A group of students from the US have been in China for a week. Here is part of their chat history (聊天记录) on WeChat.

20:45

Hi, everybody! Anything to share today?

20:49

Yes. I went to a restaurant to have dinner with some friends this evening.

When we finished the meal, the waiter brought us the bill. It was 270 yuan.

We gave him 300 yuan and left 30 as a tip(小费) for his service(职务).

To our surprise, he returned us the change!

Really? How kind he is!

20:53

@Sunny It’s different form that of the US. I worked in a restaurant in my free time. I accepted tips. Well, something interesting happened to me this morning…

20:55

I couldn’t find the bus stop. I came up to a man who was walking near me and

showed him the bus number. He nodded and asked me to follow. We walked for

about 10 minutes and finally got to the bus stop. I wanted to give him a hug (拥抱)

to show thanks, but he just said goodbye and walked away. I couldn’t believe that he

had taken so much trouble for a stranger(陌生人)!

It seems that Chinese people don’t usually hug.

I guess so. It’s really unforgettable!

21:02

I agree. The Chinese people I have met these days are all so friendly, polite

And helpful. Well will enjoy the rest of our trip for sure.

Idioms are one of the hardest parts of learning a language. An idiom is a phrase which has a meaning, but the meaning is not clear from the words themselves. They are like puzzles. If you translate an idiom word for word, it sometimes makes no sense at all. That’s why even native speakers can get confused when someone uses a phrase that they’ve never heard of.

Here are four common English idioms every English student should know in a lot of situations.

1.Get your act together (Meaning: you need to improve your behaviour/work)

This might be something your teacher says to you if you score badly in an exam or if you misbehave in class. You can also use it to talk about people in general. For example, if your friend is being mean for no reason, then you can tell them that they need to get their act together.

2.Pull yourself together (Meaning: calm down)

It’s not polite to say “pull yourself together”to tell people to relax while they’re overreacting (反应过激). Only use this if you think the person you are speaking to is getting upset over something important. When your friend tells you that their close relative has died, it is NOT the time to tell them to pull themselves together.

3.I’m feeling under the weather (Meaning: I’m sick)

Yes, it’s longer and more difficult to say than “I’m sick”, but if your English teacher asks you why you haven’t done your homework, he or she is more likely to forgive (原谅) you if you say that you were feeling under the weather.

4.Break a leg (Meaning: good luck!)

This is perhaps one of the most confusing yet well-known English idioms. If someone says this to you, do not think they are frightening you; they are just wishing you luck. It is most often used for people wishing success to actors and actresses before they perform on the stage, but it can be said in other situations, too.

All in all, learning a new language can be challenging. It’s certainly not a piece of cake, especially when there are so many confusing idioms. However, with enough hard work and interest, you will succeed in no time. Break a leg!

1.What is an idiom?

2.How many common English idioms are talked about in the passage?

3.Is it polite to say“pull yourself together”to tell people to relax while they’re overreacting?

4.Which idiom can you use to wish somebody luck?

5.What is the passage mainly about?

1.An idiom is a phrase which has a meaning, but the meaning is not clear from the words themselves. 1’档:①Idioms are one of the hardest parts of learning a language. ②They are like puzzles. If...
