You have to roll with the punches if you want to survive in this business.
如果你想在這一行生存下去的話,就得逆來(lái)順受。
roll with the punches直譯過(guò)來(lái)就是:“順著拳頭打來(lái)的方向轉(zhuǎn)身”,這個(gè)短語(yǔ)的正確意思是:“逆來(lái)順受,大事化小”。因此,當(dāng)美國(guó)人說(shuō)"You have to roll with the punches if you want to survive in this business."時(shí),他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"You should sit down under it if you want to survive in this business."、"You should be obliged to submit if you want to survive in this business."。
