所中英惯用例句:
  • 然而，托利党下院议员纳丁娜·多瑞斯对这一建议提出批评，她说高跟鞋带来的额外高度能在工作场所对女性有所帮助。
    Nadine Dorries, the Tory MP, however criticised the motion and said the extra height heels give women can help them when in the workplace.
  • 你可以调查你所在行业的公司，或者，加入在线社交网站，或是问问父母的朋友和参加相关的职业组织。这些都能帮你建立新的联系。可以先用电子邮件和别人取得联系，不要明确地提出想获得工作，这会使对方心生戒备。对他们的职业生涯表示好奇，然后，问一问是否能同他们一起吃午饭或喝咖啡。
    Learn about new contacts by researching firms in your industry, joining social networking sites like LinkedIn, asking your parents' friends, and joining relevant professional associations. Approach individuals by e-mail first, and don't put them on the defensive by asking for a job outright. Instead, show curiosity about their career path and see if they'll agree to lunch or coffee.
  • 不从底层做起你怎么能掌握发展所需要的技能？这就好比连狗刨都没学会就想在奥运会上拿金牌。把你刚毕业后的工作看成职业生涯中的临时站点而不是永久站点。也不要急着获得晋升－－前方的职业道路由你扛重担的时间会很长。快乐地一边拿着工资一边学习吧，这样获得下一份工作就不费吹灰之力了!
    How can you master the skills it takes to get ahead without putting any time in the trenches? That's like saying you could win an Olympic medal in swimming without learning to doggie paddle first. Look at your first post-college positions as temporary stops on your career path instead of permanent ones. Don't be in such a rush to get promoted either--you have a long career life ahead of you to shoulder the heavy burden of being on top. In the meantime, enjoy getting paid to learn everything you can so that snagging your next job isn't quite as challenging!
  • 尽管看起来被浪费的上班时间很多，但Salary.com网站的薪资主管比尔·柯尔曼说，从具体数字上看，情况还是有所改观。自从2005年Salary.com网站首次开展此项一年一度的调查以来，被浪费的上班时间数下降了19%。当时员工一个工作日浪费的时间为2.09小时。
    While the amount of time wasted at work seems high, Bill Coleman, chief compensation officer at Salary.com. said the numbers have improved, with the amount of time wasted dropping 19 percent since Salary.com conducted its first annual survey on slacking at work in 2005. Then workers reported wasting 2.09 hours of their working day.
  • 有时老板让你去他办公室的时候，你正好要做一些你一直等着要做的事情。事实上老板们并不把我们个人的需要看成是工作中一个重要的因素，所以当你的老板叫你去见他的时候，最好别说等一会过去。
    Sometimes you'll get called into the boss' office just as you're about to do something that you've been waiting to do. Bosses don't often view our personal wants as an important factor to the job, so when your boss calls you in to see them, it's not good to say you'll be there in a minute.
  • 当我们很忙的时候，我们不可能记得所有的事情，但是有些事情当我们说忘了的时候，老板们也许就会不高兴。所以，你可以说，“我正在做，但是还没有完成”而不是直接说你忘记了。这就像是说玻璃杯里的水是半满着而不是半空着一样。它们的意思是相同的，只是另一个听起来更好。
    And we do get so busy that we can't remember everything, but some things may not be well received when we say that. So, instead of saying you forgot, try, "I"m on it but I haven't got through to them yet'. It's like saying the glass is half full instead of half empty. They mean the same

    one just sounds better.
  • 大多数老板觉得自己懂得所有的东西，尽管你和办公室的其他同事也许会在一件事情上和你的老板有不同的观点。试着这样去说，“你或许已经知道这个”。这就让你的老板感觉到你尊重他的想法，即使你知道的更多一些。
    Most bosses like to feel that they know everything, although you and the rest of the office may differ in opinion on that issue. Try beginning your sentence with, "You probably already know this ". This shows your boss that you respect their intelligence, even though you know better.

