【题目】We all know what a brain is.Adoctor will tell you that the brain is the organ of the body in the head.Itcontrols our body's functions, movements, emotions and thoughts.But abrain can mean so much more.
A brain can also simply be a smartperson, If a person is called brainy,she is smart and intelligent.If a family has many children but one ofthem is super smart, you could say, "She's the brains in the family."And if you are the brains behind something you are responsible for developingor organizing something.For example, Bill Gates is the
brains behind Microsoft
Brain trust is a group of experts whogive advice.Wordexperts say the phrase
"brain trust" became popularwhen Franklin D.Rooseveltfirst ran for president in
1932, Several professors gave him advice on social and political issues facingthe U.S.
These professors were called his "braintrust."
These ways we use the word"brain" all make sense.But other ways we use the
word are not so easy to understand.Forexample, to understand the next brain
expression, you first need to know theword “drain."As a verb to drain means to,
remove something by letting it flow away.So abrain drain may sound like a disease
where the brain flows out the ears.But,brain drain is when a country's most educated people leave their countries to live in another.Thebrains are, sort of, draining out of the country.
However, if people are responsible for agreat idea, you could say they brainstormed it.Here, brainstorm is not an act ofweather.Itis a process of thinking creatively about a complex topic.Forexample, business leaders may use brainstorming to create new
products, and government leaders maybrainstorm to solve problems.
If people are brainwashed, it does notmean their brains are nice and clean.To brainwash means to make someoneaccept new beliefs by using repeated pressure in a forceful or tricky way.Keep inmind that brainwash is never used in a positive way.

Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants.
Sometimes, the word “green” means young, fresh and growing. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience. In the 15th century, a greenhorn was a young cow or an ox whose horns(角)had not yet developed. A century later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had no experience in war. By the 18th century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new in a job.
Someone who is good at growing plants is said to have a green thumb(大拇指). The expression comes from the early 20th century. A person with a green thumb can make plants grow quickly and well.
Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling , jealousy(嫉妒). The green-eyed monster (怪物)is not a dangerous animal from outer space. It is an expression used about 400 years ago by the British writer William Shakespeare in his play “Othello”. It describes the unpleasant feeling when someone has something he wants. For example, a young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if you get a pay rise and he does not.
In most places in the world, a green light means to move ahead. In everyday speech, a green light means agree to continue with a project.

There are many useful suggestions that can help one to improve English. Here are some of them to increase one's English language vocabulary.
Learning English vocabulary is about much more than just learning the right words. It is based on understanding important words and expressions.
Learning a word will not help very much if you quickly forget it. Researches show that it takes from 10 to 20 repetitions(重复) to really make a word part of your vocabulary. Since most words are learned from how they are used in context (上下文), the more words one is shown, the better vocabulary one will have. Keep a piece of paper close to you. When you read, pay close attention to the word you do not know, write the word down and try to understand its meaning from the context. Then look up the word in a dictionary.
Remember that if you do not use English words that you have just learned in conversation or writing, you will forget them very quickly. So the best way to learn new words effectively is just by trying to use them in conversation and writing. Remember also that practice is the key to fluent spoken English.
Building vocabulary is a life-long task. Remember: "In the beginning was the word." Your future could depend on how rich your vocabulary is. It will also determine the quality of your communication.
