｜《经济学人》原文：
 
▪️ The French firm had been dragging its feet in responding to the DOJ, infuriating prosecutors.
 
▫️ 这家法国公司对美国司法部的调查一直不积极合作，激怒了检察官。
 
｜知识点：
 
▪️ 这里的“drag one's feet”也作drag one's heels，字面上的意思是，走路时不完全抬起双脚，每走一步都拖着走。

▫️ 比如：Please stop dragging your feet, you're going to wear out the soles of your shoes.
 
▪️ 所以“drag one's feet / heels”引申出来的含义为“（因为不情愿而）拖拖拉拉地做，磨蹭”，即慢吞吞地做某事或因为不想做某事而拖延时间。(To act or work with intentional slowness, deliberately hold back or delay because one does not want to do something.)
 
｜用法举例：
 
▫️ We can't be late for the dentist, so quit dragging your feet and get in the car!

▪️ 我们去看牙医不能迟到，所以别磨蹭了，快上车吧!

▫️ The company had been dragging its heels concerning an investment in real estate.

▪️ 公司在投资房地产问题上一直拖拖拉拉。

▫️ This shows that the problem is expanding continuously and the relevant authorities absolutely cannot drag their feet in dealing with the problem.

▪️ 由此可见，问题正不断扩大，有关部门绝对不能再拖延处理。
