Push one's luck 得寸進尺
人有時候不懂得察言觀色,吃了一點甜頭還不知節(jié)制,若是你遇到這種"得寸進尺"push one's luck的人,就可以送他這這句話Don't push your luck."你別得寸進尺了".給他來點小小的警告,以免對方樂極生悲.
A:I will be in charge of this company in 3 years. 我會在3年內(nèi)掌管這家公司.
B:Don't push your luck. If the boss hears you say that, you'll be without a job.你別得寸進尺.要是老板聽到你說的話,你連工作都會沒有.
