—My uncle has bought himself a new and has given me his old one, but it rattles like mad and won’t do more than forty-five.—It’s better than no car at all, though, isn’t it? —Oh, yes.—Then don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.—叔叔買了輛新車，把舊的給了我，但是嘎拉嘎拉亂響，時速還不到45公里?！M管如此，總比沒有強吧？ —噢，當然。

In achieving your aim, make sure you don’t do something else that more than cancels out your achievement.在達到你的目的的時候，一定不要出別的事，這樣往往會使你前功盡棄。邊學邊用：

A certain Mr.Williamson, who had lived for years in London, decided to break with the past and seek a new life overseas.The day before he was due to sail he destroyed a pile of old correspondence, only to discover when it was too late that he had burnt his passport as well.We can say of the careless Mr.Williamson that he had emptied the baby out with the bath water.有個叫威廉森的先生，在倫敦住了多年，決定和過去一刀兩斷，準備到國外尋求新的生活。在他預定起航的那一天，毀掉了一堆舊的來往信件，等到他發現自己的護照也一起燒掉的時候，已經太遲了。我們可以說粗心的威廉森先生把孩子和洗澡水一起倒掉了。

Never buy a pig in a poke.不要隔著口袋買貓；不要未見實物就瞎買東西。

Always examine your purchase before you pay for it.In old days a crafty trader would tie a cat in a sack and sell it to some trusting simpleton as a piglet, much more valuable than a mere cat.If we would be buyer was wise enough to insist on seeing the piglet before parting with his money, the trader’s dishonesty would be revealed.Hence the proverbial expression “to let the cat out of the bag” means, in a figurative sense, to give away a secret.付款之前，要仔細查看你要買的東西。古時候，狡詐的賣主會把一只貓捆在布袋里當小豬賣給一個過分相信別人的傻買主，當然豬比一只貓值錢得多。如果買主很聰明，堅持要先看以看小豬再付款，那么賣主的欺騙行為就會被揭穿。所以有一句諺語說“把貓從袋子里拿出來”，其寓意為“揭開秘密”。邊學邊用：

Of course I want to see it first.I’m not about to buy a pig in a poke.當然啦，我想先看一看貨。我可不打算隔山買老牛。

A miss is as good as a mile.錯誤大小，其錯一也；差之毫厘，謬以千里。

Whether you have missed your objective by a narrow margin or a wide one, you have still failed.不管你是由于差之毫厘，還是由于失之千里，總之，你沒有射中目標，就算是失敗。邊學邊用：

Their last batter missed hitting a homerun by only one foot, but fortunately for us a miss is as good as a mile.我們最后一個擊球員所打的球離本壘只差一英尺，但是畢竟沒有打中，對我們來說是很幸運的。

Little pitchers have big ears.小孩子耳朵靈。

這是把“小孩子”比作pitcher（水罐）的一個諺語式表達法。Pitcher的“把兒”一般叫做handle，但自古以來又稱為ear。本條的來源是：英國的小水罐往往裝有一個比例不協調的大把兒。這一表達法只能用于“在小孩子面前說話必須謹慎”的場合。邊學邊用：

I was surprised that our little boy was worried because I might lose my job.I guess little pitchers have big ears.我家的小男孩竟為我可能失業而擔心，真叫我大吃一驚。小孩子耳朵真靈啊。

Let George do it.把自己的任務推給別人。

本條的來源是：法國國王路易十二世（1462-1515）每當有自己不愿過問的事情時，就指著當時自己的首相昂布瓦斯的喬治說：“讓喬治去辦吧！”這成了他的口頭禪，但是，在現代美國人的意識中，這個George已不再是指一個特定的任務，等于中國人說“張

三、李四”一樣。請注意：這一表達法不是指把食物分配給別人去干活著請求別人去干，二十讓別人去干自己職責范圍以內的事情。邊學邊用：

Our streets are so dirty because no one wants to take responsibility for keeping them clean.Everyone’s attitude seems to be “Let George do it.”

