地道表達(dá)：

meet trouble halfway

解詞釋義：

halfway的意思是“半路上”或“在中途中”，引申為“快要，幾乎”。習(xí)語(yǔ)meet trouble halfway意思是“麻煩還未來(lái)臨就覺(jué)得碰到麻煩了”，與“杞人憂天”意思相近。

支持范例：

I have been feeling upset as I think that I blew the English exam. Come on, don't meet trouble halfway, you are the first in our class.

我很煩惱，因?yàn)槲蚁胛业钠谀┛荚嚳荚伊恕５昧税?，別杞人憂天了，你可是我們把的第一名呀。

Things may not be as bad as he says. Maybe he is meeting trouble halfway.

事情未必如他所說(shuō)的那么可怕, 也許完全是杞人憂天。
