二、套用谚语的技巧

套用谚语就是直接将谚语套用在自己的句子中，使之成为自己句子的一个组成部分。下面略举几例，同学们可以从中学习如何在自己的句子中套用谚语。

1. Beggars cannot be choosers. 叫花子不能挑肥拣瘦。如：

Like it or not, remember, beggars can’t be choosers. 不管你是喜欢还是不喜欢，记住，叫花子不能挑肥拣瘦。

I don’t care much for the Christmas present, for beggars can’t be choosers. 对于什么样的圣诞礼物我不在乎，因为叫花子不能挑肥拣瘦。

I would have preferred a bed, but beggars can’t be choosers so I slept on the sofa. 我本想要张床，但是叫花子不能挑肥拣瘦，所以我就睡在沙发上了。

Usually I hate pancakes but beggars can’t be choosers. So I walked in hoping to find some discarded pancakes since I had no money. 通常我不喜欢吃烙饼，但是叫花子不能挑肥拣瘦，所以我还是走了进去，希望能找到一些别人吃剩的烙饼，因为我身无分文。

2. Once bitten, twice shy. 一朝被蛇咬，十年怕井绳；一次上当，下次小心。如：

She certainly won’t swim again—once bitten, twice shy. 她肯定不会再游泳了——所谓一朝被蛇咬，十年怕井绳。

I try to avoid meeting her. But probably once bitten, twice shy, I always feel nervous whenever I see her. 我尽量避免与她见面。但也许是一朝被蛇咬十年怕井绳吧，我每次见到她都感到很紧张。

A: Do you think he will marry again？你觉得他会再婚吗？

B: I’m afraid he won’t—once bitten, twice shy. 恐怕不会了——所谓一朝被蛇咬十年怕井绳啊。

3. It never rains but it pours. 不雨则已，一雨倾盆；灾祸等不发生则已，一发生便接踵而至。如：

First his car broke down, then he lost my key—it never rains but it pours! 先是他的汽车出了故障，接着又丢了钥匙——真是祸不单行!

请再看下面一段长对话：

A: Oh, my God! It’s the end of the world! 哦，上帝！世界末日到了！

B: What’s the matter? 出什么事了？

A: I got sacked yesterday. 我昨天被炒了鱿鱼。

B: Look on the bright side. Perhaps you can find a better job. 往好的方面看，也许你可以找到一份更好的工作。
