One way to improve your English is to learn English idioms（习语） and then use them.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. They make you sound more like a native speaker. Like other languages, English has thousands of idioms which you can use in many different situations, or to talk about your feelings and opinions. So how do you learn them?
Learn idioms in the context（上下文）
Don't learn idioms by making lists. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Make sure you have an example of how the idiom is used, and know clearly whether it's common. This is important, because if you use the idiom in the wrong situation, it won't sound natural.
Don't try to learn too many at one time
{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. For that reason, don't try to learn more than five at any one time. Don't forget: You'll need to practise your new idioms(like any new vocabulary), so limit（限制）what you do in any lesson.
Understand the feeling
We often use an idiom to express a feeling or emotion. So for example, we say that someone has a heart of gold. Because gold is a valuable metal, we can imagine that someone with a heart of gold is a good person. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.
Listen out for idioms
If you hear two words used together in an unusual way, it might be a new idiom. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. However, usually you might need to make a note of it or ask the person who has spoken it.
A. Idioms can be difficult B. Instead, learn their meanings in the context C. In fact, it does mean that a person is very kind D. Idioms can add interest to what you say or write E. Sometimes you can guess its meaning in the context |
