out of a clear blue sky
出乎意料
A:The trouble is not that. It is that he may suddenly remember something I promised him a couple of weeks ago, out of a clear blue sky. Then he complains that I have gone back on my words.
A:麻烦不在这儿,而在于他会突然出人意料地想起两三周前我对他的某个承诺,然后他就会抱怨我言而无信。
B:Does he do that with his Dad? I mean, does he complain things to his father?
B:对他爸他也这样吗?我是说,他会向他父亲抱怨吗?
A:He never does, and in fact, he seldom communicates with him.
A:从不,事实是,他几乎不与他交谈。
B:But didn't you say that his Dad takes him under his wings?
B:但你不是说他爸总是宠着他吗?
A:Yes, I did. He only takes side with him. He seldom asks what Dick is doing.
A:对,我是这样说的。不过他只是偏袒迪克,而很少过问他在干什么。
