Ví dụ
He waved off suggestions of impropriety.

Disabled cyclist chosen to wave off riders on the inaugural tour.

Chaos erupted. People screamed (la ó), and security agents scrambled (xô đẩy). I had the same thought I’d had in the Florida classroom on 9/11. I knew my reaction would be broadcast (phát truyền hình) around the world. The bigger the frenzy (sự điên cuồng), the better for the attacker. I waved off Don White, my lead Secret Service agent. I did not want footage (cảnh) of me being hustled (vội vã) out of the room.
