Showing Off One's Proficiency with the Axe Before Lu Ban
the Master Carpenter
Lu Ban was supposed to be a consummate carpenter in ancient times. It is said that he once carved a wooden phoenix that was so lifelike that it actually flew in the sky for three days. Thus it was considered the height of folly to show off one's skill with an axe in front of Lu Ban.
This idiom excoriates those who show off their slight accomplishments in front of experts.
班门弄斧
古代有一个建筑和雕刻技术非常高超的人，名叫鲁班，木匠行里尊称他为祖师。

在鲁班门前摆弄斧子，当然显得有些自不量力了。
“班门弄斧”这个成语，用来比喻在行家面前显示本领。

英语典故——精选推荐
英语典故1）Mind your P's and Q's: 谨慎你知道Mind your P's and Q's的来历吗？它的意思是be careful, behave yourself，也就是"⼩⼼、谨慎"。
从17世纪晚期开始，Mind your P's and Q's被⼴泛使⽤，关于它的故事有很多。
其中⼀种说法和酒店有关。
当时，在英国的⼀些酒吧⾥有两种盛酒器具：品脱和夸脱。
品脱⼤，夸脱⼩；为了在客⼈们结账的时候不出差错，酒店侍者必须在酒店的⼩⿊板上记下客⼈们⽤的到底是哪种容器，P代表pints，Q代表qauts。
因此，酒店⽼板也不断的提醒他们：注意你们的品脱和夸脱。
另⼀种说法从课堂上来。
⼩学⽣在拼写p和q时总是容易将它们混淆。
P反着写就成了q，⽽q反过来写⼜变成了p。
这两个字母不但顺序相邻，⽽且拼写相似，难怪⽼师要说Mind your P's and Q's。
再来听听下⾯这个故事。
这种说法中P指的是pea cloth，⼀种粗呢布料；Q代表queue，指的是"（朝⾂或⽔⼿们的）辫⼦"。
年轻的贵族们总被提醒不要将假发上的粉末弄到粗呢夹克上；另⼀种解释是：⽔⼿们刚上船时，有⼀个惯例，就是将他们的辫⼦放在焦油⾥蘸⼀蘸，不过要⼩⼼把油弄到粗呢夹克上。
It originated in British pubs as an abbreviation for "mind your pints and quarts." Supposedly this warned the barkeep to serve full measure, mark the customer's tab accurately, etc.It meant "mind your pea (jacket) and queue." Queues (pigtails) were often powdered, and wifeypoo was telling hubby to keep the cruddy kid stuff off his collar. An even dumber variation of this involves "pieds," French for "feet," and says minding your p's and q's means combing your hair and polishing your shoes, or something like that.P and q stands for "prime quality." According to the Oxford English Dictionary, to be P and Q was a regional expression meaning top quality.听完了这些故事，你也明⽩mind your P's and Q's的意思了吧？造个句⼦：She told her son to mind his P's and Q's at the banquet。
