  以下是CN人才网小编整理的办公室英语原地踏步口语,快来看看吧。

  核心句型:

  I quit because I don't want to be stuck in a rut.我不想原地踏步,所以才辞职了。

  be stuck in a rut 直译过来就是:“被卡在一个凹槽里”,rut本身指车轮驶过留下的印痕,引申指从过去延续下来的老一套,老规矩。这个习语的正确意思是:“处于墨守成规、一成不变、不思进取的一种状态”。因此,当美国人说"I quit because I don't want to be stuck in a rut."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"I quit because I don't want to fall into a set pattern."、"I quit because I'd like to try something new and creative."、

  情景对白:

  Shirley: Could you tell me why you want to quit?
