Think outside the box 跳出固定思维模式This means to approach a problem in a creative or unconventional way. “Box” 指的是固有的思维框架，跳出“box”意味着突破常规，采用创新思维。Example: We need to think outside the box to solve this issue.例句: 我们需要跳出固有思维来解决这个问题。3.

"Circle back" is a similar phrase.指跟进某件事或继续讨论，类似的表达还有 "circle back"（稍后回顾）。Example: I’ll follow up with the client after our meeting.例句: 会议结束后，我会跟进客户的情况。6. Keep me in the loop 让我跟上进度This means to stay informed about updates.“Loop” 代表信息圈，表达让某人保持消息畅通、不掉队的意思。Example: Please keep me in the loop on any changes to the schedule.例句: 任何日程变更请让我随时了解情况。7. Touch base 简单联系This means to briefly check in with someone or have a quick conversation.源自棒球中的“触垒”，引申为简单联系、快速沟通。Example: Let’s touch base next week about the marketing plan.例句: 下周我们再就市场计划联系一下。8. Deadline 截止日期This is the final date by which something must be completed.指任务或项目的最后完成日期，也就是大家常说的 "ddl"。Example: The deadline for this report is Friday at 5 PM.例句: 这份报告的截止时间是星期五下午五点。9.

Cut to the chase 开门见山This means to get to the point quickly without unnecessary details.源自电影术语，chase原本是指好莱坞电影里的追逐戏分，一般是作为铺垫，所以不太重要。所以cut to the chase就指跳过这些片段直接看重点情节。工作中，cut to the chase指跳过不重要的部分，直接进入正题。Example: Let’s cut to the chase—what’s the main issue here?例句: 我们开门见山吧，核心问题是什么？12. Call it a day 收工/下班This means to stop working for the day.用于表达一天的工作结束，可以用于下班、结束会议等场景。Example: It’s already 6 PM—let’s call it a day.例句: 已经六点了，今天就到这里吧！这些idioms大家可以在工作中生活中练习起来，让你的表达更地道、更准确!欢迎大家在评论区留言，分享你在本期节目中学到的实用表达。
