“It’s a long shot.” 是什麼意思呢? 大家可別又照字面翻譯
它不是真的在說射擊距離很遠
而是個比喻, 指不太可能發生或做到的事
(因為射擊的時候當然距離越遠就越難命中目標)
比如:
(我知道這也許不太可能, 但我是否可以晚一點交報告?)

(你認為老板會發獎金給我們嗎?)
B: It’s a long shot.

A: Why don’t you ask Jenny out?或是: I know it’s probably a long shot, but could I turn in my report a little late?
(你何不約珍妮出去?)
B: Well, I think it’s a long shot, but maybe I’ll give it a try anyway.
(我想不太可能成功, 不過我也許還是會試試看)
