迷你對話：
A:Did you hear that John got a raise in his salary.
你有沒有聽說約翰加薪了？
B:John. He’s so lazy and can do nothing well.
約翰？他不僅懶惰而且什么事情也做不好。
A:But he’s so good at brown-nosing the boss.
但是他最擅長的是拍老板的馬屁。
B:That’s it.
原來如此。
地道表達：
brown-nose：獻殷勤，拍馬屁
解詞釋義：
brown-nose的本意是“棕色的”。在西方人看來，鼻子之所以成為棕色的是由于拍馬匹造成的。因為該習語引申為“拍馬屁，獻殷勤”。
支持范例：
Eg. Jack is a brown-nose and none of his colleagues likes him in the company.
杰克是個馬屁精，公司里沒有一個同事喜歡他。
Eg. I don't like Peter. He's such a brown-nose.
我不喜歡彼得。他真是個馬屁精。
