学为贵雅思培训-北京雅思培训班哪家好项目部提供:超级好背雅思口语9分词汇:make a killing。
Two young entrepreneurs, who started a new Internet business two years ago, have today sol d the business for ?3 million. Jenny Curtis, co-founder of Slimmm.com, says, 'Everyone thinks we've made a killing, but it was hard work. For the first 18 months we couldn't make ends meet - I couldn't even buy a new pair of socks! When the busines s finally got off the ground , we worked 18 hours a day for six months.'
make a killing
make a big profit quickly(快速赚大钱,通常killing是战场上的事情,但是商场如战场啊,make a killing 也就变成了商场的大成功,快速的赚了大钱)
make ends meet
pay for necessities (买必需品,make ends meet说的是“收入和支出刚好平衡”,这样当然就不能买一些奢侈品或者和兴趣爱好相关的东西啦,只能买必需品,ends就是两端(收入和支出),收入和支出刚好见面)
get off the ground
start to be successful(get off the ground字面意思是离开地面,通常说飞机,汉语中也有类似表达,比如他的事业开始起飞,所以get off the ground表示开始成功的意思)
