視頻:看《泰迪熊》學口語(1)
John: This is going to take some doing, I think.
可能得找上一段時間。
Lori: Ill just meet you upstairs then.
那我上樓等你。
Take some doing 表示有點難度,得花點功夫。
無法在限期內完成工作可以向上司解釋說 Getting it finished by the deadline will take some doing.在期限前完成有點困難。
在你解釋了很多之后上司終于答應了延期。Its always taking some doing to persuade him! 說服他總是要費很多口舌。
