An ace in the hole is any argument, plan or t
26、hinking kept hidden until needed, especially when it can turn failure into success.In poker and most card games, the ace is the highest and most valuable card. It is often a winning card. In one kind of poker game, the first card to each player is dealt face down. A player does not show-this card to
27、 the other players. The other cards are dealt face up with the players betting money each time they receive another card. No one knows until the end of the game whose hidden card is the winner.

31、 “poker face“ usually is good at “bluffing“. Bluffing is trying to trick a person into believing something about you that is not true. In poker, you bluff when you bet heavily on a poor hand. The idea is to make the other players believe you have strong cards and are sure to win. If they believe you
32、, they are likely to drop out of the game, leaving to you the money they have bet.You can do a better job of bluffing if you “hold your cards close to your vest“. You hold your cards close to you so no one else can see what you have. In everyday speech, holding your cards close to your vest means no

37、 general, not simply films made in Los Angeles. we think of films aimed at amusing audiences and making money for producers.During the early years of the new century, as workers won their demands for higher wages and a shorter working week, leisure assumed an increasingly important role in, everyday
38、 life.

39、 source of amusement. For mere five or ten cents, even the poorest worker could afford to take himself and his family to the local nickelodeon or storefront theatre.

43、uced by studios and independent companies, a significant number were made by what we might call today “UBspecial interest groups/U/B“.
