'Look good on paper' = trông ổn trên giấy tờ -> trông có vẻ ổn thỏa trên lý thuyết nhưng thực tế thì không chắc, không đảm bảo
Ví dụ
“Why would they pick someone with no driver’s licence (bằng lái xe), terrible driving history, and 14 [convictions] to employ over somebody who doesn’t have all that stuff? I’m very employable,” he continued. “I’ve got a lot of skills. I just don’t look good on paper.”
To quote (trích lời) Clark Griswold’s boss from the movie “Christmas Vacation” when re-considering his decision to end Christmas bonuses, “Sometimes things look good on paper but lose their luster (vẻ rực rỡ, lộng lẫy) when you see how it affects real folks.” I couldn’t say it better.
The Cleveland Browns look good on paper but have a rookie (người mới) head coach (huấn luyện viên) and will be facing a lot of pressure and even more change. The Ravens suffered several major losses in the offseason and will need a big jump from quarterback Lamar Jackson, who was annihilated (tiêu diệt) by the Bolts' defense in January.
What may look good on paper does not always translate well when there are actual students in front of you. Please focus on the students as individuals, with individual needs, and recognize us as professionals who know what we are doing. Without trust, the relationship will deteriorate (phá hỏng). If you want relationship building to occur, and successful, collaborative communities of students and staff, then stop chipping away at what makes them unique. Please. Our students and staff deserve (xứng đáng) better.
