Sergeant Arrested for Assaulting Colleague
.
Summary:
The sergeant had it coming when he was cuffed by his fellow officers – failing to display professionalism by getting into an argument with a subordinate during a late-supper gathering aside, he should know better that hitting the female officer who attempted to break up the fight with a bottle was not exactly the way to get promoted or be a role model for both his men and the general public.
.
Language Enhancement:
Sb. had it coming (idm.)(抵死)
想說別人「活該」，相信同學都知道英文是 it serves sb. right 或 sb. deserve(s) it，但也不妨學會這個同義表達，注意它除了語氣是非正式，也是維持在過去式。
(Should) know better (ph.)(應比任何人都清楚不應該做某事)
何謂「知道得更好」？其實它的真正意思是某人應該比任何人都更加清楚，不應該去做某事，也因此這句話較常用於有一定年齡或年資的人士。
e.g. You had it coming; I did warn you not to swim before doing warm-ups.
e.g. As a teacher, you should know better not to get into a relationship with a student. —————————————————
