介绍:
Blanket 毯子
A blanket keeps you warm because it is a woollen and thick. If a blanket is wet, you will certainly not lay it over yourself. So you may well imagine that the idiom“a wet blanket”must mean someone or something unpleasant.
At a party of wet blanket will just sit gloomily in a corner and talk to nobody. You will not invite such a person to your party，will you ？
A wet blanket can mean something discouraging. Suppose you are planning to. Go on an excursion. How do you feel when the weatherman says there will be rain? His forecast throws a wet blanket on your plan, doesn't it？
毯子给你保暖，因为它用羊毛制成而且很厚。不过如果毯子是湿的话，你肯定不会盖它的，因此你很可以想象得出：a wet blanket可以用来表示扫兴的人或事。
在晚会上，扫兴的人闷闷地坐在一个角落对谁也不说话。你不会邀请这样的人参加你的晚会的，对吧？
a wet blanket也可以指令人泄气的事，假设你打算做短途旅游，气象员报告说将会下雨，这时你的感受会怎么样呢？他的预测给你的计划泼了一盆冷水，是不是？
