在漫漫人生道路上，我们免不了要栽跟头。摔倒并不可怕，重要的是要学会重新站起来。
栽跟头，本意是摔跤，跌跤（tumble; fall），常用来比喻经历失败或遭受挫折（ suffer a setback）。与英文惯用语come a cropper意思相近，表示suffer a sudden and embarrassing failure或accidentally fall and hurt oneself。
例句：
不老实的人到头来总是要栽跟头的。Dishonest people are bound to come a cropper in the end.
投资是一项风险事业，就是那些懂行的人有时也会栽跟头。
Investment is a hazardous business; even those who are in the swim sometimes come a cropper.
这双鞋太大了，导致我走在街上时栽了个跟头。
These shoes are too big and caused me to come a cropper as I was walking down the street.
