   Subject:Let’s concentrate on big pictures.

  迷你对话
  A: Let’s concentrate on big pictures.
  我们来讨论下重点问题吧。
  B: Then how about the transfer of staff members.
  那人事调动问题呢?
  A: It will be discussed next time.
  这个问题下次再讨论。
  地道表达
  big picture
  1. 解词释义
  Pictures有两层意思:一是“大局,全局”。如果说He can see the big picture.表示此人并非单单着眼于眼前的蝇头小利,而是可以综观全局,放眼未来,拥有长期规划的能力。二是“事情的主要部分,重点”。在上面的对话中就是第二个意思。
  2. 拓展例句
  e.g. Johnnie can't see the big picture. He's unwilling1 to wait. He wants to get paid now.
  强尼看不到大局。他不愿意等。他现在就要拿薪水。
  e.g. Oh, Elvin doesn't know anything. He can't see the big picture.
  喔,艾文啥都不懂。他看不到大局。
  Ps:the transfer of staff members:人事调动问题
  Ps 2:concentrate on的意思是“集中精力于......”。例如:
  We can skip over the details and concentrate on the general issues.
  你可略过细节部分,而把精力集中在总则上。
  Please concentrate on the business at hand and don't drag in irrelevant2 issues.
  不要牵扯其他问题。
