"Curtain (something) off" = kéo màn xuống -> cụm từ này nghĩa là ngăn cách cái gì hoặc một nơi nào đó bằng màn, rèm hoặc tấm chắn để không cho ai hoặc điều gì tiếp cận.

Ví dụ
In the video captured by CCTV, a group of policemen and police volunteers are seen standing around a man resting on a bed in an emergency room. Two of the volunteers then curtain off the bed and appear to punch the man repeatedly.

Regus decided to replace an outdated 75in TV screen in a high-end (tinh tế, sành điệu) meeting suite of their central Copenhagen facility. The overall requirement was to create a superb viewing experience for customers and visitors without having to curtain off a magnificent view out of the suite across the capital.

Glenn Wheatley told the ABC the loss was a "one-off" (việc chỉ xảy ra một lần) and denies he almost went bankrupt (bị vỡ nợ, bị phá sản). He also says he didn't change seating plans or curtain off venues to make them look full. He describes the tour as "a rare loss" but also a big loss, which, together with Michael Chugg, he took on the chin.
