与身体部位有关的英语习语
与身体部位有关的英语习语1. HeadThe head is thought to be the most important part of the human body. So a leader is often compared to a head (首脑). Thus we have Head of State or the head of a delegation.The head is where the brain is located. It is naturally associated with ideas and intelligence. Very often, we need other people's ideas and opinions when we want to do something well. The is because two heads are better than one (三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮).2. EyeThe eyes are extremely precious to us. That is why we say" Mind your eye (当心)! when we reminding someone to be careful.Not only human beings and animals have eyes, many things also have" eyes"- the eyes ofa ship, the eye of a needle, the eye of a typhoon, and so on.3. EarThe ear is the organ of hearing. A piece of light music is easy on the ear. (悦耳动听). We are usually all ears (专心聆听) for bit news.When they think somebody is overhearing, English people use either of the two proverbs: Walls have ears (隔墙有耳) and Pitchers have ears (壶罐有耳). They also think that little pitchers have big ears（小孩子耳朵尖）. Nice boys and girls respect other people. They will not secretly listen to others' private conversations.4. NoseThe English phrase "face to face (面对面)" and its Chinese counterpart（对应）are exactly the same. But English people, to express the same idea, can say nose to nose instead. There is no such substitute in Chinese.The word nose appears in many idioms. Here are two which are quite similar to their Chinese equivalents: lead somebody by the nose (牵着某人的鼻子走) and turn up one's nose at somebody or something (对某人或某物嗤之一鼻）.English people can say as plain as the nose in one's face (一清二楚) to mean "very obvious". May be to them, the nose is the most conspicuous part of the face.5. LipWe have two lips: the upper lip and the lower lip. If one's two lips are closed, one cannot speak. So it goes without saying that "don't open your lips (不要开口)" means " don't speak".His lips are sealed. Are his lips really stuck together by wax or glue? No, his lips are sealed when asked about something that he must keep secret. Sometimes a top secret is betrayed because it has escaped someone's lips (脱口而出). Then the incident may become a piece of news that is on everybody's lips (众口相传).6. TongueWe all know we cannot speak without the tongue. So the tongue is closely related to speech. To hold one's tongue (保持沉默) means "to keep silent". A person who has too much tongue (太多嘴) is disliked by all, for he is too talkative. Mother tongue is not the tongue of a mother: it is a person's native language."Don't you have a moth below your nose (你鼻子底下不是有张嘴吗)?" The Chinese say so to blame a person who did not say what he should have said. But this not the right way to express the idea in English. English people would say, "You have a tongue in your head, haven't you?"7. FaceFace has to do with the idea of respect and dignity both in Chinese and English. You lose your face (丢面子) if you fail again and again, but a decisive victory will save your face (挽回面子) after all your failures.When you feel unhappy, you pull a long face (拉长脸). The idea is conveyed in Chinese in the same way. But "about face (向后转)" does not refer to the face. It is a military order to turn round and face in the opposite direction. It is the exact equivalent of " about turn".8. ShoulderThe shoulders can bear heavy things. Your father has a great responsibility for the family on his shoulder. When faced with difficulty, the family should stand shoulder to shoulder (肩并肩) to overcome it. You should not turn a cold shoulder (不理睬) to your family members. Nor should you give your friends the cold shoulder (冷落朋友). Both expressions mean treating others coldly.9. BackA good host is hospitable to his guests. But, if guest is tiresome, the host is glad to see his back (他离开).If your friend has done something really well, you may give him a pat on the back (轻轻拍背部) to show your appreciation.If you turn your back on somebody (不理睬他人), you mean you do not like making friends with that person.10. HeartThe heart is an extremely important organ inside the chest. It usually stands for something important or the centre of something, for example, the heart of the matter (问题的核心) or the heart of mystery.Many other expressions make use of the word heart. A lover can be called a sweet heart (情人). The Purple Heart (紫心徽章) is a medal given as an honor to American soldiers wounded in battle.If your friend is in trouble, you may encourage him by saying "Don't lose heart (不要灰心)."11. StomachThe stomach is naturally related to one's appetite. If you dislike heavy food, you have no stomach for it (反胃). The word is also related to one's interests or likings. If you find something boring or vulgar, you have no stomach for it, either. Bad food turns your stomach. Similarly, your stomach turns at a bad joke.Stomach can also be a verb. Look at this example: "How could you stomach (忍受) such rude words?" Apparently, stomach here can be replaced by "tolerate".12. ArmEvery person has two arms: the right arm and the left arm. The right arm is usually stronger, so we call a good helper the right arm (得力助手).We all know an arm is not