Then Mr. Schindler came rushing down the stairs like a scalding cat.

之后 Schindler先生急匆匆地下楼，就像一只烫伤了的小猫。

Kindly remember, Madam, that I've seen you wake up squalling like a scalded cat simply because you dreamed of running in a fog.

要是一个有爪子有角的东西来坐在你胸口上，你会叫它流开去，对罢？你会拼命大喊大叫呢！你好好回想一下，太太，我曾经听见你像只烫坏的猫似的狂叫着醒来，那仅仅因为你梦见在雾里奔跑而已。

She rallied her frightened forces together. " If I don't get a hold on myself, " she thought, " I'll be squalling like a scalded cat" ! and the sight of Prissy's abject terror helped steady her. She took her by the shoulders and shook her.

" 如果我不能控制住自己，我就会像只烫坏了的猫儿似的拼命号叫了！" 同时百里茜那副可怜的惶恐相也帮助着她镇定下来，她抓住百里茜的肩膀使劲摇晃。