我們附近的街道太臟了，因為沒有人愿意負責保持它們的清潔。每個人都似乎抱著“讓別人去干吧”的態度。

鴕鳥，ostrich，據說風沙來襲的時候喜歡把頭插進沙子里，以為什么都看不到就可以避開危險，這種行為在我們自己身上也經常看到哦，所以這種自欺欺人的人，被稱為ostrich： Stop being an ostrich!You gotta to face it!別再自欺欺人啦，你要面對事實！有個成語，掩耳盜鈴，說的也是同樣的意思，所以掩耳盜鈴這種行為就被稱為ostrich belief，或者ostrich policy。不過話說回來，我們當真冤枉了鴕鳥同學，其實它根本不會把頭埋在沙子里，雖說事實如此，但是英語中的這個說法卻固定了下來。你是一個ostrich式的人嗎？這樣不好哦，記得一定要鼓起勇氣，面對現實才能解決問題。

Be honest rather clever.誠實比聰明更要緊

Better an empty purse than an empty head.寧可錢袋癟，不要腦袋空。By falling we learn to go safely.吃一塹，長一智。

If a thing is worth doing it is worth doing well.如果事情值得做，就值得做好。

The tongue is boneless but it breaks bones.（舌無骨卻能折斷骨。（其實這句話還有個更好的翻譯同志們猜猜看是什么，(*^__^*)）。

The last straw breaks the camel’s back.最后一根草，壓斷駱駝腰；積羽沉舟。

If you increase a camel’s burden straw by straw, eventually you will load him with one straw too many and his back will be broken.The phrase “the last straw ”refers to something that, although small in itself, comes after many other trouble some things and produces at last the feeling of being intolerable.讓駱駝負重，在它背上一根一根地添稻草，最后一根會因駱駝負重過度而壓斷它的脊背?！白詈笠桓静荨敝甘码m小，但加在許多麻煩事情上，終會使人不堪忍受。邊學邊用：

The workers had endured long hours, low pay, high prices and state-controlled unions for many years, but when the government announced another rise in the price of meat, that was the straw that broke the camel’s back.Workers went out on strike all across the nation.多年來，工人們一直忍受著長時間勞動、低工資、高物價和由國家控制工會，但是，當政府宣布再一次提高肉價的時候，成了最后致命的一擊。于是工人們在全國掀起了大罷工。

Kill not the goose that lays the golden eggs.不要殺雞取卵；勿竭澤而漁。

A Greek fable tells of a man who possessed a goose that laid golden eggs.Impatient and avaricious by nature, he was not satisfied with one golden egg every day or so, but wanted all the eggs at once.So he killed the goose, opened her up an-well, you can guess the rest of the story.故事源自希臘寓言，說的是一個人有一只下金蛋的鵝。由于天性急躁、貪婪，不滿足于一天收一個蛋而想一下子得到所有的蛋。因此，他殺死了鵝，開了膛——故事的結局，你自然會猜得到。邊學邊用：

Any company that cuts back on research and development is killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.凡是削減研制費用的公司，等于在殺雞取卵。

Keep one’s nose clean.規規矩矩。

本條最初的構思是：“如果把鼻子往骯臟的地方伸，鼻子就會受污染。如果不伸進去，就可以保持清潔”。邊學邊用：

Since I lectured him about cheating on tests, he seems to be keeping his nose clean.自從我嚴厲批評他考試時作弊后，他似乎就謹言慎行了。Eat at pleasure ,drink with measure.隨意吃飯，適度飲酒。

Far from eye ,far from heart.離遠而情疏。

1.A miss is as good as a mile.錯誤大小，其錯一也；差之毫厘，謬以千里。

Whether you have missed your objective by a narrow margin or a wide one, you have still failed.不管你是由于差之毫厘，還是由于失之千里，總之，你沒有射中目標，就算是失敗。邊學邊用：

Their last batter missed hitting a homerun by only one foot, but fortunately for us a miss is as good as a mile.我們最后一個擊球員所打的球離本壘只差一英尺，但是畢竟沒有打中，對我們來說是很幸運的。

三、李四”一樣。請注意：這一表達法不是指把食物分配給別人去干活著請求別人去干，二十讓別人去干自己職責范圍以內的事情。邊學邊用：

Our streets are so dirty because no one wants to take responsibility for keeping them clean.Everyone’s attitude seems to be “Let George do it.”

我們附近的街道太臟了，因為沒有人愿意負責保持它們的清潔。每個人都似乎抱著“讓別人去干吧”的態度。East or west ,home is best.在家千日好，出門時時難。

hit it off 的意思是“彼此適合，很要好，合得來”。He hit it off with them from the start I’ll teach someone to do something.他膽敢這樣做，我要好好教訓教訓他。

直譯為“我要教某人去做某事”。實際上也可以按照字面意義使用，例如：I’ll teach you to swim.我來教你游泳。但是，大多是反語作諷刺用法。邊學邊用：

Where is Jimmy? I’ll teach him to disobey me.吉米在哪？他膽敢不聽我的話，我要好好教訓教訓他。
