Neil: No, theres no water in the boat. To have a sinking feeling is what you say in English when you realise something bad is happening or about to happen.

　　Li: So a sinking feeling 这个短语的意思是当一个人预感到一种不好的事情即将发生，一种不祥的预感，right?

　　Neil: Yes, thats the idea.

　　Man 1: I bought shares in that company but the stock market has just crashed! I have a sinking feeling that Ive lost all my money!

　　Woman: The meal in this restaurant was very tasty but I have a sinking feeling that Ive forgotten my wallet at home and I dont have money to pay the bill!

　　Man 2: Oh the main player in the team has just got a red card! Ive a sinking feeling that my team is going to lose this match!

　　Li: So, what is this sinking feeling that you have, Neil? If its not the boat, what is it?

　　Neil: Well, while we were admiring the view a few minutes ago I saw a sign over there on the bank of the river that says: Niagara Falls. Ive heard this name somewhere and I dont think it is good but I cant remember why

　　Li: What? Niagara Falls! 尼亚加拉大瀑布! Neil, 你知道吗，那瀑布高达50米呢!

　　Neil: Yes, now I remember! I saw it in a movie! I have a sinking feeling! Grab this life jacket, Li.

　　Li: Thank you, 救生衣，快快，快穿上. Now I have a sinking feeling too!
