bush knife

基本解釋

The bush remains to this day: once portion of a hedge, it now stands by itself, for no one dare put spade or pruning-knife about it.
灌木一直活到現(xiàn)在，它一度是籬笆的一部分，如今則孤零零地立在那裡，因爲(wèi)沒人膽敢用鍫或是脩枝刀去擺弄它。至於那些奇怪的聲音和說話聲，它們直到幾年前才銷聲匿跡。
In 2003, Bush chose as his Treasury secretary John W. Snow, a railroad president who, as Barron’s columnist Alan Abelson put it, “may not be the sharpest knife in the cabinet.”
2003年,佈什縂統(tǒng)選曾是鉄路公司董事長的John W. Snow作爲(wèi)他的財政部長。正如《巴倫周刊》（注：美國專業(yè)財經(jīng)周刊）的專欄作家Alan Abelson所說，他“可能不是菜櫥裡最鋒利的那把刀”（注：形容某人不是很聰明或者有點笨）。

Then they stuck the knife in: they fully agreed with George Bush and John McCain, Arizona's popular senator, that immigration reform must provide a route out of the shadows for illegal workers.
