每日一句学英语：“放我一马”英语怎么说？

Jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。今天是吴琼要问的是：放我一马。

Jessica: Wuqiong, let's hit the gym tonight!

WQ: 哎哟，我上次做瑜珈的时候差点把脖子拉伤！你就放我一马吧！对了，这在美语里该怎么说呢？

Jessica: You want me to let you off the hook again? Uh-uh, 我每次叫你，你都推三挡四的，这次绝对不行！

WQ: 哦，放我一马就是let me off the hook. Jessica, could you please let me off the hook? just this once? I'm begging you!

Jessica: That's really cute, but NO, you HAVE to come with me. You're not getting off the hook this time.

WQ: 瑜珈真不是我强项，要不，咱们还是去打网球吧？上次打网球，我轻而易举就打败你了！I beat you......

Jessica: Yeah, you beat me hands down! I do recall!

WQ: 刚想问你轻而易举怎么说，原来是 hands down! Yes, I beat you hands down last time! 我把你打败，让你输得五体投地！

Jessica: (hahaha...) Fine, we'll find a sport that we both like.

WQ: 好啊，快走吧，再不走数学课就要迟到了！

Jessica: 数学课啊。。。All of a sudden I'm not feeling well.

WQ: 啊? 怎么突然不舒服? 你是不是又想翘课 escape....escape....

Jessica: Wuqiong, 翘课英语是 play hooky，H-O-O-K-Y, hooky, play hooky, 翘课！

WQ: Well, you shouldn't play hooky! Let's go.

Jessica: Do I really have to go? It's so boring.....
