<< review queue entry 61558 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> 工作要自己去找,特别是好工作,不要等着天上掉馅饼。 -------------------- Editor: 1) bing1 --> bing3 2) meatpie --> meat pie 3) I didn't find any examples of 天上掉餡餅 in TP, but I found these related snippets: 「這真是天上掉下來的一塊肉！」 "This is like manna from heaven!" 東西是不會平白從天上掉到我們手裡， there is nothing that simply falls from the sky. One must fight for everything. 突然間竄紅，彎彎覺得一切彷彿天上掉下來的禮物， She feels that her sudden fame is like a gift that fell from the sky, Freddy認為，機會不會從天上掉下來， Freddy believes that opportunity won't just fall from the sky 這彷彿是天上掉下來的五一大禮。 the subsidies are like a May Day gift from heaven for Taiwan's working people. 可見免簽絕非天上掉下來的禮物。 幸福很簡單，但不是理所當然，更不能坐等天上掉下來，只有身體力行，努力經營，才能再造屬於自己的幸福家庭。 Happiness isn’t difficult to achieve, but neither is it a given. You can’t sit around waiting for heaven to bestow it on you. If you want a happy home, you have to work at it. 這無疑是天上掉下來的好機會， an opportunity that had fallen from heaven 因而有了一個天上掉下來的題材。 The stay in the US essentially handed her the subject matter on a plate. |
