　　我聽(tīng)說(shuō)你已經(jīng)讓你的秘書(shū)來(lái)負(fù)責(zé)籌辦這個(gè)項(xiàng)目了。她的工作能力如何呀?

　　地道表達(dá)

　　go the whole hog

　　1. 解詞釋義

　　Go whole hog是一個(gè)俚語(yǔ)，起源于十七世紀(jì)的英國(guó)。當(dāng)時(shí)的英國(guó)稱(chēng)一個(gè)先令(shilling)為一個(gè)hog，而一個(gè)hog能買(mǎi)不少東西，go whole hog就是一次把一個(gè)先令全部花完，一點(diǎn)不剩。后來(lái)引申為“徹底完成某事，全力以赴完成某事”。表示去徹底或全力以赴去完成某事，在短語(yǔ)的后面用介詞in，即為：go the whole hogin doing something or something。

　　2. 拓展例句

　　e.g. They painted the kitchen and then decide to go the whole hog and redecorate the otherroom as well.

　　他們粉刷了廚房，后來(lái)又決心干到底，把其他房間也都修飾了一番。

　　e.g. Now that we've gone as far as this, we must either go the whole hog or else drop italtogether. I'm in favour of putting up a fight, myself.

　　到這地步，一不做二不休，我是打算拚一拚了!

　　e.g. She went whole hog in planning he New Year's Eve party.

　　她全心全力籌辦新年晚會(huì)。

　　e.g. When Bob became interested in model airplanes, he went the whole hog.

　　鮑伯對(duì)模型飛機(jī)有興趣后，他就全心全意去做。

　　Ps 1：have sb do sth的意思是“叫某人做某事”。例如：

　　I have his daughter fetch a doctor here. 我叫他的女兒去叫醫(yī)生來(lái)了。

　　Ps 2：plan the program：籌辦這個(gè)項(xiàng)目，計(jì)劃這個(gè)項(xiàng)目 How about....：......如何?
