如何用地道英语表达“关注某事进展”今天我们要讲的一个美国习惯用语是：to keep track。

to keep track的意思是了解或关注某人的活动或是某件事的进展。

比如说，同学们从学校毕业后都各奔东西，大家往往就失去了联系。

时间越长，年纪越大就更难了解老同学现在究竟在做什么，甚至于在哪里，也就是：it is hard to keep track of one's former schoolmates.下面我们来举一个例子。

一个公司的经理说，他以后要亲自检查公司的账目。

为什么呢？他说：例句-1：i am not happy with the way this company has been managed lately, and so i am going to become more involved on a day-to-day basis. for example, from now on i am going to keep track of every cent we spend.这个经理说：我对公司最近的管理状况不满意。

我以后要更多地参与日常工作，比如从现在开始我要了解我们的每一分钱都花在哪里。

to keep track这个习惯用语中的track是指行踪，轨道。

这个习惯用语起初是指跟踪一个人的脚印，到了19世纪末期才开始用来泛指了解某人的情况或是某件事的进展。

下面我们再来听一个例句。

这是讲一个人发了请帖给他的一个朋友和他的女朋友，但是没有想到这个朋友已经又换了一个女朋友。

这个人对他的朋友说：例句-2：what happened to elizabeth? i thought you were going out with her. that's why i put her name on your invitation. honestly, i can't keep track of all your girlfriends. well, anyway, what's the name of your latest? i'll send her a new invitation.这个人说：elizabeth怎么啦？我以为她是你的女朋友，所以给你发请帖的时候把她的名字也写上了。