  • 确定公司运作的方向。站在镜子前，连续5遍不间断地说："这就是我们公司的未来"。身为任何企业的领导，最重要的工作就是绘制出未来的蓝图。如果你不能为大家指明方向，你就只能算是个经理而不能成为领导人。你所绘制的蓝图必须是现实可行、实质性的，能让人相信是可以实现的。即便是存在风险，你也必须敢于当机立断。
    Give direction. Stand in front of the mirror and say, "Here is our future" five times without stuttering. A leader's most important job at any organization is to lay out a road map to the future. If you can't provide that direction, you're a manager -- not a leader. Your vision must be real, substantive, and something people can believe in.Have the guts to make decisions while there's still risk in them.
  • 尊重客户。互联网让你的客户享有更多畅所欲言的机会，说出他们真实的想法，喜欢你什么，不喜欢你什么。倾听他们的声音，并亲自融进你从事的市场中去征求客户的反馈。你需要根据情况不断改进公司的服务。否则，你就会发现客户不断减少(最终，关门大吉)。
    Honor your customer. The Internet lets your customers sound off and tell you exactly what they like or don't like about your business. Listen to them. Get out into the markets you serve, and ask your customers for feedback. Make the necessary changes to improve service or else you may find yourself with fewer customers (and eventually, out of business).
  • 如果你能做到所有这些，你就一定会拥有一个引以为豪的企业。
    Do all of that, and you'll have an organization that will make you proud.
  • 政治议题：你已体认过与家人吃饭时所聊的政治议题如何失去控制，你还要让这种戏码在工作岗位上演吗？谨记你的家人有义务无条件爱你，但同事可没有。
    You've seen how out of hand political discussions can get with your family at the dinner table. Do you really want to start that kind of drama at work? Keep in mind that while your family is obligated to love you no matter what, co-workers are not.
  • 所享特权：正如薪资，别让别人知道你对上流人士令人又羡又忌的吸引力。虽然有幸认识有权势的公司老闆和社交花蝴蝶，夸耀他们给的好处只会有损形象。
    Your privileged life: Along the same lines of keeping salary information to yourself, your enviable pull with society's high rollers should also stay private. Although you have the good fortune to know powerful business leaders and social butterflies, bragging about how many doors they've opened for you will tarnish your image.
  • 私人生活：当玛西担任职业介绍所的招募人员时，她碰到一名永生难忘的求职者。这位女士一进门就开始解释因为她没车而她男友和小孩又正在外面等她，所以面试必须速战速决。接著又说，她儿子的父亲其实另有其人。
    The Rubik's Cube that is your personal life: When Marci Diehl worked as a recruiter, she encountered a job seeker who came in to register with the staffing agency -- and she still remembers her over a decade later. The woman came in and explained that her boyfriend was waiting outside with her child because she didn't have a car and that speed was of the essence. Also, her son was not the boyfriend's child.
  • “她还说她男友并不快乐，因为她6岁大的儿子每晚都跟他们一起睡，而且他们只交往几个礼拜而已。”玛西回忆道。想当然尔，介绍所为找到一个可以安顿她的职位而大费苦心，因为她是一位不懂如何藏起私人想法的高风险雇员
    "Somehow in this tale about the boyfriend, she told us that the boyfriend was not a happy camper, because her 6 year old slept with them every night -- and they'd only been going together for a few weeks, " Diehl remembers. Naturally, the agency had a difficult time placing her because she was a risky employee who didn't know when to keep her thoughts to herself.

  • 最近，Wisconsin－Madison大学的RichardDavidson发现由心神贯注研究中心首创的一种冥想呼吸法能够对大脑产生影响。在一个小范围进行并即将发表的研究中，Davidson对一家生物技术公司的25名员工的大脑进行了成像，这些员工每周练习冥想6天，共练习了8周。他发现他们大脑额叶前部的左侧激活的情况有所增加，而这一部位与较低的焦虑水平、积极的情绪和大脑恐惧中心扁桃核的抑制相关。
    Richard Davidson at the University of Wisconsin-Madison recently found that a form of meditative breathing pioneered at the Center for Mindfulness can affect the brain. In a small, soon-to-be-published study, Davidson took brain images of 25 members of a biotech firm who practiced meditation six days a week for eight weeks. He found increased activation in the left side of the prefrontal part of the brain, an area associated with lower anxiety, positive emotion and inhibition of the amygdala, the brain's fear center.
  • 科学家发现彻底不考虑这些问题很有帮助。迈阿密大学触觉研究所所长TiffanyField在对由于安德鲁飓风而受到心理创伤的60名在校儿童的研究中发现，连续一个月、每周接受两次30分钟按摩的孩子其忧郁情况有所下降，而那些看放松内容的录像片的孩子则没有什么改观。作为人的压力标记的皮质醇水平在接受按摩的一组中也出现了相当程度的下降。如果你不喜欢按摩，那也可以出去好好走一走、游游泳或骑骑车。锻炼不仅有利于保持身体健康，而且能减少焦虑和忧郁。
    Scientists are finding that it can help to get outside your head completely. In a study of 60 schoolchildren traumatized by Hurricane Andrew, Tiffany Field, director of the University of Miami's Touch Research Institute, found that depression dropped in kids who received 30 minutes of massage twice a week for a month，kids who watched a relaxing video showed no improvement. And cortisol levels, the body's marker for stress, declined significantly in the massage group. If massage isn't your thing, go for a vigorous walk, swim or bike ride. Exercise is not only good at keeping you fit，it reduces anxiety and depression, too.
