Burn the Midnight Oil 含义：熬夜，连夜工作 澳洲曾经有个摇滚乐队就叫“Midnight Oil”，其主唱歌手Peter Garrett就是我们现在的联邦环境，文化遗产与艺术部长。大家都知道他以前是彻夜摇滚，不知道现在还有没有精神为保护环境而彻夜工作？ 例句： A: I can't do this anymore. I've been burning the midnight oil for several days in a row now. I'm flat out. B: Man, tell me about it. And to top it up, our CEO just said that our next year's bonus is that we will still have a job. A: Sigh. |
