"What are we suppose to do? "

...sorry for the confusion Rich, that was just my attempt at a sentence re-ordering exercise, didn't mean it as an exercise for others, hehe, though that would have been fun

""Put a sock in it!" in Chinese?"

...hehe, yeah, I was thinking about it at the time. I guess it's so idiomatic that any translation isn't likely to involve a sock. Yeah, I've heard those other expressions, but they just sound so to the point, not idiomatic like the sock one.

最好静一点儿...那么客气 [so polite], especially in comparison with 闭嘴

""knock their socks off"

haha, great story, thanks, classic, can just picture it :)

谢谢Kaorinz,不过我不干当。。。我的中文一定还很简单,很基本的。在我看我一定要多多努力学习中文

第一次去中国比我的梦想一定不辜负,玩儿的那么开心,比较少的时间同时比较多的东西和事情经验,换句话说我感觉是个很丰富和惊讶的经验。没去过的话,我一定会推荐

我元旦怎么过呢?我讨论这个问题在这里:

。。。可是我警告你,当然我的文章有很多的错误所以不太注意我的语法和用法,呵呵

再说,谢谢朋友 囧
