情境短語:
1. get acquainted (with...)（和`……）認(rèn)識(shí)，熟悉……
暗示雙方從不認(rèn)識(shí)到熟識(shí)，“get”可換“become”。若是短語之后，要加上被認(rèn)識(shí)的對(duì)象，以介系詞“with”連接。
例：Our boss got acquainted with a couple of real estate agents in the golf Club. 我們老板在高爾夫俱樂部里結(jié)識(shí)了幾位做房地產(chǎn)的商人。
2. on top of things 完全掌握
字面的意思是將問題克服，高高踩在上面，引申為“控制全局”。
例：The new manager was always worried he wasn’t on top of things. 新經(jīng)理一直擔(dān)心自己無法掌握全局。
3. a force to be reckoned with 值得注意的人物
a force， 力量，可以指一個(gè)團(tuán)體、事物或個(gè)人；reckon在此的意思為認(rèn)定。a force to be reckoned with是形容有成功的條件而值得注意的人物、團(tuán)體。
例：The new company will be a force to be reckoned with in the future. 這家新公司未來值得大家注意。
4. Don't I know it. 我完全同意!
當(dāng)此句型以句點(diǎn)(.)而非問號(hào)結(jié)尾時(shí)，表示完全同意對(duì)的方意見，為口語用法，強(qiáng)調(diào)的是肯定的含意。意思為”我怎會(huì)不知道！？；我當(dāng)然明白這一點(diǎn)！”。
例：You say the discount rate is too low? Don't I know it! 你說這折扣打得太少？我完全同意！
5. in a nutshell 簡(jiǎn)言之
“nutshell”原為“堅(jiān)果殼”，又指“極小的容器”，故“in a nutshell” 這個(gè)副詞短語的意思是“簡(jiǎn)言之”。
例：Bob told us in a nutshell what happened in the managers' meeting. Bob簡(jiǎn)略地告訴我們經(jīng)理們開會(huì)的情形。
