商務(wù)英語(yǔ)播客第121課:企業(yè)好比一艘船
In this Business English Pod episode, we're going to look at how business idioms related to ships and sailing can be used to describe company performance. 今天的原汁原味英語(yǔ)播客中，我們將學(xué)習(xí)與船和航海有關(guān)的商務(wù)習(xí)語(yǔ)，它們用來(lái)描寫(xiě)公司的業(yè)績(jī)。
The image of a ship is a powerful one in business. The ship is like a company—a huge entity that must be steered toward success, maintained properly, and carefully guided away from dangers like storms and rocks. Employees are often seen as a crew of sailors, a group that must work together as a team. So sailing idioms frequently appear when we discuss business in English. 船對(duì)于一個(gè)企業(yè)而言，是強(qiáng)大有力的象征。一艘船就好比一個(gè)公司——一個(gè)實(shí)力雄厚，必將穩(wěn)步走向輝煌的實(shí)體，并且發(fā)展途中也需要盡量規(guī)避風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，比如暴風(fēng)雨和巖石。職員就好比水手，水手們必須團(tuán)結(jié)起來(lái)。因此當(dāng)我們談?wù)撘粋€(gè)企業(yè)時(shí)航海的習(xí)語(yǔ)經(jīng)常會(huì)被引用。
Today's episode starts a two-part series on sailing idioms. Lakisha and Warren are two colleagues discussing the decline of Trussock's, an engineering firm that has been faltering since a new CEO took over. 今天這一集中我們將從兩方面來(lái)談航海有關(guān)的習(xí)語(yǔ)。拉奇莎和沃倫是兩個(gè)同事，他們正在談?wù)撟詮男律先蔚目偛脕?lái)了之后，一個(gè)工程公司的動(dòng)蕩。
