A misbehaving minister is regarded as a government’s Achilles’_____and is expected to resign.
选项
A、leg
B、heel
C、knee
D、ankle
答案
B
解析
Achilles’heel意为“(某人性格中最易受攻击或批评的)致命弱点,人的弱点”。Achilles阿喀琉斯,出自希腊神话,是一名英雄。出生后被其母亲握脚踵倒提着在冥河水中浸过,因此除未浸到水的脚踵外,浑身刀枪不入。故Achilles’heel直译为阿喀琉斯的脚踵,引申为致命弱点,惟一的弱点,如:I think Frank’s vanity is his Achilles’heel.我认为虚荣是弗兰克的弱点。
