   核心句型:

  He hitches2 his wagon3 to a star.
  他胸怀大志。
  hitch1 one's wagon to a star 直译过来就是:“将自己的马车拴在星星上”,星星在天上,要把马车拴到星星上,可想这是一件多么艰难而不可思议的事。所以这个短语的正确意思是:“胸怀大志”。因此,当美国人说"He hitches his wagon to a star."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"He is a man full of ambition."、"He aims high."、"His aspiration4 is far-reaching."。
  情景对白:
  Benjamin: I am shocked by the news of his sudden resignation.
