Aubrey：今天我们主要讨论如何用不同的表达方式来描述“容易”这件事。'cinch'这个词有两种含义，一是表示某事非常容易，例如，'I thought it'd be difficult to increase productivity, but it was a cinch.' 另一种含义是使某事变得确定，例如，'when UCLA offered her a full ride scholarship, it cinched her decision.' 此外，'a snap'也表示容易，可以说'That task was a snap.'。'easy peasy'和'easy breezy'都是口语化的表达，表示某事非常容易。'piece of cake'也表示非常容易。在工作场合，使用不同的表达方式来描述容易的事情可以避免重复，并有助于建立关系。使用这些表达方式可以帮助你更好地与他人沟通，建立更紧密的联系。我认为告诉别人某件事很容易是一种很好的连接方式，可以建立信心和关系，因为他们知道什么是对你来说容易的事情。