very long. But when you keep someone at arm's length (保持距离), the distance is long enough. For that means you don not like that person and you try your best to avoid him or her. We should indeed keep the bad friends at arm's length.13. HandQuite a number of phrases formed form the word hand are very similar to their Chinese counterparts. Here are some obvious examples: a fresh hand (新手), short of hands (人手短缺),hand in hand (手拉手) and wash one's hands of something (洗手不干了). But do not always take this for granted. Study these examples and you will understand.He lives from hand to mouth (He has just enough money to live on). We gave them a big hand (We gave them lots of applause).14. FingerHow many fingers does each of your hands have? Now let's name them in English from the smallest: the little finger, the ring finger, the middle finger, the index finger and thumb.Each finger has its own part to play. If your fingers are all thumbs (笨拙), that is too bad. That means you are very clumsy.15. ThumbChinese people turn up their thumbs to express appreciation. English people do so to express not only appreciation but also approval. Chinese people never turn their thumbs down to mean anything. But English people do. They do so to show depreciation disapproval. Thus in English you can say, "We turn thumbs up (赞成) to Jack's suggestion but they turn thumbs down (不赞成) to it."Similarly, you can warmly praise someone by saying "Thumbs up (真棒)!" and show your dissatisfaction by saying "Thumbs down (差劲)!"16. SkinMost people will only think of the hair on our head when the word hair is mentioned. In fact, some animals and plants also have hair.A horrible scene may make a person's hair stand on end (毛骨悚然). But a courageous person will not turn a hair (不畏惧) even though he is in face of danger.Sometimes, a friend of yours may be so angry that he may act foolishly. Then you had better give him this advice: "Keep your hair on (别发脾气)".Selected from the book The Human Body by Huang Juanhua。

Thus we have Head of State or the head of a delegation.The head is where the brain is located. It is naturallyassociated with ideas and intelligence. Very often, we need other people's ideas and opinions when we want to do something well. The is because two heads are better than one (三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮).2. EyeThe eyes are extremely precious to us. That is why we say" Mind your eye (当心)! when we reminding someone to be careful.Not only human beings and animals have eyes, many things also have" eyes"- the eyes of a ship, the eye of a needle, the eye of a typhoon, and so on.3. EarThe ear is the organ of hearing. A piece of light music is easy on the ear. (悦耳动听). We are usually all ears (专心聆听) for bit news.When they think somebody is overhearing, English people use either of the two proverbs: Walls have ears (隔墙有耳) and Pitchers have ears (壶罐有耳). They also think that little pitchers have big ears（小孩子耳朵尖）. Nice boys and girls respect other people. They will not secretly listen to others' private conversations.4. NoseThe English phrase "face to face (面对面)" and its Chinese counterpart （对应）are exactly the same. But English people, to express the same idea, can say nose to nose instead. There is no such substitute in Chinese.The word nose appears in many idioms. Here are two which are quite similar to their Chinese equivalents: lead somebody by the nose (牵着某人的鼻子走) and turn up one's nose at somebody or something (对某人或某物嗤之一鼻）.English people can say as plain as the nose in one's face (一清二楚) to mean "very obvious". May be to them, the nose is the most conspicuous part of the face.5. LipWe have two lips: the upper lip and the lower lip. If one's two lips are closed, one cannot speak. So it goes without saying that "don't open your lips (不要开口)" means " don't speak".His lips are sealed. Are his lips really stuck together by wax or glue? No, his lips are sealed when asked about something that he must keep secret. Sometimes a top secret is betrayed because it has escaped someone's lips (脱口而出). Then the incident may become a piece of news that is on everybody's lips (众口相传).6. TongueWe all know we cannot speak without the tongue. So the tongue is closely related to speech. To hold one's tongue (保持沉默) means "to keep silent". A person who has too much tongue (太多嘴) is disliked by all, for he is too talkative. Mother tongue is not the tongue of a mother: it is a person's native language."Don't you have a moth below your nose (你鼻子底下不是有张嘴吗)?" The Chinese say so to blame a person who did not say what he should have said. But this not the right way to express the idea in English. English people would say, "You have a tongue in your head, haven't you?"7. FaceFace has to do with the idea of respect and dignity both in Chinese and English. You lose your face (丢面子) if you fail again and again, but a decisive victory will save your face (挽回面子) after all your failures.When you feel unhappy, you pull a long face (拉长脸). The idea is conveyed in Chinese in the same way. But "about face (向后转)" does not refer to the face. It is a military order to turnround and face in the opposite direction. It is the exact equivalent of " about