1.I'd like to get the ball rolling by talking about prices.
"get the ball rolling"就是"开始做某事"的意思,"to make something start happening".也可以说是"set/start the ball rolling",意思不变.
I'll start the ball rolling by introducing the first speaker. 我来介绍一下第一位讲演者作为开始.
I'd like to get/start the ball rolling by doing sth是一句谈话,谈判时很好的开场白.
2.Shoot:(让某人把话说出来)说吧,请讲.比较的非正式.
You want to tell me something? OK, shoot! 你有话要告诉我?那好,说吧!
3.That's not exactly what I had in mind.
Have(got) sth in mind:打算做某事,有心做某事
What do you have in mind for dinner tonight? 你晚上想吃什么?
How long have you had this in mind? 你想这件事多久了?
大家要注意了,have sth in mind单纯地指想或者计划某事,不带感情色彩,而 have sth on sb's mind意思就大不一样了.
Don't bother your father tonight─he's got a lot on his mind. 今晚就别打扰你父亲了--他的烦心事儿已经够多了.
