To Build Castles In The Air
不切实际
Castles are usually enormous structures requiring strong foundations and the use of heavy construction materials such as stone.
城堡通常是一座巨型建筑,需要有坚实的地基,还会使用到沉重的建筑材料,例如石头等 。
If the foundations are not strong enough, the castle could collapse.
如果城堡的地基不够牢固,很可能会坍塌 。
The idea of building a castle in the air-with no foundation at all-is, of course, ridiculous.
在空中建一座城堡是没有地基的 。因此,“空中楼阁”当然是一个很荒谬的主意 。
That is why this idiom is used to describe ideas that are not realistic, as if they are dreams or fantasies.
因此,我们可以使用这个成语形容那些不切实际的想法——只不过是梦想或幻想 。
