catch-22
左右為難
l'm about to graduate this May and this whole job hunting thing has been a nightnare.
我5月就要畢業(yè)了,到目前為止,工作找得非常不順利。
Care to elaborate on that?
介意說其體點(diǎn)?
You know. all the jobs available out there required“related working experience."
你知道的啊,所有可以都規(guī)定“要有相關(guān)工作經(jīng)歷”。
How the hell can I have related working experience if I have never had a job before?
我沒工作,哪來什么歷啊?
Oh,yeah,that's a catch-22 most students face.
是啊,太多面臨這個(gè)難題。
If your mon and I both fall into a river,and you can only save one of us,who would you save?
如果你媽媽和我都掉進(jìn)了河里,你只能救我們其中一個(gè),你救誰?
Oh,come on.That is an imposssible question,damned if I do,damned if I don't.You know that.
拜托,這根本沒法回答嘛。橫豎都是死路一條。你知道的。
No, silly.
不,笨蛋。
You should have answered ,"Well ,consider this,if your dad and I both fall into a river and you can only save one of us,who would you save?
你應(yīng)該回答:“考慮一下這個(gè)問題:如果你爸爸和我都掉進(jìn)了河里,你只能救其中一個(gè),你救誰?
whatever you answer is,mine is the same."
你的答案是什么,我的答案就是什么。”
Oh,that's a good one!
哦,這個(gè)太妙了!
