你知道bad kids=？

binggo！

Cat's cradle definition is - a game in which a string looped in a pattern like a cradle on the fingers of one person's hands is transferred to the hands of another so as to form a different figure.

Cat's Cradle字面意思是：猫的摇篮；

其实，它另外一个意思是“翻花绳”游戏。

“编花绳”-是不是细思极恐？

因此，cat's cradle也可译为精心策划的事件！

让我们拆分一下

cat

❖ fat cat

不要想当然把 fat cat理解为“大肥猫”。根据具体语境，可以表示非常富有或有权势的人，通常是政商界人士。

a wealthy and powerful person, typically one involved in business or politics.

例句：These days it seems as though the fat cats do better and better, but the workers do worse and worse.

❖ rain cats and dogs

天上下猫和狗？其实是指倾盆大雨、瓢泼大雨。很常用的一种地道英文表达，《面纱》、《玩具总动员四》中都曾出现过。

例句：Look! It’s raining cats and dogs.

❖ To put the cat among the pigeons

引发骚乱或混乱，通常是故意为之。把猫咪扔进鸽子堆里，后果可想而知。

例句：If we question the suspect now, it will put the cat among the pigeons, and his associates will scatter. Let’s hold off for now.

❖ bell the cat

源自民间故事（老鼠）给猫戴上铃铛（作为预警），通常指接受一项艰难或不可能完成的任务。

例句：Who will bell the cat and take on the job of reducing corruption in this country?

“pig out”千万别翻译成“猪出来了”，要被笑死了！

cradle

❖ rob the cradle

rob是“抢劫、掠夺”的意思，rob the cradle字面意思是抢劫抢摇篮，实际含义则是：老牛吃嫩草。

1. To court, seduce, copulate , or marry someone much younger. 2. To have a relationship or relations with a person of much younger years; an intergenerational relationship .

例句：Are you sure it doesn't bother you how much older I am? I feel like people are judging me for robbing the cradle.

❖ cradle snatcher

snatch的意思是抢夺。相似的， cradle snatcher可以表示和比自己年龄小很多的人谈恋爱的人，也就是忘年恋人。

例句：People were quite cruel about the age difference and him being a cradle-snatcher.

❖ from the cradle to the grave

字面意思是从摇篮到坟墓，很好理解，从生到死，也就是贯穿人的一生。

例句：The bond of brotherhood was one to last from the cradle to the grave.
