  下面是CN人才网小编提供的办公室英语处境相同口语,快来看看吧。

  核心句型:

  We are in the same boat.

  我们处境相同。

  be in the same boat 字面上意思是:“大家都在同一条船上”,既然在一条船上,如果船出事大家就都会掉进水里,所以这个短语的引申意思是:“大家的处境相同”。因此,当美国人说"We are in the same boat."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"We are in the same situation."、"We are faced with the same problem."。

  情景对白:

  Benjamin: By the impact of global recession, our company is ready to take measures to ease the pressure by laying off employees. I feel so worried about my situation.

  Terry: We are in the same boat! The list will be announced tomorrow. I am worried about it, too.

  泰瑞:我们处境相同啊!裁员名单明天就公布,我也正担心呢。
