在春节放假前，单位同事间就流传节后会有一位新总监空降下来的传闻。公司里几个好管闲事儿的大妈们又开始漫无边际地猜测到底会是谁......看到了这场景，现任的外教总监 Lawrence 就会神秘地说上一句:“Don't worry about it, the riddle is brought to light soon.”
在这里，Lawrence 用上了一句地道的短语~"be brought to light", 大家可别错误地理解成“给谁带来光明”什么的哈，其实他是在说“别担心，谜底很快就揭晓了。”所以有时候学英文不能直译，而是通过意译去猜，一下儿就更好理解啦！带来光明不就包含了“真相大白、水落石出、揭露曝光”的意思嘛！同时，这个短语还可以表示成"come to light"。
be brought to light / come to light
