Example
Man: Look at Gary. He keeps offering to do extra work – even at weekends中 华 考 试 网
Lady: Well he's hoping to earn a few brownie points with the bosses. There's a new position opening up and I reckon he'll apply for it.
Feifei: 这个说话的人主动多做工作以便获得老板的赏识,这是很快会有晋升提拔的机会。
William: But to earn brownie points is more than just doing someone a favour.
Feifei: 是的,这个短语不单纯是为某人帮忙的意思,关键是要得到某人的认可和表扬,是个非常轻松随便的短语。
William: When was the last time you earned brownie points from someone, Feifei?
Feifei: Oh I don't try to get other people's approval.
William: Hmm, really? So you don't really care what people think about you?
Feifei: No, not at all. But William, you've got so much stuff with you. Are you taking the train to your in-laws' house? Can I give you a lift to the station?
William: Oh thanks! That's really kind of you. I was beginning to think you were a bit selfish but now I can see you're quite generous… Ah, I understand!
Feifei: Yes, I'm trying to earn some brownie points!
William: Well, you succeeded! Goodbye!
Feifei: Bye!
