【情景再現(xiàn)】
最近Catherine的一位同事很器重他的一位下屬,據(jù)說(shuō)那位下屬以前工作不很積極,領(lǐng)導(dǎo)還曾打算辭了他??山裉炷俏煌逻€提拔了那位下屬。Catherine和同事談起這件事時(shí),同事說(shuō):He scored a bull's eye with his last assignment.
He scored a bull's eye with his last assignment.上次任務(wù)他完成的太棒了。
bull's eye字面意思是“公牛的眼睛”,引申義為”靶心“;score是動(dòng)詞,意為”進(jìn)球,得分“,例如:Hughes scored two goals before half-time. 休斯在上半場(chǎng)進(jìn)了兩個(gè)球。所以這里score a bull's eye意思就是”正中靶心,恰到好處“,指事情做得跟到位。

Shirley: Yeah, he scored a bull's eye with his last assignment.
雪莉:是啊,上次任務(wù)他完成的太棒了。
