輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇第107期:好好表現(xiàn)
Clean up your act!
好好表現(xiàn)吧!
clean up your act直譯過來就是：“清理你的行為，整理你的表現(xiàn)”，這個(gè)短語的正確意思是：“洗心革面，好好表現(xiàn)。”因此，當(dāng)美國人說"Clean up your act!"時(shí)，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"Wish you a good start!"、"Display your strength well!"。
情景對白：
Manager: Shirley, I've been paying attention to your performance and I'm impressed. I decide to recommend you to take my place. Clean up your act!

Shirley: Thank you so much, sir. I won't let you down.
雪莉：謝謝您。我不會讓您失望的。
