英语经典俚语
beat around the bush
拐弯抹角，旁敲侧击
She is always beating around the bush when she is talking to us， which often makes us baffled.
她讲话总是拐弯抹角，常常让我们一头雾水。
历史典故
“beat”的意思指“打，敲击”，“bush”的意思是“灌木丛”，字面意思理解这句俚语即是“绕着灌木丛敲击”。指不直接切入正题，也就是我们现在所说的说话兜圈子，拐弯抹角，旁敲侧击等。
beat it
滚开
Beat it！ Don't stand in my way， or things will get ugly.
滚开，别挡我的路，否则我会给你点颜色看看。
历史典故
“beat it”的字面意思是打它。而这里的它代指的是地面，就是用脚打击地面，就是“跑走，滚开”的意思，那岂不就是让人哪儿凉快哪儿呆着去么有趣的是，迈克尔·杰克逊（Michael Jackson）当年红遍世界的歌曲“Beat it”，中文被翻译成“打击”，而实际应是“远离（暴力）”。
beat the rap
全身而退
The defence lawyers weren't confident but in the end we managed to beat the rap.
虽然辩护律师曾感到没有把握，但我们最后还是设法逃过了刑罚。
历史典故
这句俚语源于美国的诉讼领域，指逃过刑事责任。“beat”是“打败、战胜”的意思，而“rap”通常指惩罚，所以这个俚语表达的字面意思是“战胜惩罚”，也就是逃脱惩罚的意思。
beggars can't be choosers.
乞丐没得挑。
Beggars can't be choosers. Just take this offer and go to work.
乞丐没得挑。接受这个职位上班去吧。
历史典故
这个俚语源自15世纪的英格兰，从字面上就能看出来大概的意思。但最初的意思是形容乞丐的处境很窘迫，别人给什么就只能要什么。但后来这句话发展为表示乞丐不应该挑三拣四，应该逆来顺受或者对免费或廉价的东西不要太挑剔。
better （to be） safe than sorry.
宁愿防患未然，也不要终生遗憾。
Better safe than sorry， so think twice before you do something.
宁愿防患未然，也不要终生遗憾，因此三思而行。
历史典故
这条俚语从字面上理解意思为小心总比后悔强。也就是警惕人们做事要三思而后行，做好万全的准备，否则后悔可就来不及了。这句话最早出现在一个爱尔兰作家的小说中。
