Work your way down 、work your way up 和 work your way up and down
经常那在一些报纸、杂志以及短文上出现,我想应该不是俚语.具体意思应该结合一定的语境来翻译.
例如：（1）To interpret this ARO tree,we start from the top and work our way down.我们按我们的方式"自顶向下"地来解释这个ARO树.
（2）Start at the top of the list and work your way down.从上面罗列的开始,并照你的方式向下进行.是这样的，它的具体语境是这样：According to scientists,you can relax your body by muscle group.Tense your facial muscles for five seconds,then relax.Then neck and shoulders.Work your way down.Shaking your arms and legs like a wet dog is also recommended.把它翻译成： 按自己的方式去放松可以吗完全可以。你翻译得很好~~~~
