　　迷你对话

　　A: I have a bone to pick with you, sir. I cannot goalong with your view.

　　先生，我得和你理论一番，我不同意您的观点。

　　B: OK. Go ahead.

　　好的，说吧。

　　地道表达

　　have a bone to pick

　　1. 解词释义

　　Have a bone to pick从字面意思是“挑骨头”的意思，引申为“有理由来抱怨或争论”。这个习语源于16世纪是从狗啃骨头这一行为引申而来的。狗对于骨头有极大的爱好，总是啃不完，爱不释手，于是，have a bone topick就被用来指代“需要常时间讨论的事情”了。

　　2. 拓展例句

　　e.g. I can't make out why he seems to have a bone to pick with almost everyone.

　　我真搞不懂为什么他好象和几乎每个人都有仇似的。

　　e.g. Here! I have a bone to pick with you about the way you spoke to me yesterday.

　　喂!我对你昨天向我说话的那种方式有意见。

　　e.g. I have a bone to pick with you. You still owe me the fifteen dollars you borrowed.

　　我有账跟你算。你向我借的十五美金还没还呢!

　　Ps：go along with的意思是“赞同”，相当于agree with。例如：

　　Your suggestion is illegal; I can't go along with it.

　　你的建议不合法;我不能赞同。

　　You'll have to go along with it, or the whole deal's off.

　　可你必须照办，否则这桩买卖就吹了。
