你怎么一副正经八百的样子?
B: I'm thinking! Don't bother me!
我在想事情!别烦我!
【first thing tomorrow 明天赶办】
当他人有事情交代的时候,为了表明自己不会拖延,会尽速办理,你就可以用上这句短语first thing tomorrow,好让对方安心。当然由于事情的轻重缓急有所不同,赶办的时间也可以视情况而代换,好比first thing in the morning“一早赶办”,first thing Monday“周一赶办”等等。
A: When are you going to start working on this project?
你何时会开始进行这个计划?
B: I'll get to it first thing tomorrow.
我赶明天就马上进行。
