deaf的意思是“聾的;聽不見的”。fall on deaf ears可不是“落在了聽不見的耳中”,而真實含義是“對...置若罔聞,充耳不聞,沒有被聽取,未被理睬”。

【例句】
You will go before the council, but your words will fall on deaf ears.
你是可以去議院,但議員們對你的話會充耳不聞。

I reminded him three times that the homework assignment was due but it fell on deaf ears. Now he’s failed!
我提醒了他三次該交家庭作業(yè)了,但他當耳旁風,置之不理。這不,他考試不及格。
