cant hold a candle to
Candle是蜡烛,所以 hold a candle就是手持蜡烛.
习惯用语can't hold a candle to somebody 来自几百年前还没电灯,用蜡烛照明的年代.当时人们如果必须在黑夜步行前往某地就会在街上雇佣个小伙子为自己拿蜡烛在前面照明引路.而剧场的舞台四周也有人手持蜡烛照明.这样人们才看得见台上演员的表演.
为人 hold candle 的就是手持蜡烛为他人照明的工作的人,hold a candle 因而被看作是不用脑筋而低人一等的差事.
如果 hold a candle 是低层工作,那么 can't hold a candle to somebody 的人就比不上 hold candle 的人了.
所以can't hold a candle to somebody 意思是比某人差多了.
例句
Mary can't hold a candle to Ann when it comes to athletics.
