   核心句型:

  Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
  不要把希望寄托在一件事情上。
  put all your eggs in one basket直译过来就是:“把所有的鸡蛋放在一个篮子里”,这个短语的正确意思是:“把希望寄托在一件事情上”。因此,当美国人说"Don't put all your eggs in one basket."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"Don't bet your success on one thing."、"Don't pin your hope on one thing."、"Don't bet your bottom dollar."。
  情景对白:
  Benjamin: I will try hard to get their financial support to ward1 off risk of aborting3 our project.

  Boss: Don't put all your eggs in one basket. We should think of other solutions as well.
  老板:不要把希望寄托在一件事情上,我们还得想想其他办法。

  我把所有资金都投进那个项目,很不明智啊。
  ②You'd better draw up several plans.
  你最好多制定几条计划。
  ③You can't just wait for that company's help.
