各司其职 [
gè sī qí zhí]
Each performs its own functions.
- 木匠,铅管工,速记员不可或缺,同样,社会也需要医生,律师,工程师和教师各司其职,才得以运转。
Society needs doctors, lawyers, engineers, teachers to perform specific tasks necessary to its operation, just as it needs carpenters and plumbers and stenographers. - 人类可真是适应性动物,还不到吃午饭的功夫,大家就已经在阿瑟的房子附近安顿下来,并且各司其职了。
Human beings are great adaptors, and by lunchtime life in the environs of Arthur's house had settled into a steady routine. - 各国之间使用统一货币,政府之间仍然各司其职。欧洲15国使用同一的货币欧元,在金融危机时代似乎不是上策。
SHARING a currency but not a government—the hybrid arrangement for the 15 countries that use the euro—may look less than ideal in times of turmoil.
