The snafu was the fault of the electricity industry rather than the train companies.
这次混乱是电力行业的错,而不是铁路公司的错。
For example, words like blockbuster, nose-dive, shell-shocked, camouflage, radar, barrage, boondocks, roadblock, snafu, boffin, brainwashing, spearhead, etc, are all military terms which have made their way into standard English during the World Wars.
例如,像 blockbuster、nose-dive、shell-shocked、camouflage、radar、barrage、boondocks、roadblock、snafu、boffin、brainwashing、spearhead 等词都是军事术语, 这些词在世界范围内进入了标准英语战争。
In fact, after decades of snafus, work on renovating the Pergamon Museum, the jewel in the Museum Island crown, with its first-class collection of ancient Near Eastern, Hellenistic and Islamic art, only started last year.
事实上,经过几十年的混乱,佩加蒙博物馆 (Pergamon Museum) 的翻修工作于去年才开始,这座博物馆岛皇冠上的明珠拥有一流的古代近东、希腊化和伊斯兰艺术收藏。
