工头foreman[英]['fɔ:mən] [美][ˈfɔrmən, ˈfor-] 中英文故事：外婆（10） 终于，父亲在工作中得到升迁,晋升为推销员,在办公室工作,不再是木材市场的工头了。 工资提高了，再加上退伍抚恤金，我们就能够买得起房子了。我们看过了很多房子，但是由于种种原因都不合适:或离学校太远;或离公共汽车站太远（我们当时没有汽车，只能坐公共汽车）；或不够大;或太旧。父母总想找一个能住下我们所有人的房子——当然包括外婆。 Eventually my father got his promotion at work. He was no longer to be the foreman of the lumber yard but had been chosen to work in the office as a salesman. His in¬creased salary meant that along with his Veteran's loan，we would finally be able to afford to buy a house. There was much hunting and much turning down of inappropriate hou¬ses ；this one was too far to the nearest school ； this one too far from the buses which we counted on to get around the city as we didn’t have a car； this one too expensive； this one not big enough； this one had too many repairs； but always they were looking for a house that would have room for all of us, including Nana. 中英文例句 1. As we waited for the ceremony to begin, a foreman standing beside me barked at workers still visible on the construction site. 在我们等待仪式开始的时候，一个工头站在我身边咆哮，对那些仍然在施工现场的工人喊话。 2. A site foreman had ten very lazy men working for him, so one day he decided to trick them into doing some work for a change. 一个建筑工头手下有十个懒人给他干活，有一天他打算换个法子骗他们干点活。 3. Through the window she could see the foreman waiting. 从窗户望出去，她能看到领班男人还在等着。 4. Provide technical support to maintenance foreman technicians. 为维修领班及维修技师们提供技术支持。 5. My father used to be a foreman in the workshop of a car factory. 我父亲曾在一家汽车工厂当领班。 |
