“因噎廢食”，漢語(yǔ)成語(yǔ)，字面意思是因?yàn)槌詵|西噎住，索性就什么也不吃了（give up eating for fear of choking）。比喻由于出了點(diǎn)小毛病或怕出問(wèn)題就把應(yīng)該做的事情停下來(lái)不干了。可以翻譯為“refrain from doing something for fear of a possible risk”。與英文俚語(yǔ)“throw the baby out with the bath water”意思相近，表示“to discard something valuable along with something not desired, usually unintentionally”。
例句：
不能因?yàn)橐粋€(gè)航空公司出問(wèn)題就關(guān)閉機(jī)場(chǎng)，這樣做就是因噎廢食。You can’t close the airport because one airline has problems–that’s just throwing out the baby with the bath water.
