package 在中文裡可指「套裝行程/方案」或是「整套的商品組合」,所以要是以 a total package(一個
完整的套組)來形容某個人會是什麼意思呢?就像是說某個人擁有了所有完美的人格特質,或是內外在優勢
條件都集結他/她身上,那他們不就成了幾乎人人稱羨的「天菜」、「人生勝利組」了嗎?也可以將 total 替

A: Hey, who was that lady you were eating lunch with?
B: Do you mean Heather? That’ s my girlfriend.
A: No way! She’ s gorgeous, and she’ s dressed like she’
s rich, too.
B: Hahaha, both of those things are true.
She also has a degree in physics, teaches yoga, is a classical
pianist, and has a great sense of humor.
A: Gosh! The total package, huh?
How did a dweeb like you end up with a girl like her?
B: What can I say? I’ m just a really nice guy.
