They dont even make sense when you first see them. However,
2、 using one of these phrases correctly when speaking or writing to an English speaker is very impressive and shows that you are comfortable with the language. Here are some wonderful and interesting British idioms. Use them wisely.When pigs fly!This expression is one of my favorites and I use it all
3、the time. It is used primarily when speaking, meaning that something is extremely unlikely or impossible. For example, “I will forgive him when pigs fly!” “When do you think you will get a gym membership, Lucy?” “When pigs fly!”A penny for your thoughts?This question is used in a situation where som
4、eone appears thoughtful or is very quiet seeming lost in thought. But remember that you dont actually have to pay them a penny if they do tell you what is going on! For example, “Youve been a bit quiet this evening, Pete. A penny for your thoughts?”Its the bees kneesThe phrase dates back to the 1920
5、s, and refers to an extraordinary person, thing, idea, and so on. For example, “Try this chocolate. Its the bees knees.”To feel a bit under the weatherI use this expression in many different situations but most use it to refer to feeling ill, or unwell. You would not use this phrase if you were feel
6、ing extremely unwell. It is only for those times when you are feeling a little ill or suffering from something slightly like a cold or a cough. However, this can also be used to refer to feeling emotionally low.221. What will you say if you think something is special?A. When pigs fly! B. A penny for
7、 your thoughts?C. Its the bees knees D. To feel a bit under the weather.22. Which of the following sentence can replace “A penny for your thoughts?”A. What can I do for you? B.

8、ntroduce some useful idioms. B. To show how to remember idioms.C. To tell people the importance of idioms. D. To arouse the interest in idioms.BPeople diet to look more attractive. Fish diet to avoid being beaten up, thrown out of their social group, and getting eaten as a result. That is the fascin
9、ating conclusion of the latest research into fish behavior by a team of Australian scientists.The research team has discovered that subordinate fish voluntarily diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors. “In studying gobies we noticed that only the largest two individuals, a male and female
10、, had breeding(繁殖) rights within the group, ”explains Marian Wong. “All other group members are non-breeding females, each being 510% smaller than its next largest competitor. We wanted to find out how they maintain this precise size separation.”The reason for the size difference was easy to see. On
11、ce a subordinate fish grows to within 510% of the size of its larger competitor,it causes a fight which usually ends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group. More often than not, the evicted fish is then eaten up.It appeared that the smaller fish were keeping themselves small in order t
12、o avoid challenging the boss fish. Whether they did so voluntarily,by restraining how much they ate, was not clear. The research team decided to do an experiment. They tried to fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see 3what happened. To their surprise,the gobies simply refused the extra food
13、they were offered,clearly preferring to remain small and avoid fights, over having a feast.The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individuals keep their position in a group. Previously it was thought that large individuals simply used their weight and size to threaten t
14、heir subordinates and take more of the food for themselves, so keeping their competitors small.While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious, Dr. Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate animals is important to understanding how hierarchical (等级的) soc
15、ieties remain stable.The research has proved the fact that voluntary dieting is a habit far from exclusive to humans. “As yet, we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in nature,” the researchers comment. “Data on human dieting suggests that, while
16、 humans generally diet to improve health or increase attractiveness, rarely does it improve long term health and males regularly prefer females that are fatter than the females own ideal.”24. When a goby grows to within 510% of the size of its larger competitor, it_.A. faces danger B. has breeding r

18、t willinglyC. preferred some extra food D. challenged the boss fish27. What is the text mainly about?4A. Fish dieting and human dieting. B. Dieting and health.C. Human dieting. D. Fish dieting.CJohn Steinbeck once said, “All American believe they are born fishermen. For a man to admit to a distaste
19、in fishing would be like speaking publicly against mother-love or hating moonlight”.I cant say Im the biggest John Steinbeck fan. Actually, the only thing I can ever remember reading by him was “The Pearl” when I was in middle school, but I couldnt agree more with the man when it comes to fishing. W
20、hen I am on a boat in the middle of the lay Lake, fishing off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon or catching rainbow trout in the Shoshone River of Wyoming. Fishing is my life.According to the American Sports Fishing Association, the fishing industry brings in more than $ 116 billion per year
21、 from fishermen across the country.Though a beautiful picture to imagine, fishing is much more than that. Fishing is a way of life from many people and a way to escape everyday stress. Being a fisherman makes me a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life. Even President B
22、ush can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when the jobs gets too stressful.I can remember fishing with my grandfather when I was 5 years old on his boat at Lake Michel.
