定义
My decision still stands: 我还没改变主意、我的决定还是一样
示例
- "However, after careful consideration, my original decision still stands: I want you to provide Icarus with whatever he needs."
练习 1
Bruno writes, "After careful consideration, my original decision still stands". Another way to say this is: , my original decision .
Bruno writes, "After careful consideration, my original decision still stands". Another way to say this is: Upon close reflection 1, my original decision remains the same 2.
1 Upon close reflection: Both of these idiomatic expressions ("after careful consideration", and "upon close reflection") express that someone (Bruno) has spent time thinking about a problem or situation with precision and care.
1 After intense brainstorming: To "brainstorm" is to come up with new ideas. Bruno is not "brainstorming", but thinking carefully about a decision which he has already made.
1 With casual observation: This is not the best choice. Bruno's expression indicates "careful" or prudent consideration. Bruno is not making an observation, but rather a decision. He is taking his decision seriously, and so it cannot be described as "casual".
1 After taking precautions: To "take precautions" means to "avoid risk". Bruno is being careful and considering the problem, however he is not trying to "avoid any risk".
2 remains the same: If a decision "remains the same", it does not change. The idiom "my decision still stands" expresses that a decision has not changed, or that it remains the same.
2 doesn't move: If something "doesn't move", it is "stationary" or "still", without physical motion. A decision might "change", but we never say that it "doesn't move".
2 is on hold: If something is "on hold", a process or project has been stopped or paused. Something "on hold" could be a program, or a person on the telephone waiting to speak with someone else. A decision can be put "on hold", delayed or postponed, but this is not what Bruno's idiom (my decision still stands) expresses.
2 is up in the air: This is not the best choice here. If a decision is "up in the air", it is "undecided" or "not final". Bruno is actually expressing that his original decision is still valid, and that he has not changed his opinions, despite Bob's research and suggestions to use a different software program.
