英语情景对话：
A: I’m sure you never dare to go against your wife.

B: Why should I go against her? She always seems to have better ideas.

A: Have you ever got the goods on her for wrong doings?

B:Get the goods on her? She never allows me to go to her office. And she is a good woman. She’s been faithful all these years.
抓她的把柄？她从来不让我去她的办公室。她是个好女人，这些年一直很本分。
A: Well, it’s nice to have a husband like you.
恩，有你这么样的丈夫是她的福气。
习语：get the goods on sb.
解词释义：goods本义为“货物，商品”。在美国俚语中，the goods是指“盗窃得来的财物、违禁品”。知道了the goods的含义，get the goods on sb. 的意思就不难理解了，它的意思是“掌握某人的确凿证据”“抓住某人的把柄”。
支持范例：
He is afraid to fire her because she got the goods on him.
他不敢开除她，因为他的把柄被她抓住了。
The policemen kept blackmailing him because they had got the goods on him.
警察之所以经常去敲他的竹杠是因为抓住把柄了。

他们现在抓住了你的把柄了，因为他们知道你带那个女孩到你房间里去了。
