| 释义 |
head ， bring to a ～： come to a ～ -477
这两个短语动词并非同义， bring to a head 作“到了穷途末路”或“弄僵”讲，是及物的； come to a head 则是“到了最后尽头”的意思，是不及物的。
例如：
Matters were brought to a bead when the boss tried toforce still more work on him. He resigned. 老板仍叫他做更多的工作，这样，事情就不好办了，他就辞职了。
The matter may come to a head at the meeting, I suppose.
据我看，在会上问题可能会得到解决。
