短语 with flying colours 的意思是某人表现出色，取得了极好成绩。

例句

My daughter passed her exams¹ with flying colours! We're going² out to celebrate³ tonight.

'Did⁴ John pass his driving test this morning?' 'Yes, he passed with flying colours.'

请注意

还有一个短语to show one's true⁵ colours, 意思是当某人的本来面目或性格表现出来了。有一支很有名的歌 True Colors, 歌词中有一段 "And I see your true colors shining⁶ through". 意思是 I can see your real⁷ personality⁸ and who you are 我能看到真正的你。但这个短语也可以带有贬义，比如:

Tom showed his true colours in the restaurant – he was⁹ so impatient¹⁰ and started shouting at the waitress¹¹!

Tom 在餐厅里终于原形比露了，他很没耐心，对服务员大吼大叫！

请注意单词'颜色' 在美语里的拼写是 color, 在英式英语里是 colour.
