'Hot on one's trail' nghĩa là theo sát ai, gần như bắt kịp/đuổi kịp/bắt được người đó.

Ví dụ
The manhunt (săn lùng, truy lùng) for a suspect (kẻ tình nghi) who Fresno County Sheriff's Deputies say was armed (có vũ trang)  and dangerous (nguy hiểm) has come to a peaceful end. A tip led deputies to 25-year old Joshua Servis, wanted for a shooting and a stabbing (đâm người bằng dao). Deputies had been hot on his trail for days. Their manhunt intensified after detectives say he stabbed an acquaintance early on Thursday morning with a screwdriver. Just after noon today- he put up his hands and gave up.

A long, long time ago, a little boy named Elliott discovered a big-eyed, long-necked Yoda-esque cutie patootie that has been mistakenly left behind by his planet-mates. E.T., as he and his siblings call him, learns a bit about Planet Earth and its communication devices and sweet treats. Meanwhile, scientists are hot on his trail and the little guy just wants to phone home. Zinema 2's screening of the 1982 movie "E.T." is a kid-centric event: all adults must be accompanied by a kiddo.

The Hogs made a strong impression on Collin Sullivan during his unofficial visit last weekend, and while the in-state Texas Longhorns and others are still hot on his trail, there is a sense that Arkansas is in better shape for Sullivan than some might realize. The four-star receiver is being recruited by Arkansas wide receivers coach Justin Stepp, who landed four, four-star wideouts in last year's class. It will be interesting to see if and when Sullivan schedules a return trip to Fayetteville.
