1--We all need to breathe to live.
2--And even the best swimmers can hold their breath for only so long. Don't Hold Your Breath.
1--Is this a warning for swimmers and divers?
2--Hey, do you need help moving to your new apartment this weekend?
1--Oh no, that's okay. Evan said he would help. He has a truck.
2--Evan? Don't hold your breath waiting for him.
1--He said he'd help me move, and then never showed up.
2--Oh. Well then... what you doing this weekend?
1--We say "don't hold your breath," when we think something is not likely to happen soon...if ever.
2--Sometimes children threaten to hold their breath until they get what they want- which usually does not work.
1--You can also say, I wouldn't hold my breath.

譯文:
1--我們都需要呼吸才能生存。
2--甚至最好的游泳運(yùn)動(dòng)員也不能屏住呼吸很長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)間。Don't Hold Your Breath
1--這是對(duì)游泳運(yùn)動(dòng)員和潛水員的警告嗎?
2--嘿,這個(gè)周末你需要幫忙搬進(jìn)新的公寓嗎?
1--哦不,沒關(guān)系。艾文說他會(huì)幫我。他有一輛卡車。
2--艾文?別對(duì)他報(bào)太大希望。
1--他曾說過要幫我搬家,然后就從來(lái)沒有出現(xiàn)過。
2--哦。那好吧,你這周末有事情嗎?
1--我們用“Don't Hold Your Breath”來(lái)形容我們認(rèn)為某事不會(huì)很快發(fā)生,或者是永不會(huì)發(fā)生。
2--有時(shí)孩子們用憋著呼吸的手段威脅借以得到他們想要的東西,但通常并不能起到作用。
1--你也可以說,我并不抱有期待。
