如果你没有诸葛亮的气定神闲，就赶快去着手解决问题吧！千万不敢“to fiddle while Rome burns”（事情都火烧眉头了，还抓些无关痛痒的细枝末节）。

“To fiddle while Rome burns”最早可追溯到古罗马时代。那时罗马暴君尼罗曾经纵火焚城，并且一边观火一边拉小提琴，所以这个片语后常用来形容某些官员不体恤百姓疾苦、对大事（棘手事）漠不关心，看例句：

The local government fiddled while Rome burned, doing nothing about crime, poverty and pollution. (地方政府不解决犯罪、贫困和污染这等大事，却在无关痛痒的细节上瞎忙。)

日常生活中，你也可用“to fiddle while Rome burns”来形容伙伴对火烧眉头的大事置之不理，却在小节上费时费工，再看个例句：

The account was falling through, but he was more worried about missing his golf game--talk about fiddling while Rome burns! （他真是不分轻重！眼看要破产了，他还在瞎谈着为输高尔夫球而难过。）.
