牌桌上点破所有人的牌：represent that you have something
深夜牌桌上，教授和法官们围着一个送东西的法学院学生。有人先抛出 a word to the wise（给句忠告），后来有人点破别人在 represent that you have something（装作手里有某张牌）。想劝人一句、又想看穿对方虚张声势，这两句正好派上用场。
发生了什么
深夜的牌桌上，一名法学院学生在教授和法官们身边帮忙送东西。有人抛来 a word to the wise（给句忠告），劝他留在私人律所；有人说明知冒险还是 can't help myself（忍不住）。后来有人拿暑期书记员的职位打赌，说自己知道对方手里的牌，还点破谁在 represent that you have something（装作手里有某张牌）。想学几句劝告、自嘲和点破虚张声势的英文，这些说法都能直接用。

- 看实习机会怎样被当成赌注
