blowing the whistle

基本解释

Andrea Camilleri from Italy: "I am blowing the whistle at myself, at you, at all of us who silently accept this appalling tragedy."
意大利的安德烈亞·卡米雷利：“我對自己、對你、對所有默默接受這一可怕災難的人吹曏警示的哨聲。”
"In other words, referees are more speedy in blowing the whistle for the end of the game if the home team scores, thus giving the visitors less time to respond".
“換句話說，裁判更急於在主隊進球後，吹響比賽結束的哨子，這樣就給客隊更少的時間作出反擊”。
Maybe she’d steal the ball. Maybe the other player would throw it away in a panic—or get bottled up and stalled, so that the ref would end up blowing the whistle.
她還會嘗試搶球，而對方在情急之下或者將球傳丟，或者陷入圍睏，止步不前，而後裁判就判超時。
