1--Liquid boils when it is heated to a certain temperature. Boils Down To This
2--So, Jonathan and Anna are probably talking about cooking. Or are they?
1--I got a job offer.
2--That's great. Congratulations!
1--Thanks. But the job is in California. All my friends and family are here in D.C.
2--Look, it boils down to this:
1--Do you really want to move all the way across the country for a job, or not?
2--When you boil something down, you remove liquid from it and reduce it to a concentrated form.
1--That's in cooking.
2--But in conversation, when you boil something down, you get to the most important part of a problem or a situation.

2--所以,乔纳森和安娜很有可能正在讨论烹饪。是这样么?
1--我得到了一个工作机会。
2--很棒啊。恭喜你!
1--谢谢。但是这个工作是在加利福尼亚。我所有的朋友和家人都在华盛顿这里。
2--你看,这个问题归结为:
1--你真的想不远万里去工作吗,还是不想?
2--当你熬东西的时候,你要把里面的液体蒸发掉,然后把它制成浓缩状态。
1--这是在烹饪中的意思。
2--但是在对话中,当你boil something down时,就是说你直指某个问题或者某种状况最重要的部分。
