俗語(yǔ):咬緊牙關(guān),挺住
堅(jiān)持,挺住,咬緊牙關(guān)未必是解決困難的全部理念,但至少會(huì)幫助大家頂住危機(jī)。英語(yǔ)中,咬緊牙關(guān)可用俚語(yǔ)to bite the bullet(子面意:咬住子彈)來(lái)表達(dá)。 詞源記載,to bite the bullet來(lái)自于軍隊(duì)。戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)上,在沒(méi)麻醉藥的狀況下,戰(zhàn)地大夫給傷員動(dòng)手術(shù)時(shí),為減輕患者的疼痛感,常常讓他們咬住某樣?xùn)|西。當(dāng)時(shí)的lead bullet(鉛彈頭)軟硬度正合適這種作用與功效,而且是戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)上手到擒來(lái)之物。于是,傷員常?縯o bite the lead bullet(咬住鉛彈頭)挺住肉體的折磨。 伴隨時(shí)間的推移,to bite the bullet不只指頂住肉體的疼痛,它還可喻指困難處境下精神方面的堅(jiān)持。 The president asked the board to bite the bullet to the crisis.(董事長(zhǎng)號(hào)召董事會(huì)咬緊牙關(guān)頂住這場(chǎng)危機(jī)。)
