一次,我去參加同事 Ann 的生日宴會,由于那家飯店我從前沒有去過,所以我一邊開車一邊找路。我對同車的同事 Jane 說:“I don't see the restaurant!”Jane回答我說:“OK, Let me keep my eyes open!”我大吃一驚,連忙問道:“What?You mean you have your eyes closed all this time?”Jane 知道我沒有理解這句話的意思,忙向我解釋說:“I mean I will start to pay attention!”我這才恍然大悟,原來“Keep my eyes open”是“我會留意”,而不是“雙目圓睜”的意思。
