Hold your horses
Tom could barely contain his excitement as he rushed towards the car dealership, eager to test drive the sleek, brand-new sports car he had been eyeing for weeks. He had been saving up his money for months, and the moment had finally arrived to make his dream a reality. But just as he was about to dash through the entrance, the salesman stepped in front of him, raising a hand to signal him to slow down.
"Hold your horses there, buddy," the salesman said with a chuckle. "Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Why don't you come inside and we can discuss the details first?"
Tom took a deep breath and forced himself to slow down. As much as he wanted to jump right in and take the car for a spin, he knew the salesman had a point. There were still plenty of steps to go through before he could drive off the lot. Reluctantly, he followed the salesman inside, reminding himself to keep his excitement in check and take things one step at a time.
耐心點,別急
湯姆急匆匆地朝汽車經銷商奔去,迫不及待地想試駕那輛他已經盯了好幾個星期的全新時尚跑車。他已經存錢存了好幾個月了,這個時刻終於到來,讓他的夢想成真。但就在他快要衝進去的時候,銷售員擋在他面前,舉手示意他放慢腳步。
"慢著,老兄,"銷售員帶著笑意說,"別這麼急。你先進來,我們先討論一下細節好嗎?"
湯姆深吸了一口氣,強迫自己放慢腳步。盡管他迫不及待想跳進車裡試駕,但他知道銷售員說得有道理。在他能夠開車離開之前,還有很多步驟要走。他不情願地跟著銷售員進去,提醒自己要把興奮情緒控制住,一步一步來。
