核心句型:
You can't buck the system.
你无法抗拒整个制度。
buck the system直译过来就是:“用羊角顶撞制度”,这个短语的正确意思是:“反对、抗拒某种制度。”因此,当美国人说"You can't buck the system."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"You have to obey the rule."、"You can't fight against the usual practice."。
情景对白:
Benjamin: Steven was promoted only because he came to this company earlier than me.
本杰明:史蒂文升职了,就因为他比我早进这家公司!
Terry: You can do nothing but accept it. You can't buck the system.
泰瑞:这也是没办法的事,你只能接受了,你无法抗拒这个制度。
