迷你对话学地道口语第103期:毋庸置疑

　　迷你对话：
A:You are saying he will be promoted to the general manager?
你是说他要被提升为总经理了？
B:Yeah.
是的。
A:Are you sure?
你肯定吗？
B:Yes. Ibet my bottom dollarthat he will get promoted.
是的。我对他的提升确信无疑。
A:Just because he gets on well with everybody?
就因为他和大家相处得很好吗？
B:Partly, and he's also a hardworking man.
那只是一个原因，他也是一个工作很刻苦的人。
地道表达：
bet one's bottom dollar：确信无疑
解词释义：
bet在这里是“的确，确信，当然”的意思，button是“最低的，最后的”意思。从字面上看“以最后的钱（所有的底子）打包票”，那就是胸有成竹，确信某事了，所以它的意思就是“确信无疑”。
支持范例：
Eg.I can bet my bottom dollar that she won't marry him for anything.
她绝对不会和他结婚的,这个我什么都敢赌。
Eg.I'll bet you my bottom dollar our team will win this year.
我敢打任何赌，我们队今年一定会赢。
Eg.You can bet your bottom dollar he won't have waited for us.
你可以打包票, 他是绝不会等我们的.
