A: Excuse me. Can you tell me the way to the bank near here?

B: It's easy. Go {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Bridge Street and turn {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Then walk along {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Street until you see the post office. And turn {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    An idiom is a phrase that we can't understand from the m{#blank#}1{#/blank#} of each word. For example, if an American boy asks his mom what's for dinner tomorrow, she may say “I'll play it by ear”, that means she doesn't have plans for dinner and she will d{#blank#}2{#/blank#} later.

    “Play it by ear” used to mean playing music w{#blank#}3{#/blank#} using the sheet music (乐谱), but now people often use it when they're not talking about music!

    There are many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be much more vivid (生动的) and colorful.

    Have you ever heard the idiom “He bought the farm”? It means he died. Do you know how it became p{#blank#}4{#/blank#}? It was first used in World War I. When a soldier died, the government gave his family enough money to buy a farm.

    In the early 1930s, people in the US often didn't know when or where their next meal was. So once they got something in their hand that could be e{#blank#}5{#/blank#}, it would go into their mouth. That was how people began to use the idiom “living hand to mouth” to mean “living a p{#blank#}6{#/blank#} life”.

    And don't be a{#blank#}7{#/blank#} if your English friend says this to you, “Break a leg in your game!” He is wishing you good luck! Hundreds of years ago, people believed in sprites (小妖精). Sprites enjoyed causing t{#blank#}8{#/blank#}. If the sprites heard you ask for something, they would make the o{#blank#}9{#/blank#} happen. Tell someone to “break a leg” and the sprites would make something good happen.

    Aren't English idioms interesting? And break a leg in your next football m{#blank#}10{#/blank#}!

    When Helen was in the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} grade, she joined the city {#blank#}2{#/blank#} competition.

She went up and started to dance. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} she was dancing, everyone sat quietly and watched carefully. She danced {#blank#}6{#/blank#} making any mistakes.

    One day, Pierre, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} worked in a government office, received an {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (invite) to a palace ball. His wife, Mathilde, had no money {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (buy) jewellery, so she borrowed a {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (beauty) necklace(项链) from {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (she) friend, Jeanne.

From this story, we know a person shouldn't be affected by vanity(虚荣心), {#blank#}10{#/blank#} it will cost him a lot.

    Trees are useful to man in three very important ways. The first important way is that they provide man {#blank#}1{#/blank#} food, wood and other products(产品). Trees provide man and animals with food to live {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the earth. It's not easy {#blank#}3{#/blank#} man to live on the earth without trees.

    The {#blank#}4{#/blank#} important way is that trees give us shade(树荫). On a hot summer day, people can have {#blank#}5{#/blank#}rest under the shade of a tree after they have walked a long way. You can imagine（想象） {#blank#}6{#/blank#} important the shade of a tree is to man and animals.

    The third important {#blank#}7{#/blank#} is that trees help to prevent droughts（干旱）and floods. However, in many parts of the world, man has {#blank#}8{#/blank#} realized the third important way. He has cut {#blank#}9{#/blank#}trees in large numbers.{#blank#}10{#/blank#} the end, he finds that he has lost his best friends.
