Ví dụ
Laughter is the best medicine. This means if you're ailing (ốm yếu) in any way, laughter will help you feel better. I believe that. When you laugh up your sleeve, you're discreet (dè dặt, kín đáo). But, unless your shirt is soundproof, you're going to get caught.
Sprenz is a master criminal craftsman, consummate (giỏi) liar, and accomplished actor obsessed with a need to steal cars, beat his wife and laugh up his sleeve at law and order. An ingenious (khéo léo, tài tình) mind gone awry (hỏng, thất bại), a bold band whose derring-do makes him (as) hard to trap as a greased pig.
And when a skillful impostor (kẻ giả mạo) who knows how to make clever use of circumstances comes to them he can manage to get rich in a short time and laugh up his sleeve over these simpletons.
