   今天我们要讲的美国习惯用语是:bank on. 大家都知道, Bank是银行的意思,把钱存进银行里就可以放心了,所以 bank on 就是依赖、指望和相信的意思。我希望大家都能bank on me,也就是信任我,听我给大家解释这些美国习惯用语。


  下面让我们先看一个例子。 一名男子在讲述自己的过去时特别表达了对一位亲人的感谢。他是这样说的:
  例句-1:When I was younger, I was badly injured and had to have many operations. I'm so thankful for having my sister in my life. Whenever I needed help, I knew that she would take care of me. I could always bank on her.
  这个人说:我小时候受过重伤,做了很多次手术,还好有我姐姐在。我知道,不管我什么时候需要帮助,她都会照顾我。我随时随地可以依赖她。
  有些时候,我们意识不到身边有亲人是件多么幸运的事,遇到困难的时候可以有人依靠。也许你身边就有这样可以 bank on 的亲朋至友,千万别忘了告诉他们,他们的存在对你有多重要。

  大学毕业找工作是人生的一件大事。应聘的大学生需要具备哪些素质,才会受到用人单位的青睐呢?让我们听听下面这段忠告。
  例句-2: Although a degree from a famous university might help you get a good job, don't bank on it.  Today's employers are looking for candidates who can demonstrate leadership, creativity, flexibility 1 and interpersonal skills. Those are skills you can depend on to get you hired.
  这段话说的是:虽然名牌大学的毕业证书可能会帮你找到一份好工作,但是绝不要想当然。 今天的雇主寻找的是那些表现出领导才能、创造性、变通能力和善于人际关系的员工。这些能力都能帮你找到工作。
  今天的大学生确实不能“两耳不闻天下事,一心只读圣贤书”,一定要走到社会中,在实践中锻炼。其实,不管是参加实习、做兼职、还是加入俱乐部和运动队,都能帮助学生培养上面这些能力。

  • Her great strength lies in her flexibility.她的优势在于她灵活变通。
