有一沓文件和备忘录。
1 agenda
n.议事日程,记事册
- We now proceed to the next item on the agenda.我们现在着手讨论下一项议题。
- If there is no objection,the agenda is adopted.如果没有意见,议程就通过了。
