练习 1
"I'd settle for something a little closer to home". = "I'd something a little closer to home".
"I'd settle for something a little closer to home". = "I'd accept something a little closer to home".
accept: "To settle for something" is an expression which indicates that someone will accept or consider something which is not necessarily their first choice. For example: I would prefer to eat Indian food tonight, but I'd settle for pizza'. The expression is synonymous with "I'd accept" or "I'd be willing". Here Philip uses the expression to express that although he would prefer to go to Los Angeles or Las Vegas, he accept going somewhere closer to home.
refuse: Philip's expression does not indicate that he would refuse to go somewhere closer to home, but rather that he would accept it, even though it is not his first choice.
arrange: Philip's expression does not indicate that he will arrange the weekend retreat himself, but rather that he would accept going someplace close to home (instead of Los Angeles or Las Vegas), even though it is not his first choice.
research: Philip's expression does not indicate that he will research a weekend retreat, but rather that he would accept going someplace close to home (instead of Los Angeles or Las Vegas), even though it is not his first choice.
