核心句型:
He needs to be kept in line.
要好好管束他一下。
keep sb. in line直譯過來就是:“讓某人排隊(duì)”,這個(gè)短語(yǔ)的正確意思是:“管束,守規(guī)矩,讓某人老實(shí)點(diǎn)”。因此,當(dāng)美國(guó)人說"He needs to be kept in line."時(shí),他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"He needs to discipline himself."、"He souldbe taught to behave himself."。
情景對(duì)白:

Boss: He is unaware of his behaviour. He needs to be kept in line.
老板:他太不注意個(gè)人行為了,要好好管束他一下。
