If you rub some soap on that drawer, it might stop sticking.

B: Well, maybe. But if I took out the paper that’s fallen down in back, that will help for sure.

整句话什么意思啊，看不顺！

A: Can you come over for dinner tonight?

B: I’m up to my ears in work, so I’ll have to take a rain check.

take a rain check又是什么意思啊，请求各位大虾指点！

第一句話講有關抽屜卡住的問題, A說"如果你往抽屜里塗抹些肥皂(應該指抽屜軌道吧),可能就不會卡住了"B說"也許吧, 但如果取出落在後面的紙張,那肯定會有幫助(即他認為是紙卡住了抽屜)"

A: Can you come over for dinner tonight?

B: I’m up to my ears in work, so I’ll have to take a rain check.

B的意思是說他非常忙(工作都溢到耳朵了), 必須改天了.

rain check: 來源與比賽因下雨中斷,購買了球票的人可以得到一張票根,下次免費入場, 也指(因為貨物買光)商家給顧客的可用當日價格以後在購買的卡片,所以現在常引申為"改日,延期或未雨籌謀等\"
