二、邊聽邊說 Listen and Speak
He thought up a great idea for a new product.
他想出一個很棒的新產品。
Maybe with this brainstorm, he’ll take the plunge and start his own business.
或許因為這個新點子，他將下決心開始自己的事業。
I think he wants to try his idea out for a while. He doesn't want to jump the gun.
我想他會再試一段時間，不會太過沖動。
He should kick it around a while but it won’t work unless he can take over.
他是應該再多加考慮。如果不能掌控好是不會成功的。
Well, so far none of his plans have managed to get off the ground.
是啊，目前為止他的諸多計劃還沒有一個能夠實行。
