李华在Larry办公大楼门口遇到他。Larry看上去十分疲倦。今天我们要学两个常用语：back to square one和hankering.
LH: Larry, 你昨天晚上是不是又熬夜加班了？看上去一脸疲惫。
LL: Did I ever! I was here all night doing work on this new marketing project, but ultimately I did not get anywhere. I may have to change the ad's concept completely, even though that would mean going back to square one.

LH: 这么说，你的新市场营销计划如今又回到了起点，要从头开始，你下一步打算怎样办？
LL: You know, to be honest, I am really not sure. I think maybe I need some sleep to help clear up my head.
LH: 我对你深表同情。不过我比你还惨。上星期论文都快打完了，结果没存，I got sent back to square one. 更糟糕的是，第二天就要交。
LL: That d...
