轻松日记商务职场篇68:老板大开绿灯(在线收听

   核心句型:

  He likes my idea and gives me the green light to go ahead.
  他支持我的建议,让我按计划去办。
  green light字面意思是:“绿灯”,在全世界各地,绿颜色的交通信号灯都是可以通行的意思。所以,日常生活中,人们也经常用开绿灯这个说法表示某个计划获得批准,可以进行。这个习惯用语的意思因而就不言而喻了,表示:“开绿灯,计划获得批准”。因此,当美国人说"He likes my idea and give me the green light to go ahead."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"He agrees with my idea and allow me to do it."、"He is in favor of my suggestion and let me carry it out."。
