  • In this lesson you will learn how to use the idiom 'call the shots'.

    今天要教你如何使用 “call the shot” 這個片語

  • Calling a shot means to make a decision.

    這個片語的意思是「負責做決定」

  • That's right. In other words, tocall a shotis to decide what is to be done.

    換句話說“call a shot”就是下決定要做什麼事

  • The person who calls the shots is the one who makes the most powerful decisions.

    負責做決定的人就是最有權威的那個人

  • That's right, Cally. Someone who calls the shots is the one who is in charge and gives directions.

    沒錯,凱莉,負責做決定的人就是掌握大權決定方針的人

  • Yes, it means to be in the most powerful position to decide and influence a situation. Will you give me an example, Aaron?

    對,就是指當家作主而且說了算的人。你能舉個例子嗎,艾倫?

  • Alright, here is one: It's Fred's project, so he will call the shots; he'll decide how to proceed. Should I give another example?

    好的,例如:「那是佛萊德的企劃案,所以由他拍板定案,他會決定案子如何進行。」要我再舉個例嗎?

  • If you want to. I'm not the one calling the shots here!

    如果你願意的話。這不是我能作主的!

  • Alright then, you give an example now.

    好的,這次由你舉個例子

  • Sure, here it goes: 'The teacher calls the shots, not the students'.

    沒問題,例如:「老師說的才算數,不是學生。」

  • Great! Let's listen to some conversations now.

    好極了!讓我們來聽聽實際的對話

  • Will we reach our destination tomorrow?

    明天我們到得了目的地嗎?

  • If we walk all day, we may. But that's up to Freda. She's calling the shots.

    如果我們走整天的話,可以。但這要看佛蘭達了,是她在當家作主。

  • I'd rather walk half a day and stop to rest.

    我寧願走半天然後停下來休息

  • Yeah! But you're not calling the shots.

    但這輪不到你來決定

  • Freda is calling the shots, but she's pretty fair.

    佛蘭達說的才算數,但她還滿公平的。

  • Right! She listens to our opinions, and takes them into consideration.

    沒錯!她會聽取我們的意見,並將之納入考量。

  • Yes, I'm glad we followed the trail, and not the rocky beach.

    對,我很高興我們走的是步道,而不是走布滿岩石的海邊

  • Yeah. It's pretty hot today, I suggest we rest for a while.

    今天很熱,我建議休息一下

  • It's up to Freda, though. She calls the shots.

    那要看佛蘭達囉,她說了才算

  • Who is calling the shots on your team?

    你們球隊是誰發號施令?

  • You're next in seniority. I think you'll have to call the shots until he gets here. You must decide the starting line-up.

    你是第二指揮順位。我想在他到達以前必須由你來負責。你必須決定先發陣容

  • Okay, I'll make the decision.

    好,我來決定

  • I'm not the one calling the shots here!

    這不是我能作主的!

  • The teacher calls the shots, not the students.

    老師說的才算數,不是學生

    但這要看佛蘭達了,是她在當家作主
