英文成语串串烧:谁的表达更地道(图)

你猜得出这些成语的意思吗?

下文加粗部分的英文成语中都有一个词与一项娱乐活动或体育运动有关。请先读一读下面的小故事,你能猜出这些成语的含义吗?

We always knew what our boss, Winona, was thinking. Right off the bat, as soon as she walked through the door, she'd let you know what she wanted you to do. Her style was clear, direct, and open. She always put her cards on the table.

If you did something wrong or said something inappropriate, Winona told you were off base. If she thought you were doing well and on the ball, she told you that, too. And when she said no, she meant no. No dice. Not many people argued with Winona and won. But I think she really enjoyed people who would stand up to her and give their own opinions. I think she secretly got a kick out of it.

现在让我们看看这些成语在例句中的用法,这回你能猜出它们的意思了吗?
