2018上半年英語(yǔ)六級(jí)翻譯模擬題：及時(shí)滅火

　　請(qǐng)將下面這段話翻譯成英文：

　　及時(shí)滅火

　　面對(duì)一個(gè)怒發(fā)沖冠的人，“和他計(jì)較”是最糟糕的做法。在這種時(shí)候，任何不當(dāng)?shù)难孕卸己芸赡軙?huì)火上澆油——即使是正常的舉止，在憤怒的人眼中也會(huì)被誤讀。遇到這種情況，最好的辦法是安靜地坐下來(lái)，等他們宣泄完怒氣，然后問(wèn)道：“您愿意先冷靜一下，然后挑個(gè)時(shí)間，讓我們來(lái)討論一下XX問(wèn)題嗎?”假如你話音剛落，對(duì)方又開(kāi)始大發(fā)雷霆——沒(méi)關(guān)系，保持淡定，再試一次。

　　參考譯文

　　Fight fire with ice

　　The worst thing you can do with an angry or irrational person is engage him or her. In the heat of aggression, any word or action interpreted as aggressive in response will only trigger more aggression – and most of the item, if someone is upset and railing about it, every word and action will be read as aggression. As hard as it might seem to do, the best thing is to sit quietly and let them spend themselves ranting and raving, and then ask if they’d like to schedule a time to discuss the matter more calmly and return to whatever you were doing. If this sets off another round of yelling, simply wait it out and repeat。
