BEC中级商务英语考试话题总结:坦白交待
BEC商务英语核心句型:
You’d better come clean.
你最好坦白交待。
come clean 直译过来就是:“变干净”,所以这个短语的正确意思是:“全盘招供,坦白交待,和盘托出”。因此,当美国人说"You’d better come clean."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"You’d better tell the truth."、"You’d better not tell lies."、"You’d better be frank."。
情景对白:
Colleague: The personnel manager doubts about my forged degree. What should I do?
同事:人事经理怀疑我的假学历,怎么办?
Benjamin: You’d better come clean. Maybe he will keep you in view of your good performance.
本杰明:你最好坦白交待,或许他考虑到你的表现很好而留下你。
