1. Close, but no cigar! 答案接近但还是不对！
Mike: I guess John and Jenny are going out nowadays.
迈克：我猜约翰和詹妮正在谈恋爱。
Rodger: Close, but no cigar! Jenny is always playing hard to get.

2. Cock and bull story 驴唇不对马嘴，瞎扯
Shut up, ok? I've had enough with your cock and bull story.
请你闭嘴！我已经听腻了你这种驴唇不对马嘴的瞎扯淡。
释义：
cock: 公鸡；bull: 公牛
鸡和牛之间井水不犯河水，既非盟友，也非故人，几乎是毫无关系的两种事物，把它们扯到一块，无异于“驴唇不对马嘴”。
