核心句型：
Don't goof 1 up.
别出岔子。
goof up直译过来就是：“闲混，打发时间”，这个短语的正确意思是：“出岔子，犯错，把……搞乱”。因此，当美国人说"Don't goof up."时，他/她要表达的意思就是"Don't make any mistakes."、"Don't get into any trouble or accident."、"Take care and don't do anything wrong."。
情景对白：
Boss: Don't goof up. This project is very important, and we have invested a lot of money in it.
老板：别出岔子，这个项目很重要，我们已经投了大量资金。
Benjamin: I see. I would do as you told.
本杰明：我知道。我会按照您的吩咐做的。
搭配句积累：
①I can't believe such an arduous 2 task is distributed to me.
我不敢相信这么艰巨的任务竟然分配给了我。
②I will try me best to accomplish the survey.
