美國情景喜劇俚語百分百
1、Achilles' heel俚語含義：a weak or vulnerable factor唯一致命的弱點
例：Ah beer!My Achilles ' heel!
[用法來源]
Achilles,the hero of Homer's Iliad,the son of Peleus and Thetis and slayer of Hector.The legend of Achilles has it that he was dipped into the river Styx by his mother in order to make him invulnerable.His heel wasn't covered by the water and he was later killed by an arrow wound to his heel.

Skit:From "the Simpsons":
Homer :Mmmm...Forbidden donut!
My one weakness ..my Achilles ' heel!!
Note:這里用forbidden來修飾donut,是要表達Homer對甜面包圈那種又愛又怕的感受。Homer太喜歡甜面包圈了，雖然它那么甜，會讓他發胖，可是他實在割舍不下。
Bonus:在美國，警察們有個喜歡吃甜面包圈的名聲。因此俚語Donut ranger指巡警。

Can you believe it?The donut ranger gave me a ticket for driving too slow!
巡警給我開了張罰單，說我開車太慢！
