wrap one's head around 是什麼意思?

意思是:設法了解(to try to understand)

例句:

真理論壇 - http://forum.hkot.net • 查看主題 - 美國快破產了!: "Prof Kotlikoff said: 'This figure is more than five times US GDP and almost twice the size of national wealth. One way to wrap one's head around $65.9trillion is to ask what fiscal adjustments are needed to eliminate this red hole. The answers are terrifying. One solution is an immediate and permanent doubling of personal and corporate income taxes. Another is an immediate and permanent two-thirds cut in Social Security and Medicare benefits. A third alternative, were it feasible, would be to immediately and permanently cut all federal discretionary spending by 143pc.'"
