英语俗语: To bend the rules(放宽规定/通融)。
破坏规定(Breaking the rules)是一回事,放宽规定(Bending the rules)是另一回事。
"To bend the rules "指的是做一些不允许的事或批准他人做一些通常不允许的事。
有时我们会在不幸或意外的境地下放宽规定。
例句:
"When he allowed Zeke to turn in his research paper a week late, Professor was bending the rules. However, he also knew that his students had been having troubles at home. ”
允许Zeke晚一星期交研究论文,是教授对Zeke的通融。但教授也知道他的学生家里遇到了麻烦。
你有过放宽规定或求别人为你通融一下的时候吗?
