每日口語(2.27):He is on his high horse these days.

He is on his high horse these days.
    他最近幾天很囂張。
    詞組 be on one's high horse 指的是趾高氣揚、目空一切、盛氣凌人的那種狀態(tài)，用中文的“囂張”來表達比較貼切。
    例句：Joe seems to be on his high horse these days. This is "When the cat's away, the mice will play".
    喬這幾天很不可一世，正應了那句“貓不在家，耗子成精”（“山中無老虎，猴子稱大王”）。
