1. Cat Burlgar (skilled, sneaky burglar/thief)
入室偷盗(偷窃惯犯、入室偷盗的老手)
 
A Cat Burglar is a thief or robber who robs somebody's home in a silent and sneaky way. Think of a cat walking in the dark, with ninja-like movements, almost without making a noise.
“A Cat Burglar”是那种会用安静而狡猾的方式盗窃别人家的小偷或强盗。想象一只在黑暗中行走的猫,它有忍者般的动作,几乎不不会发出任何声响。
 
2. Play Cat and Mouse (to strategically chase, tease, torture)
玩猫捉老鼠的一套(奸诈的追赶,挑衅和折磨)
 
To play cat and mouse is for somebody or something to chase the other in a very strategic, teasing, and game-like way (like a cat chasing and playing with a mouse). Think of a superhero movie when the villain1 is chasing an innocent person in a cruel, strategic way.
“play cat and mouse”玩猫捉老鼠的游戏,是指某人或某事用战略性的手段挑衅和追逐着其他人(就像猫在追老鼠)。想象在一个超级英雄电影里面,反派人物在用各种残忍狡猾的方式追杀一个无辜善良的人。
 
3. Look What the Cat Dragged In! (an unpleasant surprise to see you)
看看撞上了哪只讨厌猫!(见到你真让人不痛快)
 
This is a way to express surprise, and sometimes disgust at a person who shows up. The person may very well haggard (exhausted, dirty, and/or not in the best shape). We may use this in an ironic2 tone to welcome somebody for a pleasant surprise too. If you have a cat that goes outside, you know that they bring back all kinds of unpleasant things. For example, just yesterday my cat Meru walked in with a pigeon [type of bird] in his mouth.
这是用来表达惊讶,而且有时候是讨厌的某人出现时的表达。那个人可能是非常憔悴(筋疲力尽,肮脏,或不在最佳状态)的。我们也可以使用这种讥讽的口吻来欢迎某人带给我们的惊喜。如果你的猫走到外面,你肯定知道他们会带回各种各样肮脏的东西。例如,昨天我的猫回来的时候,嘴里含着一只鸽子。
