是的。 Go to/through the effort of是一种表达方式,表示某人为某事付出了很多努力。它是在做某事的过程中付出努力时通常使用的表达方式。就像这个视频中泡茶的比喻一样!示例: My friends planned a surprise birthday party for me. I was grateful they went through all the effort to do that for me. (我的朋友们为我准备了一个惊喜派对。 It sucks when you go to all that effort to do something nice for someone, and they don't appreciate it. (我讨厌当你为某人做了一些艰难的事情而那个人不欣赏它时的感觉。)