turn".8. ShoulderThe shoulders can bear heavy things. Your father has a great responsibility for the family on his shoulder. When faced with difficulty, the family should stand shoulder to shoulder (肩并肩) to overcome it. You should not turn a cold shoulder (不理睬) to your family members. Nor should you give your friends the cold shoulder (冷落朋友). Both expressions mean treating others coldly.9. BackA good host is hospitable to his guests. But, if guest is tiresome, the host is glad to see his back (他离开).If your friend has done something really well, you may give him a pat on the back (轻轻拍背部) to show your appreciation.If you turn your back on somebody (不理睬他人), you mean you do not like making friends with that person.10. HeartThe heart is an extremely important organ inside the chest. It usually stands for something important or the centre of something, for example, the heart of the matter (问题的核心) or the heart of mystery.Many other expressions make use of the word heart. A lover can be called a sweet heart (情人). The Purple Heart (紫心徽章) is a medal given as an honor to American soldiers wounded in battle.If your friend is in trouble, you may encourage him by saying "Don't lose heart (不要灰心)."11. StomachThe stomach is naturally related to one's appetite. If you dislike heavy food, you have no stomach for it (反胃). The word isalso related to one's interests or likings. If you find something boring or vulgar, you have no stomach for it, either. Bad food turns your stomach. Similarly, your stomach turns at a bad joke.Stomach can also be a verb. Look at this example: "How could you stomach (忍受) such rude words?" Apparently, stomach here can be replaced by "tolerate".12. ArmEvery person has two arms: the right arm and the left arm. The right arm is usually stronger, so we call a good helper the right arm (得力助手).We all know an arm is not very long. But when you keep someone at arm's length (保持距离), the distance is long enough. For that means you don not like that person and you try your best to avoid him or her. We should indeed keep the bad friends at arm's length.13. HandQuite a number of phrases formed form the word hand are very similar to their Chinese counterparts. Here are some obvious examples: a fresh hand (新手), short of hands (人手短缺), hand in hand (手拉手) and wash one's hands of something (洗手不干了). But do not always take this for granted. Study these examples and you will understand.He lives from hand to mouth (He has just enough money to live on). We gave them a big hand (We gave them lots of applause).14. FingerHow many fingers does each of your hands have? Now let's name them in English from the smallest: the little finger, the ring finger, the middle finger, the index finger and thumb.Each finger has its own part to play. If your fingers are allthumbs (笨拙), that is too bad. That means you are very clumsy.15. ThumbChinese people turn up their thumbs to express appreciation. English people do so to express not only appreciation but also approval. Chinese people never turn their thumbs down to mean anything. But English people do. They do so to show depreciation disapproval. Thus in English you can say, "We turn thumbs up (赞成) to Jack's suggestion but they turn thumbs down (不赞成) to it."Similarly, you can warmly praise someone by saying "Thumbs up (真棒)!" and show your dissatisfaction by saying "Thumbs down (差劲)!"16. SkinMost people will only think of the hair on our head when the word hair is mentioned. In fact, some animals and plants also have hair.A horrible scene may make a person's hair stand on end (毛骨悚然). But a courageous person will not turn a hair (不畏惧) even though he is in face of danger.Sometimes, a friend of yours may be so angry that he may act foolishly. Then you had better give him this advice: "Keep your hair on (别发脾气)". Selected from the book The Human Body by Huang Juanhuaear-to-ear: from one ear to the otherWhen i walked in, my mother was smiling from ear-to ear.( had an enormous smile on her face)hand in hand: to walk while hoding hands with someone.They must be very good friends. they're walking hand-in-hand.neck-and-neck(to be): to be even in a race.The two runners are neck-to-neck. Iwonder who will be the win趣味英语：和身体部位有关的英语常用成语1. Turn left at the next corner and then follow your nose, you can't miss it.到前面的路口向左转,然后一直走就到了,你不会看不到的.to follow one's nose 在这个句子里的意思就是"一直走".to follow one's nose 还可以解释为利用嗅觉找到某物.例如:You say you are looking for the French Bakery? Just walk two blocks north, and you can smell that wonderful smell of fresh bread baking: just follow your nose and it will bring you right to the front door.你是说你在找那个法国面包店吗?往北走过两条街,你就会闻到烤面包的香味.随着香味走就会把你带到那个面包店的门口了.to follow one's nose 在这个句子里着重的是嗅觉,而不是方向.2. How many times have I told you to get to work on time? But my words just go in one ear and out the other. So I don't have any choice but to fire you.我告诉你多少次了上班要准时?可是,你对我的话总是一只耳朵进一只耳朵出.现在,我没有办法了,只好解雇你了.汉语里经常说那些不听劝告的人对别人的话总是"一只耳朵进一只耳朵出",或者说:"左耳朵进,右耳朵出."英语里也有这样的说法, 即:"It goes in one ear and out the other".3. If you shoot your mouth off like that one more time, I won't tell you anything in the future.要是你再这么胡说八道,以后我什么也不告诉你了.to shoot one's mouth off 是指一个人在某种场合滔滔不绝地说一些不合时宜的话,或者说一些不该讲的话.4.
