輕松日記商務(wù)職場(chǎng)篇第193期:麻煩

核心句型：
I'm sorry to hit you with this problem.

很抱歉把這個(gè)問(wèn)題拋給你。

hit 在俚語(yǔ)中有“騷擾、麻煩”的意思，所以hit you with this problem的意思是說(shuō)：“這件事麻煩你了”。因此，當(dāng)美國(guó)人說(shuō)"I'm sorry to hit you with this problem."時(shí)，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"I'm sorry to leave you with this problem."、"I'm sorry to bother you with this problem."。

情景對(duì)白：
Jane: How is the project going, Shirley? I'm sorry to hit you with this problem.

簡(jiǎn)：雪莉，那個(gè)項(xiàng)目進(jìn)行得怎么樣了?很抱歉把這個(gè)問(wèn)題拋給你。

Shirley: You can count on it. I'll keep my eyes on it.

雪莉：放心吧，我會(huì)跟進(jìn)的。
