核心句型：

How about drawing straws to decide?

我们来抓阄儿决定怎么样？

draw straws 是指：“抽签，抓阄儿”的意思，以前人们不能决定某事时，就会用不同长度的稻草来抽签，一个人将长长短短的稻草攥在手中，露出相同长度的一截，当然现在还有抛硬币或猜拳来决定的方式。因此，当美国人说"How about drawing straws to decide?"时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"Shall we make the decision by drawing lots?"、"Can we decide it by tossing a coin?"。
