Some of the results looked strange. People said they looked like a grapevine. A large number of the telegraph lines were going in all directions, as crooked as the vines that grapes grow on. So was born the expression, by the grapevine.结果看起来有些奇怪.人们说电缆看起来像葡萄藤.大量的电缆线通往四面八方,就像葡萄藤一样歪歪曲曲的.这样就诞生了这个短语,by the grapevine.
