Many of the expressions using water haven't enjoyable meanings in English.
“Hot water” was used five hundred years ago to mean being in trouble. One story says it got the meaning from throwing hot water down on enemies（敌人）attacking a town. That happens no longer, but we still get into hot water.
When we are in hot water, we are in trouble. It can be any kind of trouble, serious or not so serious. A person who breaks a rule can be in hot water with the police. A young boy can be in hot water with his mother if he walks in a house with dirty shoes.
“Water over the dam（水坝）” is another expression about a past event. It's something that finishes and it cannot be changed. The expression comes from the idea--water has run over a dam and it cannot be brought back again. When a friends is troubled by a mistake he has made, you might tell him to forget about it. You can say “It's water over the dam.”
“Throwing cold water” means “not to like an idea”. For example, you want to buy a new car because the old one has some problems, but your parents throw cold water on the idea, because they think a new car costs too much.

I have tried many ways to be ill. I don't wear a sweater when I should, and two days ago I walked in the rain without my shoes on. But so far nothing has happened. Debbie once told me about a boy in her class who liked being away from school. He would rub(摩擦) the end of the thermometer(温度计) until it went up to 39℃. Then he'd put it in his mouth and his mother would think he was really ill.
This morning I was trying doing that but it never went above 35℃ and I rubbed it for ten minutes. So I held the thermometer next to the light on my desk and it went up to 40℃. I thought I'd put it in my mouth and walked downstairs like that. Then my mother would take it out and she would be worried when she saw that I was rather ill.
The only trouble was I didn't know the thermometer would be so hot. As soon as I put it into my mouth it burnt my tongue(舌头)! I spat the thermometer out. It fell on the floor but it didn't break.
I will have to think up a better way to get my mother and father back together.
