Cách sử dụng
The expression "hit/miss the mark" is used to describe someone or something that has either succeeded or failed to meet a particular standard. It comes from archery, where hitting the "mark" (a small target) is the goal. So, if someone "hits the mark," they have achieved their goal or done something successfully, while if they "miss the mark," they have failed. For example, if you take a test and get a perfect score, you could say that you "hit the mark." Conversely, if you don't do well on the test, you could say that you "missed the mark."
