3.详细解说

1.“Congratulations!”用于表示对别人的祝贺，可翻译为“恭喜你！祝贺你！”，其发音为[kənˌgrætju'leiʃənz]。
2.“open-minded”意思是“思想开明的”。
3.“slave driver”本意是指“监督奴隶的监工”，现常用来指“苛刻的老板”。例如: Our manager became a slave driver during the
rush season.（在旺季的时候，我们的老板就会变成一位监工。）My boss is a real slave driver.（我的老板是个不折不扣的奴隶监工。）
4.“come over”的意思是“过来”。

4.文化洗礼

“after one's own heart”是何意

“after one's own heart”这一短语来源于《圣经撤母耳记上》：
"But now thy kingdom shall not continue. The Lord hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be captain over his people because thou hast not kept that which the Lord commanded thee.”（现在你的王位并不长久。耶和华已经寻着一个合他心意的人，让他做百姓的君，因为你没有遵守耶和华所吩咐你的）。
不难看出，它是一个形容词短语，多置于名词之后作后置修饰语。在汉语中大致可以翻译为“符合自己心意的，满意的，情投意合的，正中下怀的”等。例如：
We both like football; he is a man after my own heart.
我们两人都喜欢足球；他是我情投意合的好朋友。
和汉语一样，英语中也存在着很多包括“heart”的短语，并且在日常生活中的使用频率也很高，如：
lose heart（丧失信心）
lose one's heart to somebody/something（喜欢上某人或某物）
leam by heart（用心记住）
heart of gold（美好的心灵）
break one's heart（伤某人的心）
do one's heart good（使某人高兴）
have one's heart in the right place（心地善良）
have one's heart in one's mouth（吓一大跳，忐忑不安，紧张万分）
in one's heart of hearts（在内心深处）
set one's heart on something（下决心得到某物，热衷于…）
heart（认真关注…，对…想不开）
with all one's heart（真心诚意地）
