你省省吧，少教训人了
对 话
Kerry：Did you finish your homework yet？You know it's due tomorrow.
凯芮：你作业写完了吗？你知道明天就要交了。
Brendan：Not yet. I had to help my brother finish his project first.
布兰登：还没。我得先帮我哥完成他的研究报告。
Kerry：You know, you should really plan your time better.
凯芮：你知道吗，你真的该要好好规划你的时间。
Brendan：Hey, why don't you get off your high horse？You虐e no better than
me.
布兰登：喂，你省省吧。你跟我是半斤八两。
Kerry：Well, I always get my homework done on time.
凯芮：拜托，我可是每次都有准时把作业写完。
Brendan：But you usually just copy my work anyway！
布兰登：你通常不过就是随便抄我的而已吧。
Kerry：Well, that's why I need you to hurry up and get it done.
凯芮：哎呀，这正是我叫你赶快写完的原因啊。

★get off your high horse字面上的意思是从你那匹高大骏马的背上下来。从前的高官出门时经常骑马，这些人的座骑通常都是精挑细选的高大骏马，显示他们高人一等的身分地位，所以后来be on one's high horse 就表示某人高高在上、趾高气扬，而 get off one's high horse 则是叫人从骏马背上下来，也就是别摆架子、省省吧的意思。
