226 大人物
核心句型：
You know those bigwigs are really hard to please.你要知道，那些大人物真的很难伺候。
bigwig的意思是：“大人物、权贵之人”。在很早以前，人们有一种习俗，戴着假发来遮掩乱糟糟的头发。在英国，假发根据不同社会阶级和职业而有所区别，那些重要人物的假发往往比一般人的要大得多，所以后人就用“大假发”来形容“大人物”了。因此，当美国人说"You know those bigwigs are really hard to please."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"You know those big shots are hard to please."、"You know it's hard to serve those VIPs."。
