1--We all need to breathe to live.
2--And even the best swimmers can hold their breath for only so long. Don't Hold Your Breath.
1--Is this a warning for swimmers and divers?
2--Hey, do you need help moving to your new apartment this weekend?
1--Oh no, that's okay. Evan said he would help. He has a truck.
2--Evan? Don't hold your breath waiting for him.
1--He said he'd help me move, and then never showed up.
2--Oh. Well then... what you doing this weekend?
1--We say "don't hold your breath," when we think something is not likely to happen soon...if ever.
2--Sometimes children threaten to hold their breath until they get what they want- which usually does not work.
1--You can also say, I wouldn't hold my breath.

1--我们都需要呼吸才能生存。
2--甚至最好的游泳运动员也不能屏住呼吸很长一段时间。Don't Hold Your Breath
1--这是对游泳运动员和潜水员的警告吗?
2--嘿,这个周末你需要帮忙搬进新的公寓吗?
1--哦不,没关系。艾文说他会帮我。他有一辆卡车。
2--艾文?别对他报太大希望。
1--他曾说过要帮我搬家,然后就从来没有出现过。
2--哦。那好吧,你这周末有事情吗?
1--我们用“Don't Hold Your Breath”来形容我们认为某事不会很快发生,或者是永不会发生。
2--有时孩子们用憋着呼吸的手段威胁借以得到他们想要的东西,但通常并不能起到作用。
1--你也可以说,我并不抱有期待。
