2.AndallIhavetodoissitonthebench:

AndallIhavetodoissitwatchingthematchinsteadofplayinginit.Inthisdialoguethissentencemeans,“WhatIhavetodoisdeliberatelyplaypoorlyinthematch.”

3.You’vegotyourselfadeal:

You’vegotwhatyouwantedinthebusinessyoudidwithme.Itmeans“You’vegotwhatyouwantedinthebusinessyoudidwithme.”就这么说定了！

还可以说：

1）Ithinkyouhaveyourselfadeal.

2）Thenit'ssettled.

3）It'sadeal.

deal在此是指“协定”。

在商谈达成协议的那一刻，通常会以“好，就这么说定了！

”类似的句子向对方表示结束协商时的畅快感。

本句话的口气轻松亲切；相形之下，以下的两个短句就较坚定、干脆。

4.figureout：

workout;understandbythinking;discoverordecide解决；理解；弄明白；发现；决定

figuresth.out:

tothinkaboutaproblemorsituationuntilyoufindtheanswerorunderstandwhathashappened想出，理解某事

我们想出一个办法来帮助那些处于困境的孩子吧。

figuresb.out:

-Women,Ijustcan’tfigurethemout.女人，我就是捉摸不透她们。

5.makesense：

1）haveaclearmeaning;beclearthatiseasytounderstand;bejustifiable有（明确而容易理解的）意义

-Readthisandtellmeifitmakessense.

2）tohaveagoodreasonorexplanation言之成理；合情合理的

-Itjustdoesn’tmakesense–whywouldshedoathinglikethat?

这真是无法解释-—她为什么会做出这样的事情。
