妙語佳句，活學(xué)活用
1. Big fish
Big fish 這個俚語本意是“重要的，有影響力的人物”，和我們在《人生遙控器》（精講之二）中講到的big shot 差不多。在這里，big fish 則指的是“the hotel project”。
Big fish 常常出現(xiàn)在片語 big fish in a small pond里，意思是“A person who is important in a limited arena, someone overqualified for a position or in relation to colleagues”，例如：Steve has both a Ph.D. and an M.D., yet he's content with his practice at a rural hospital; he prefers to be a big fish in a little pond.
2. Reel in
Reel in 是指“to pull (eg a fish out of the water) by winding the line to which it is attached on to a reel”，釣魚時咬餌的魚拉上來的動作。在這里，因?yàn)锳mmer先提到了big fish，所以接下來他用了“釣魚”這個比喻。
3. Howdy
是個感嘆詞，意思和hello，how do you do等打招呼的用語差不多。
4. Screw up
俚語，“搞砸，搞糟”的意思，例如：The young architect screwed up the entire construction project.
