　　Li: Oh, no, writing on the wall? 我可不允許任何人在我家這干干凈凈的墻上寫字?!Dominic, 是不是你在墻上寫字了?!別淘氣!

　　Rob: No, no, no - theres nothing written on your wall, Li! In English, we use the expression the writing is on the wall when we want to say that something bad is going to happen to something or someone and there isnt much you can do about it . Like my team. If it loses this match it is out of the championship.

　　Li: 這么說當(dāng)你說 The writing is on the wall 意思就是注定要失敗，這跟在墻上寫字沒有關(guān) 系，哦，沒人能在我的墻上寫字哦?

　　Rob: No. Here are some examples of how you use this expression.

　　My auntie is really sad because she had to close her shop. To be honest, the writing has been on the wall for her business for a long time.

　　You know Mary. Shes a party girl that loves the city but I heard her husband is shy and has always wanted to live on a farm. The writing is definitely on the wall for their marriage.

　　I havent studied hard this year and I have been doing badly in exams. My teachers told me if I dont try harder the writing is on the wall.

　　Li: 你瞧 Rob 你可真會(huì)闖禍! 把葡萄酒灑了一地，把這漂亮的地毯給毀了!

　　Rob: Red wine, white carpet... The writing was on the wall for this one. Sorry. And bye...

　　Li: Bye Rob. Bye carpet.

　　Dominic: Carpet?! I want to write on the carpet!
