Ví dụ
“They didn’t just fall off the turnip truck,” Roberts said. They were making adjustments (điều chỉnh) in real-time, offering confidence to a purchaser (người mua) that they’re buying a quality company with quality leadership.

We may be slow, we often say, but then again, too, we didn’t just fall off the turnip truck. So in respect of Judge Emmet Sullivan’s outrage (xúc phạm) over General Michael Flynn’s desire to withdraw his guilty plea (lời khẩn cầu), let us just say our eyes are dry. 

I didn't just fall off the turnip truck, you know. I've been around for a long time. I've seen a lot of things. When I feel like I'm being used (lợi dụng), I feel like someone is, put John Flynn aside, someone is using the District Attorney of Erie County and that bothers (làm phiền) me a lot.
