Steven，你可以简单地告诉我台湾零售市场的现况吗？
S: Well, as per capita income goes up and up, the growth sector seems to be in the to-end.

情境短语
1. get acquainted (with...)（和`……）认识，熟悉……
这个常用的短语暗示双方从不认识到熟识，“get”可换“become”。若是短语之后，要加上被认识的对象，以介系词“with”连接。
例：Our boss got acquainted with a couple of real estate agents in the golf Club.
（我们老板在高尔夫俱乐部里结识了几位做房地产的商人。）
2. on top of things 完全掌握
字面的意思是将问题克服，高高踩在上面，引申为“控制全局”。
例：The new manager was always worried he wasn’t on top of things.
（新经理一直担心自己无法掌握全局。）
3. (a) force to be reckoned with 值得注意的人物
“(a) force”，“力量”，可以指一个团体、事物或个人；“reckon”在此的意思为“认定”。“a force to be reckoned with”是形容“有成功的条件而值得注意的人物、团体”。
例：The new company will be a force to be reckoned with in the future.
（这家新公司未来值得大家注意。）
4. Don't I know it. 我完全同意!
当此句型以句点(.)而非问号结尾时，表示完全同意对的方意见，为口语用法，强调的是肯定的含意。意思为”我怎会不知道！？；我当然明白这一点！”。
例：You say the discount rate is too low? Don't I know it!
（你说这折扣打得太少？我完全同意！）
5. in a nutshell 简言之
“nutshell”原为“坚果壳”，又指“极小的容器”，故“in a nutshell” 这个副词短语的意思是“简言之”。
例：Bob told us in a nutshell what happened in the managers' meeting.
（Bob简略地告诉我们经理们开会的情形。）
6. growth sector 成长领域
这个经济学上的名词是指经济成长特别快速的领域，“sector”是“区域；部门”的意思。
例：The leisure and entertainment industry is a growth sector in Taiwan.
（休闲娱乐业是台湾目前的成长领域。）
