Americans in
28、 business are like people who are in business anywhere. They have a language of their own. Some of the words and expressions deal with the special areas of their work. Other expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theater and movie industry.One such saying is “get your act
29、together”.When things go wrong in a business, an employer may get angry. He may shout, “Stop making mistakes. Get your act together.”Or, if the employer is calmer, he may say, “Let us get our act together.”Either way, the meaning is the same. Getting your act together is getting organized. In busine
30、ss, it usually means to develop a calm and orderly plan of action.It is difficult to tell exactly where the saying began. But, it is probable that it was in the theater or movie industry. Perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes. The director may have said, “Calm down, now. G
31、et your act together.”Word expert James Rogers says the expression was common by the late 1970s. Mister Rogers says the Manchester Guardian newspaper used it in 1978. The newspaper said a reform policy required that the British government get its act together.Now, this expression is heard often when
32、 officials of a company meet. One company even called its yearly report, “Getting Our Act Together.” The Japanese visitor was confused by another expression used by American business people. It is cut to the chase.She heard that expression when she attended an important meeting of one company. One o
33、fficial was giving a very long report. It was not very interesting. In fact, some people at the meeting were falling asleep.Finally, the president of the company said, “Cut to the chase.”Cut to the chase means to stop spending so much time on details or unimportant material. Hurry and get to the goo
34、d part.Naturally, this saying was started by people who make movies. Hollywood movie producers believe that most Americans want to see action movies. Many of their movies show scenes in which the actors chase each other in cars, or in airplanes or on foot.Cut is the directors word for stop. The dire
35、ctor means to stop filming, leave out some material, and get to the chase scene now.So, if your employer tells you to cut to the chase, be sure to get to the main point of your story quickly.64. After the woman visited the Untied States she might feel that _.A. her English was poor B. Its easy to ma
