英语翻译
Her mother missed a beat.
上下文是:One weekend the girl came to tell her mother that she was going to the cinema with her schoolmate and would return late.This was the first time her mother agreed,and she couldn't help worrying because her daughter had never been away at night before.The mother waited till nine and her uneasiness不安 got the upper hand 优势over her.She decided to go out to meet her daughter.Just at that moment the noise of a car pulling up drew her to the window and – there was her daughter,waving goodbye to a boy.Her mother missed a beat.When the girl came in,the mother was watching TV,pretending nothing had happened."Mum,I am back." "Yeah." "Sorry to be late.Still sitting up?” “Yes.Oh,that… who's that boy?" “Ah.It's my monitor.He gave me a lift on his way home.Mum,I'm going to bed." "All right.Go to sleep early.”

补:文中的意思是说她的妈妈吓了一大跳.
给你参考,你联系一下原文的语境:
miss a beat
字面翻译:未跟上节拍
引申翻译:(在做事情上)差强人意,不相协调
beat:n.节拍
miss a beat 如果是用在音乐方面,就是指未踩上节奏,节拍不对.
如果是工作或生活,就更象中文平时说的:慢半拍,赶不上趟.
don’t miss a beat
never miss a beat
翻译:节奏准确/平稳,毫不乱套
e.g.
1)He always misses a beat when he works with others.
当他与他人工作时总是 赶不上趟/差强人意.
2)Reserves don't miss a beat in spelling foul-plagued starters.
板凳队员在开局队员被犯规困扰时毫不乱套.
