Being Tactful

Let's see what I have in my bag of tricks to entertain the baby.

等待游戏, 等待策略

Although most people were relieved that the waiting game was over, the first days and nights were nerve-racking.

尽管大多数人因为等待游戏结束而松了一口气，但最初的日子和夜晚还是让人神经紧张。

I killed two birds with one stone and picked the kids up on the way to the supermarket.

They agreed to suspend a loan they had been on the verge of sending to Peking, and promised to wait for the cat to jump.

天鹅绒手套, 天鹅绒之手

He may appear to rule with a velvet glove, but he is really quite cruel.

他可能看起来用天鹅绒手套统治，但实际上他相当残忍。

纠缠力, 烦扰影响力

The kids used their pester power to convince their parents to take them to the amusement park.

孩子们利用他们的纠缠力说服父母带他们去游乐园。

I speak softly and carry a big stick to maintain a peaceful atmosphere.

He literally used the oldest trick in the book and still won.
