知识点讲解：
1.According to the company rule, we should punch in before 8 o’clock and punch out after 5 o’clock every work day.
根据公司的规定，我们应该每天早上8点前打卡上班，每天下午5点，打卡下班。
punch 最原本的意思就是“一拳’，例如：He laid his opponent low with a single punch.
他一拳就把对手打倒在地。
在这里punch作动词，表示“打卡”，punch in与punch out分别表示“打卡进公司”，“打卡下班”的意思、
2.B：May I ask whether we need to work overtime?
方便问一下，我们需要加班吗?
may I ask用在本句中，主要是用来缓冲句子的语气的，例如我们可以说：May I ask whether you have been married?方便问一下，你结婚了没?
work overtime 是“加班”的意思，
例如：我愿本周加班工作以示诚意。
As an earnest of my good intentions I will work overtime this week.

核心句型：
I dig it.我了解了。
I dig it字面理解意思是“我挖它”。dig虽然有“挖，挖苦”的意思，但是在这里它的意思却刚好相反，等同于enjoy，所以这个短语的正确意思是：“我懂了，我了解了”。因此，当美国人说“I dig it.”时，他/她要表达的意思就是:“I see.”、“Roger.”、“I get it.”。
情景对白：
Boss: Terry, we must arrange a right time and place for the meeting. I'll leave it to you.

核心句型：
It's better to get the lay of the land before investment.投资前先了解一下情况比较好。
get the lay of the land 直译过来就是：“了解这块地的地形地貌”，这个短语的正确意思是：“了解一下情况”。因此，当美国人说“It's better to get the lay of the land before investment.”时，他/她要表达的意思就是:“It's better to know the crucial information before investment.”、“It's better to get familiar with the development before investment.”。
情景对白：
