“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?)

(你何不約珍妮出去?)

I’m an American English teacher in Taiwan who works almost exclusively with adults.
I don’t teach tests, textbooks, or children.
My classes focus on speaking, pronunciation, and natural conversation, with real correction — not just chatting.
Classes are 100% in English (this actually helps speaking more than people expect).
I’m opening a few new conversation slots right now.
If you’re an adult who wants to actually speak better, feel free to comment or message me.
