第一、迷你对话
A: I am afraid I cannot lend 3 my new car to you. I cannot live it without it for a minute.
恐怕我不能把新车接给您，我一分钟也离不开它。
B: Don’t be such a dog in the manger.
别这么不够朋友。
第二、地道表达
a dog in the manger
1. 解词释义
A dog in the manger字面意思是“狗占着马槽”，比喻为“占据某职位又不去做那个位置事情的人”或“占据某物又不用某物的人”，和我们汉语中的“占着茅坑不拉屎”的意思相同。
2. 拓展例句
e 1.g. Don't be such a dog in the manger! Just lend him your bicycle since 4 you're not going 5 out this afternoon!
别占着茅坑不拉屎了！把自行车借给他呀，你今天下午又不出去。
e.g. Don't be such a dog in the manger. Give the tennis bat 6 to me since you have classes this afternoon.
