英文故事要用什么时态
Can't hold a candle to（比不上，还不如）是个常用表达，来自尚未用电的时代，那时人们点蜡烛来照明。住在大宅子里的人会有仆人手持蜡烛引路，这个表达的意思是，连蜡烛都拿不好的人是不适合做仆人的。今天，这个成语是说某人无法与人比较或竞争。在下面的这首歌里，歌手多莉·帕顿告诉新欢，她的旧爱远比不上他。
Another expression is "hold your tongue." It means to be still and not talk. "Hold your tongue" is not something you would tell a friend. But a parent or teacher might use the expression to quiet a noisy child.另一个表达是hold your tongue，意思是安静别说话。hold your tongue这个词语不适合对朋友说。但父母或老师要求吵闹的孩子安静下来就会这么说。
"Hold out" is an expression one hears often in sports reports and labor news. It means to refuse to play or work. Professional football and baseball players hold out if their team refuses to pay them what they think they are worth.

The expression "hold up" has several different meanings. One is a robbery. A man with a gun may say, "This is a hold up. Give me your money." Another meaning is to delay. A driver late for work may tell his boss, "I was held up by heavy traffic." Someone who was robbed on the way to work might say, "Sorry, boss, I was held up by a hold up."hold up有好几种意思，一个是抢劫，持枪男子会说，"抢劫，拿钱来！"另一个意思是拖延，开车上班迟到的人会告诉老板，"路上堵车耽误了。"上班路上被劫的人会说，"我被抢劫了，所以路上耽误了。"
Still another meaning of the expression is for a story to be considered true after an investigation. The same driver late for work could say, "My boss did not believe a hold up held me up. But the police confirmed what I said so my story held up."还有一个意思是调查后确认某件事属实，同样开车上班迟到的员工会说，"我老板不相信我因为遭抢劫而耽误，不过警察证实了，所以情况属实。"

Our final expression is "hold the line." That means to keep a problem or situation from getting worse, to hold steady. For example, the president may say he will hold the line on taxes. He means there will be no increase in taxes. Now, I must hold the line on this program.
