释义:
Cook意思是煮,goose是鹅。cook someone's goose并不是“煮鹅”的意思,而是指打碎某人的计划,或者毁了一个人的名誉。
例句:
Our plane is leaving in an hour. And here we are stuck in some of the worst traffic we've ever seen. If we don't make that flight, we'll miss our connection. Then our goose will be cooked! We won't get to the port in time to board our cruise. Our vacation plans will be ruined.
我们的飞机一小时之后就要起飞了。可现在我们却被塞在路上。如果我们赶不上这班飞机,就会错过转机。那我们的计划就完全被打乱了! 我们也没办法按时登上游轮。那我们的度假计划就彻底泡汤了。
