第 291 课:人的鼻子-3

Someone who keeps his nose to the grindstone works very hard. 某些埋头于磨刀石的人工作十分勤劳。

This can help a worker keep his nose clean or stay out of trouble. 这样做会让工人循规蹈矩,远离麻烦

One unusual expression is that is no skin off my nose. 一个不常用的表达是我的鼻子没有差破皮。

This means that a situation does not affect or concern me. 意思是情况没有影响我或是与我相关。

We also say that sometimes a person cuts off his nose to spite his face. 我们有时也会说某些人(因为生气)作出损人不利己的事情。
