1.关于猫的英语俗语谚语

a cat nap 打个盹儿

let the cat out of the bag 放出袋中猫（泄密，说漏嘴）

more than one way to skin a cat 剥猫皮各有巧妙不同（另有办法）

rain cats and dogs 天上下猫，天上下狗（倾盆大雨）

All cats are（或look）black（或gray）in the dark.或者We are in the same boat.也就是说：大家彼此彼此（We are all equal或We are in the same situation。就像「五十步笑百步」或「乌鸦笑猪黑」。

一言既出，驷马难追：有人译成：One word lets slip and four horses will fail to catch it. 或 A statement that once let loose cannot be caught by four galloping horses.

西方人也喜欢猫，并将猫养为宠物。但是黑猫却让西方人心生恐惧，尤其是英国人，他们将黑猫与女巫联系在上起。如果是在一个漆黑的星期五晚上碰上一只黑猫，便预示着此人会遭厄运。在英国古代的传说中，人们认为妖魔常变成黑色的动物，尤其是黑猫，还有人说黑猫就是巫婆变的。黑猫有九命，巫婆有变九次的魔法。杀死一只黑猫，她还可以再变八次。所以英语的猫还含有"心地恶毒的女人，爱说人坏话的女人"等意思。如，She is a cat（她是个包藏祸心的女人），Mrs Smith is a perfect cat（史密斯太太是个地地道道的长舌妇），The man and his wife lead a cat and dog life, and both are miserable （他们夫妻俩经常吵架，两人都感到痛苦）。It's difficult to get a man to bell the cat（敢于在危险中挺身而出的人不容易找到）。与猫有关的成语也很多，如：A cat has nine lives（猫有九命--自有天相），Cats hide their claws（猫总是藏起自己的爪子--知人知面不知心），All cats are grey in the dark （黑暗处的猫都是灰色的--人未出名时看起来都差不多），A gloved cat catches no mice（戴手套的猫抓不到老鼠--不愿吃苦的人成不了大事业），The cat shuts its eyes when stealing cream（掩耳盗铃，自欺欺人）。Care killed the cat（忧虑伤身）， Let the cat out of bag（无意中泄露秘密），There's more ways than one to kill a cat（有的是办法），When the cat is away, the mice will play（猫不在，老鼠玩得自在），，like a cat on hot bricks（焦躁不安，如热锅上的蚂蚁），not a cat in hell's chance（毫无机会）。

When the cat's away, the mice will play.

猫是老鼠的天敌。没有猫，老鼠就会肆意妄为。在中世纪的欧洲，基督教徒曾认定猫是魔鬼附身的动物，数以万计的猫因此被处死。不料，猫的厄运招致老鼠的猖獗。很快，鼠害成灾，黑死病一波接一波的横扫欧洲大陆。这段惨痛的历史教训充分证明"狸猫不在，老鼠闹债"——When the cat's away, the mice will play.

A cat has nine lives.

英语国家的人相信，猫这种动物命大，福大，造化大。2001年，美洲动物医疗协会杂志刊登过一份研究报告，研究人员调查了132起猫从高空坠地的事件，坠地的平均高度是六层楼，结果百分之九十的猫坠地后都存活下来了。它们在空中灵活地翻转身体，四肢着地，爪子上的肉垫大大缓解了坠地时的冲力。古人对此肯定也有所了解，认为"猫有九条命"（A cat has nine lives.）

There are more ways of killing a cat than by choking it with cream.

"杀猫的方法很多，不必非用奶油呛死它"，有点类似于中国的"不要非在一棵树上吊死".

It is 1,510 miles southwest of its nearest neighbor St. Helena, and 1,950 miles west of Africa. Discovered by the Portuguese admiral（葡萄牙海军上将） of the same name in 1506, and settled in 1810, the island belongs to Great Britain and has a population of a few hundred.Coming in a close second——and often wrongly mentioned as the most distant island——is Easter Island, which lies 1,260 miles east of its nearest neighbour, Pitcairn Island, and 2,300 miles west of South America.The mountainous 64-square-mile island was settled around the 5th century, supposedly by people who were lost at sea. They had no connection with the outside world for more than a thousand years, giving them plenty of time to build more than 1,000 huge stone figures, called moai, for which the island is most famous.On Easter Sunday, 1722, however, settlers from Holland moved in and gave the island its name. Today, 2,000 people live on the Chilean territory（智利领土）. They share one street, a small airport and a few hours of television per day.。
