站好来!
Stand up straight!
Stand tall.
Stand still.
"Stand up straight"(站直)相比,"Stand still" 更侧重于不移动,而不是保持正确的姿势。意思是让对方站在原地,保持静止。例如,如果你在拍照或者在需要保持安静的场合时,可能会说:"Stand still!" (站住,不动!)。依据你想表达的意思,可以选择不同的短语。但是如果说“Stand well”这种直译,就不自然了。

别玩手机了!
No more phone!
No more phone for now.
Enough with the phone.
Put the phone away.
Put your phone down!
Stop playing with your phone!
如果翻译成“Don't play your phone"(x), 就是语法不正确了。“play” 通常不直接用于“手机”这种物体,而是用“play with”来表示“玩”某物。例如,“play with a toy”(玩玩具),“play with a ball”(玩球)。所以,如果要说“别玩手机了”,应该使用 "play with your phone" 的结构,而不是 "play your phone"(X)

不要揉眼睛!
Don't rub your eyes.
Stop rubbing your eyes!

还有几站到?
How many stops are left?
How many stops left? (口语化的,省略了“are”)
How many more stops until we get there?
How much longer until we arrive?

我哄你睡觉吧!
Let me put you to bed.
Let's tuck you in.
Let me tuck you in.
I'll help you get to sleep.
这些表达都适合用在哄别人(特别是小孩或亲密的人)入睡的场合。
"Put you to bed" 是比较常见的表达,意味着帮助某人准备睡觉。
"Tuck you in" 通常指的是把被子整理好并让人舒适地入睡,是一种亲切的说法。
"Help you get to sleep" 更通用一些,可以用于任何年龄的人,表示帮助某人入睡。
