“放我一马”的英语日常口语对话

　　Jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国友人要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来求教她。今天吴琼的英语日常口语对话要问的是：放我一马。

　　Jessica: Wuqiong, let's hit the gym tonight!

　　WQ: 哎哟，我上次做瑜珈的时候差点把脖子拉伤！你就放我一马吧！对了，这在美语里该怎么说呢？

　　Jessica: You want me to let you off the hook again? Uh-uh, 我每次叫你，你都推三挡四的，这次绝对不行！

　　WQ: 哦，放我一马就是let me off the hook. Jessica, could you please let me off the hook? just this once? I'm begging you!（前方高能，咱们的英语日常口语对话的目标出现呀，快快记忆）

　　Jessica: That's really cute, but NO, you HAVE to come with me. You're not getting off the hook this time.

　　WQ: 瑜珈真不是我强项，要不，咱们还是去打网球吧？上次打网球，我轻而易举就克服你了！I beat you...

　　Jessica: Yeah, you beat me hands down! I do recall!

　　WQ: 刚想问你轻而易举怎么说，原来是hands down! Yes, I beat you hands down last time! 我把你战胜，让你输得不屑一顾！

　　Jessica: (hahaha...) Fine, we'll find a sport that we both like.

　　WQ: 好啊，快走吧，再不走数学课就要迟到了！

　　Jessica: 数学课啊……All of a sudden I'm not feeling well.

　　WQ: 啊? 怎么突然不舒服? 你是不是又想翘课 escape...escape...
