     There are many idioms in English that are about animals. Today let's chat a little about some of the idioms
about dogs that make English language fun and colorful. We love dogs; they are our best friends. When you
first started to learn English, your teacher might teach you a number of phrases about dogs, such as: "you are
a lucky dog," "I'm dog tired," "every dog has its day," or "our team was the underdog but won the first place
at last."
     When I first got into high school, my English teacher used the idiom "dog-ear", which interested me very
much. This word can be used as a noun, a verb, and an adjective as well. As a noun, it means a turned-down
(折叠的) corner of a page as a bookmark. As a verb, it means someone makes a bookmark by turning down
the corner of a page in the book. And, as an adjective, the word describes an old book with many broken
pages. Examples: John made a dog-ear (noun) of the page he was reading before closing the book. Jane was
reading a book; when the telephone rang, she dog-eared (verb) the page before answering the phone. In the
old room, the children found some dog-eared (adjective) books left there for more than 30 years.
