    The English language is different from any other language. Yet English words do not stay the same.  We need new words for inventions and new ideas. Different words come into use, or older words are used in a new way.

     Tomato was borrowed from Mexico. The word coffee came from Turkey, and tea came from China. Now new space and science words are being borrowed from other countries, too.

      Strawberry, popcorn, and grandfather are words made up of two parts.

Sometimes new words are shorter forms of older words. The word photo was made from photograph by cutting off the end of the longer word.  Smog was made by swing only the first two letters from the words smoke and fog.

     Our sandwich was named after a man named Sandwich. Scotch Tape, Band-aid, and Jell were names made up by the companies that first made the products.

Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you don't understand the culture behind it.
For example, if an American boy asks his mother 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 decide later. "Play by ear" used to mean playing music using the sheet music, but now people often use it when they're not talking about music.
There're many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be more vivid and colorful. English idioms are more common in spoken English. They can be difficult to remember sometimes. Next time when you hear somebody saying to you, "Give me a hand", you don't necessarily stretch out your hand to him/her, but you do need to be helpful. And when the situation is out of hand, you usually can do very little to manage all that. What about a green hand? It's not about the color of your hand! You're a green hand when you are very new at your work and don't have much experience. If you and your partner always work together hand in glove, you two definitely work together very well.
Can you guess the meanings of some common English idioms to do with parts of your body?

    Robert and Henry were going home from school, when Robert shouted on a corner, “A fight! Let's go and see!”

    “No,” said Henry, “Let's go quietly home and not join in this fight. We have nothing to do with it, and may get into trouble.”

    “You are a coward(懦夫), and afraid to go,” said Robert, and he ran off. Henry went straight home, and in the afternoon went to school, as usual.

    But Robert had told all the kids that Henry was a coward, and they laughed at him. However, Henry had learned that true courage is shown most in being prepared to be laughed at in order to do the right thing. 43 He knew that he should not be afraid of anything, except doing wrong. A few days after, Robert was swimming with some schoolmates. He got into water that was too deep for him. He cried for help.

    The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of water as fast as they could. They didn't even try to help Robert. Robert was sinking(下沉) fast when Henry threw off his clothes and jumped into the water. He reached Robert just as he was sinking. 44 With much danger to himself, Henry tried his best to bring Robert to the bank and saved his life.

    Robert and his schoolmates were ashamed(愧疚的) at having called Henry a coward. They agreed that he had more courage than any of them.

    Never be afraid to do good, but always fear to do wrong.

请阅读下面一篇关于家长与孩子之间存在矛盾的短文,根据所提供的信息,完成信息卡。

    Jia Meng used to keep a diary in Chinese. But one year ago, the 14-year-old girl from Heilongjiang began to write her diaries in English, because Jia found her mother was reading her diary secretly. She changed the language because her mother can't read English. "It's like killing two birds with one stone," said Jia. "My privacy(隐私) becomes safe and my English improves a lot."

    Jia's mother is not the only mom who reads her child's diary. Recently, Renmin University of China had a national survey among over 2,300 parents. The results show that about 40% of parents read their children's secrets.

That's why many teenagers try to find ways to protect their privacy.

    Wu Lei, 15, from Shanxi, keeps a diary, too. But he doesn't write it on paper. He writes online, which he thinks is perfectly safe because his parents "know nothing about the Internet".

    Lu Huan, 13, from Guangdong, said her parents always secretly listened to the talk between her friends and her on the telephone in their room. To solve this problem, Lu asked her parents to buy her a cell phone.

    "Parents want to know what is going on in their children's lives," said Shao Xiaozhen, a teenage expert in Beijing. "But sometimes they go about it the wrong way." Shao suggested the teenagers that instead of hiding their secrets, talking with parents is a better solution. "If your parents know that you are safe, they'll let you keep your secrets."
