3 blind as a bat
((as) blind as a bat (реже as a beetle, as a mole, уст. as a brickbat))1) подслеповатый; ≈ слепая курица (тж. as blind as an owl)Look at Mrs. Penterland, smiling at nothing. The point is, of course, she's obviously as blind as a bat and won't wear specs. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Three Men in New Suits’, ch. 5) — Лучше посмотрите на миссис Пентерленд, которая улыбается неизвестно чему. Секрет в том, что она слепа как крот, а носить очки не хочет.
2) слепой, не замечающий, не видящий, не понимающий происходящего вокруг‘You're being too independent,’ Quartermain complained. ‘And you're as blind as a bat if you can't see that I'm a close friend of the Minister's.’ (J. Aldridge, ‘The Last Exile’, ch. XXIII) — - Много на себя берешь, - с упреком сказал Куортермейн. - Ты что, ослеп? Не видишь, я близкий друг министра?
If anyone thinks that Britain's economy is sound, he must be as blind as a bat and twice as stupid. (‘Tribune’) — Если кто-либо верит в прочность английской экономики, то он слеп, как летучая мышь, и в два раза глупее ее.
