Jenny工作上很懒散,从不积极完成任务。而Catherine则正好相反,她的业绩总是能比Jenny好出一大截。当Jenny问她成功的秘诀时,Catherine笑着说:I never leave it down to the wire.


I never leave it down to the wire.我从来不把工作拖到最后关头。


down to the wire是个俚语,意思是“直到最后,接近最后期限”,所以leave it down to the wire意思就是"直到最后才开始做事,把事情拖到最后关头“。


【英语情景剧】




Jane:You always work better than me. You're so clever.

简:你的工作总是比我做的好,你真聪明啊!


Shirley:That's because I never leave it down to the wire.

雪莉:那是因为我从来不把工作拖到最后关头才开始做。
