Stumbling /'stʌmbliŋ/ block, 意思是障礙物,絆腳石。
例句:
If there's any possibility of working overtime, we're going to have to get a change in our contract. As it is, we aren't allowed to put in more than 40 hours per week. That rule remains a stumbling block. Let's discuss a strategy for dealing with it at our next union meeting.
要想有加班的可能性,我們就必需修改合同。按照目前的規定,我們每星期的工作量不得超過四十個小時。這項規定是我們的絆腳石。咱們下次工會開會的時候,可以討論採取什麼樣的策略,解決這個問題。
(歡迎在文末下方留言stumbling block打卡,加強記憶)
