| against all odds |
顶住重重困难 |
Despite obstacles that are nearly impossible to overcome. |
EXAMPLE: Against all odds the small group of talented but indigent musicians from the countryside became the most popular band in the capital, and recorded a very successful CD.
这几位来自乡村的才华出众但贫困潦倒的乐手克服了重重困难，终于成了京城最受欢迎的乐队，还录制了一张非常成功的 CD。 |
