小强英语 第152期:"不作死就不会死"

If you don't play with fire, you won't get burned ------- 不作死就不会死

大家好，欢迎来到小强英语。“不作死就不会死”在生活当中出现的频率很高，这句话用英语怎么说呢？你可能会想到no zuo no die，这个用法已经被Urban Dictionary收录，但是广大的英美人士不一定知道这种表达。所以，我们可以这么说：If you don't play with fire, you won't get burned. 这里化用了一个习语：If you play with fire, you will get burned. That means if you do something dangerous, you will get hurt.用汉语说就是玩火者必自焚，作死者必死。我们来听一下例句：

-It's not my day today. I was caught cheating in the exam.
-我今天很倒霉。我考试作弊被逮个正着。
-Well, if you don't play with fire, you won't get burned.
-嗯，不作死就不会死。

节目最后，小强嘱咐大家，一定要自重，“不作死就不会死”。 If you don't play with fire, you won't get burned. 我们下期节目再会！获取更多英语资讯，敬请关注新浪微博@小强爱英语、@小强英语。
