下面要講的習慣用語由floor或者ceiling組成。floor是「地板」,而ceiling解釋為「天花板」。一棟房子的底層常常叫作 the
ground floor。在生意場上你很可能會聽到這樣的說法:「get in on the ground floor」。get in on the ground
floor並不簡單的解釋為「從底層進來」。讓我們看一個例子來琢磨它的意思。
He got in on the ground floor when he bought a lot of stock in a new
computer company. People thought he was crazy but the company was a big success
and now the stock is worth many times more.
這段話說的是:他不失時機的及早買下一家新電腦公司的大量股票,當時人們認為他簡直瘋了,但是這家公司隨即取得很大的成功。如今他買進的股票價值是原來的好多倍。
聽了這段話我們能體會到get in on the ground floor在這句話中的含義是早期入股,取得優先地位!
