核心句型：
When the cat's away, the mice will play.

山中無(wú)老虎，猴子稱霸王。

When the cat's away, the mice will play.直譯過(guò)來(lái)就是：“貓兒不在家，耗子就會(huì)出來(lái)活動(dòng)”，這個(gè)短語(yǔ)的正確意思是：“山中無(wú)老虎，猴子稱霸王”。因此，當(dāng)美國(guó)人說(shuō)"When the cat's away, the mice will play."時(shí)，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"The subordinates will do as they like when the superior is away."、"The weak will become active without the strong."。

情景對(duì)白：
Shirley: Do you know the boss's assistant has criticized a few colleagues today just for some trivial things? We should take care.

雪莉：你知道嗎?老板助理今天因?yàn)橐恍┬∈屡u(píng)了幾個(gè)同事。我們最好當(dāng)心點(diǎn)。

Jane: Yeah. The boss is away at the moment. When the cat's away, the mice will play.

簡(jiǎn)：是啊，現(xiàn)在老板不在，山中無(wú)老虎，猴子稱霸王。

搭配句積累：
①Now the project should be in the charge of an assistant for the boss is on a business trip.

老板出差了，現(xiàn)在這個(gè)項(xiàng)目竟然由一個(gè)助理負(fù)責(zé)。

②The staff become too casual without the boss there.

老板不在，員工們?cè)絹?lái)越散漫了。

③She turned down our application for more technical personnel without asking the boss.

她沒(méi)問(wèn)過(guò)老板，就拒絕了我們要更多多技術(shù)人員的申請(qǐng)。

④A little secretry should dare yell at us.

一個(gè)小小的秘書(shū)居然敢沖我們大吼。
