學個片語:"Things are looking up"


It's an expression. You use the phrase 'things are looking up' when you want to suggest that conditions are getting better or more positive.


Here are some examples:

=====

My wife and I both found great new jobs last month, so things are looking up.


Things are finally looking up now that he's recovered from his illness.

=====


"Things are looking up"為事態好轉,漸有起色,漸入佳境之意,等同"get better"!而事態變糟不是用down,而是用"It's taken a turn for the worse"。
