rain on your parade

Sometimes at parade, they will throw candies to all the little children. The most important parade in America takes place on the fourth of July every year, which is America’s birthday. It was great fun. 有时候在游行的时候，他们会向小孩们扔糖果。美国最重要的游行是在每天的7月4日这天，这天是美国的独立日。这一天非常热闹。 But can you imagine if it started to rain on the parade? That’s would be terrible. And that’s what this expression means. To rain on your parade means to do something terrible to your plans. 但是试想下，如果游行的时候下雨的话，会怎么样？那就太糟糕啦。这就是这个短语的意思。To rain on your parade就是给你的计划泼冷水的意思。 You have some plans, you have something that you want to do, but if it rains on your parade, you plans have been cancelled or denied or destroyed. So you want to have a picnic this Saturday, but it’s gonna rain on Saturday. Oh on, it has rain on your parade. 你有一个计划，你有想要的做的事情，但是如果it rains on your parade,你的计划就被取消了、被破坏了。比如说你这周六想去野餐，但是周六要下雨，这时候就rains on your parade了。
