silver lining
(壞消息中的）好消息
講解：
有一句英文諺語說：Every dark cloud has a silver lining.。字面意義是「每朵烏云都鑲有銀邊。」，意思是「天無絶人之路。」、「壞消息中也會有好消息。」，所以silver lining就有「壞消息中的好消息」之意。
例句：
Sorry sales and breathtaking losses have left domestic carmakers worse off than they Ve been in decades.The silver lining? Well, its a fine time to buy.(出自：TIME, May 13，1991，p. 40 )
國內汽車制造業銷售慘淡，又蒙巨額損失，正面臨數十年來最低潮。好消息呢？這正是買車的大好時機。
