遭殃, 受严厉的申斥, 受重罚

\"Oh, oh! I was supposed to be at home for dinner at six and it\'s already seven-thirty. I\'ve got to go right now or I\'ll get it in the neck from my wife -- and she\'s cooking my favorite dish, a nice, big pot roast.\"

这人说:「哟,不得了。我应该六点到家吃晚饭的,可现在已经是七点半了。我得马上就回家,否则我太太要把我杀了。她今天还煮了一大锅我喜欢吃的焖肉。」

\"That vase is my mother\'s favorite. She liked it so much that she brought it back all the way back from China last year. I\'ll get it in the neck, I\'m sure, when my mom finds out that I broke it.\"

这孩子说:「那个花瓶是我妈最喜欢的。正因为她非常喜欢,所以她去年老远从中国带回来的。我妈知道我打破这只花瓶后,她肯定会惩罚我的。」
