Dead in his tracks是什么意思?

这是个好问题。 Stop/dead in one's tracks意味着它停止在原处并且不会移动。通常这样停止或完全停止是由于恐惧或某些噪音。就本视频而言,是因为我不想脱颖而出。例子: We stopped dead in our tracks when we heard rustling in the bushes. (当灌木丛中传出沙沙作响的声音时,我们停了下来。)例: The kids were running along the lawn when a loud bang stopped them dead in their tracks. (当孩子们在草坪上奔跑时,很大的声音使他们停下来。)
