俚语含义：a weak or vulnerable factor唯一致命的弱点

例：Ah beer!My Achilles ' heel!

[用法来源]

Achilles,the hero of Homer's Iliad,the son of Peleus and Thetis and slayer of Hector.The legend of Achilles has it that he was dipped into the river Styx by his mother in order to make him invulnerable.His heel wasn't covered by the water and he was later killed by an arrow wound to his heel.

Skit:From "the Simpsons":

Homer :Mmmm...Forbidden donut!

My one weakness ..my Achilles ' heel!!

Note:这里用forbidden来修饰donut,是要表达Homer对甜面包圈那种又爱又怕的感受。Homer太喜欢甜面包圈了，虽然它那么甜，会让他发胖，可是他实在割舍不下。

Bonus:在美国，警察们有个喜欢吃甜面包圈的名声。因此俚语Donut ranger指巡警。

Can you believe it?The donut ranger gave me a ticket for driving too slow!
