Jenny被派到美国拓展业务,可她流连于美国的大好风光,以至于工作的事情一拖再拖。可Jenny不仅不着急,认为工作的事情很简单,回国前两天随便做做就能搞定。她的美国朋友见状提醒她:You cannot make an omelet without 1 breaking 3 eggs.


You cannot make an omelet without breaking eggs.做任何事如果不努力的话,是得不到结果的。


这是个谚语,字面意思是“想吃鸡蛋卷,就得打鸡蛋“,意译就是做任何事都是需要付出努力的。这里的without引导的介词短语,相当于一个if条件状语从句,全句可以转换为You cannot make an omelet if you don't break 2 eggs。


【英语情景剧】




Jane:Can you do the work 4 for me? It's too hard 5.

简:你能帮我做这个工作吗?太难做了。


Shirley:You'd better 6 try 7 again 8. You cannot make omelet without breaking eggs.

雪莉:你最好再试一下。做任何事如果不努力的话,是得不到结果的。
