核心句型：
Don't knock it!
别挑剔了！
Don't knock it 字面意思是：“不要敲它”，你可不要被它的表面意思给迷惑了哦。knock在此处表示：“找茬，挑剔，非难，抨击”，所以这个习语的真正含义是：“不要太挑剔”。因此，当美国人说"Don't knock it!"时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"Don't be so fussy 1!"、"Don't be too particular about others!"、"Don't be so finicky!"。
情景对白：
Lenna: I'm thinking about changing a job with a better salary and more comfortable working environment.
