〔例句〕We’ve intended to[1] interview this legendary[2] businessman for a long time. But it’s really difficult to make a practical appointment with[3] him. Given[4] his busy workload, frequent trips, and energetic lifestyle, his executive secretary is often required to reschedule his meeting session. To call off, hold off, move up, squeeze in and even skip the meetings aren’t all rarely[5] seen. Hence, our intention is still pending.
