轻松日记职场篇01:不要为丢掉的工作白白难过（在线收听） |
cry over spilled milk 直译为“为打翻的牛奶流泪”，这个短语正确的意思是：覆水难收，为做错事或过去的失败而感到沮丧。因此当美国人说:"Don't cry over spilled milk."时候，他要表达的意思就是："What's done is done and cannot be undone","It is useless to feel chagrined at something that has already happened." 情景对白：
Shirley: Ben, I feel miserable. My boss fired me this morning.
雪莉： 本，我好难过。今天早上老板炒我鱿鱼了。
Benjamin:Don't cry over spilled milk, honey!I'm always on your side.
本杰明：亲爱的，过去的事就让它过去吧，别难过了！我会永远支持你的。
