对话精讲
第一、地道短语
skate on thin ice
1. 解词释义
Skate是动词，本意为“滑冰，溜冰”，thin ice则指“薄冰”，所以此语字面意思是“在很薄的冰上滑冰”，比喻“情况危险，危急”，“处在风险中，处在需要慎重从事的情况下或者是有惹祸上身的情况”，类似汉语中的“如履薄冰”。
2. 支持范例
I try to stay well informed so I don't end up skating on thin ice when the teacher asks me a question.
我尽力做好准备，当老师问道我问题时，我就不会答不上来。
You are skating on thin ice when you ask me that!
当你问及我那件事情时，你的情况危险了。
You're skating on thin ice when you ask me what I think of you.
当您问我我如何看待你时，你的情况不妙。
You're skating on thin ice by always coming in late.
你总是上班迟到，这个情况对你很不好。
第二、词海拾贝

释义2：与…和睦相处
