1.A black sheep
你以為是“黑色的綿羊”？實際上是害群之馬

2.Don’t have a cow
也并不是“沒有奶牛”，而是別大驚小怪

We are going to have a buffet this night, that’s to say we can really pig out!
今晚我們要去吃自助餐，這就意味著我們可以大吃特吃了！
4.Right off the bat
“馬上離開蝙蝠”？什么鬼？！其實是立刻，瞬間的意思
I realized that she is my goddess right off the bat.
那一瞬間我就意識到，她是我的女神。
5.Teach a pig to play on a flute
“教豬吹長笛”？實際上就是我們常說的那句“趕鴨子上架”
