名词解释:解困来电就是无聊会议期间接到事先安排好的同事来电，好让你佯装出紧急状况逃离那个会议;或是相亲过程中朋友打来将你从尴尬约会中救出的那通电话。你知道怎么用英语表达吗?

被家人逼着去相亲，为了能尽快脱身，你提前跟好友商量好，让他/她在15分钟后给你打电话，然后你就可以佯装有急事提前离开了。这样的事情有多少人经历过呢?在英语中，这样的电话叫escape call。

Escape call is a planned call or beep from a co-worker that allows you to feign an emergency in order to escape a particularly boring or meaningless meeting, or from a friend that helps you escape from an unsatisfying, even embarrassing blind date.

Escape call就是无聊会议期间接到事先安排好的同事来电，好让你佯装出紧急状况逃离那个会议;或是相亲过程中朋友打来将你从尴尬约会中救出的那通电话，我们统称为“解困来电”。

Reasons for the call can be various, such as a neighbor calling about a leaky pipe; a mother informing that a sister just had a baby; or a boss saying he needs help immediately.

这种解困电话编出的由头很多，可以是假装邻居打来说你家水管漏水了，假装你妈妈来电说你姐姐生小孩了，或是假装老板来电要你立即赶过去帮忙等等。
