2023-10-24 13:29:22  每日學(xué)英語
have your cake and eat it一塊蛋糕你不會吃兩次的,如果吃了兩次,不就表示可以同時擁有嗎。所以,這個習(xí)語的意思是“二者兼得、魚與熊掌兼得”。

【例句】
You can't have your cake and eat it - if you want more local services, you can't expect to pay less tax.
你不能二者兼得——想獲得更多的地方服務(wù)就不能指望少付稅金。

You want to get a pay raise and reduce your work hours? I'm sorry, but you can't have your cake and eat it too!
你想要加薪又想要減少工作時數(shù)?很抱歉,魚與熊掌不可兼得!
