轻松日记商务职场篇 第208期:乐天派

核心句型：
He's a good-time Charlie.
他是个乐天派。
good-time Charlie 直译过来就是：“贪图寻欢作乐的查理”。俚语中经常会用到人名以象征某种意义，而Charlie一般就指那些傻傻的人、笨蛋，所以这个短语的正确意思是：“无忧无虑者，乐天派”。因此，当美国人说"He's a good-time Charlie."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"He is a happy-go-lucky person."、"He is an optimist."。
情景对白：
Jane: I feel sorry for Mike. The boss gave him a good scolding in the morning conference. The boss has been pushing him so hard these days.
简：我真为麦克难过啊。早会上老板狠狠地训斥了他一顿。这阵子老板把他逼得太紧了。
Shirley: He's a good-time Charlie. I'm sure he will get over this.
雪莉：他是个乐天派，我相信他会挺过来的。
搭配句积累：
①Don't be so worried. He'll be all right soon.
不要太担心啦，他很快就会好起来的。
②He'll be back on his feet in no time.
他很快就会振作起来的！
③In spite of the tough situation, he looks happy everyday.
尽管形势困难，但他仍然每天看起来都很快乐。
④Though he lost the chance, he didn't care.
尽管他失去了这次机会，但他一点也不在意。
