提升你格调的10个英语成语
[字面意思]赌一便士是赌，赌一英镑也是赌。
[解释]类似“一不做、二不休”的说法。这是当你要准备参与某个项目，准备投入你的财力，时间或精力的时候可能说的一句话。你买股票时，拿不定主意，是买进100股，还是再多买一点。我劝你：“我看能赚大钱，干脆多买点儿，In for a penny，in for a pound！
[解释]一个巴掌拍不响。孤掌难鸣。如果两个人在吵架，我认为错不在一方，两人都不对，那就可以说Ittakes two to tango。
9。It‘s all my eye！
[字面意思]都是的我的眼睛。
[解释]表示不同意或惊讶。大意相当于：我根本不相信；他说的都是骗人的鬼话；胡说八道。也可以说：That‘sall my eye。如果你听到了某人说的假话，你就可以说It’s all my eye！劝别人也不要相信。
一张图盘点最易混淆的百组“双胞胎”单词
对比法是将一组组、一对对单词同时记忆，它帮助孩子记住单词拼写的同时，还掌握了词与词的区别和各自特殊的用法，平时极易混淆的单词也能清楚地区别开，举个栗子：
acquire、inquire、require是三个形似词，拼写很相似，但意思却完全不同：acquire（取得，获得），inquire（打听，查询），require（需要，要求，命令），背诵的时候把它们三个放在一起背，显然要比孤立地背效果要好。
[解释]忘记了。没记住。我本想告诉你，你的女朋友来电话了，但是我把这事给忘记了。I meantto tell you your girl friend had called，but it slipped my mind。
8。It takes two to tango。
10个英文成语详解
10个英文成语详解10个英文成语详解所谓的精选就是字字珠玑, 没有烂竽充数的意思. 虽然英语的成语何其多, 没有几万也有几千, 小笨霖不求一网打尽, 但求每个列举出来的成语都是真正有用而且非常好用的成语.例如像是, "说曹操曹操就到"这句中文里耳能详的成语, 你知道英文版要怎么说吗? 答案就在下面喔!1. Speak of the devil.说曹操曹操就到.有些中文的成语用直接用英文翻出来老美还可以接受, 但是"说曹操, 曹操就到" 这句话要翻可就没有那么容易了.而何况你还要先解释曹操是谁, 那难度又更高了.以前我不会 Speak of the devil 时, 我都是说, That's a coincidence. (那真是一个巧合.) 但是大家现在学会了这句之后, 又更加好用了.下次当你们谈到某人, 某人就正好出现时, 你就可以说Speak of the devil. 或是 Talk of the devil.2. That's the best thing since sliced bread.那是有史以来最好的事情.像这句话要避免说成, the best thing in the history, 听来就不那么道地.老美他们都是用 the best thing since sliced bread 来表示有史以来最好的事情. 这句话的典故是这样的, 在 1928 年以前, 在美国所贩卖的面包都是整条没有切过的.所以面包买回家后还要自己切. 后来有一个密西根人Otto Rohwedder 发明了切面包的机器, 美国人一时之间觉得这种机器实在是太神奇了, 所以往后要是有什么很棒的事情发生, 他们就会说那是自从切面包的机器发明以来最好的事情. That's the best thing since slice bread. 这句话我常听到, 例如有一次网路银行Net Bank 的广告就说, Net Bank is the best thing since sliced bread.或许你会跟我一样觉得实在很可笑, 因为美国历史上重要的发明何其多. 这个切面包机可能连前一百名都排不进去, 为何把它的发明说成是最棒的事呢? 这个问题也许就要留给老美了. 不过如果你要展现一下自己的创意和幽默感, 建议你可以'故意'把这句话说成, That's the bestthing since the invention of space shuttle. (自从太空梭发明以来最棒的事.)3. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.When you are at Rome, do as they do at Rome.入境随俗.在美国有一群特殊的美国人, 他们坚持用传统的方式生活, 自己耕种, 驾马车, 不用电, 不能拍照. 这群人就是 Amish. 也因为这样, 很多他们居住的地方现在却成了观光胜地.听来很讽刺, 不是吗? 话说上次我去某个个 Amish 的市集买东西时, 看到很多的 Amish. 我好奇之下就问其中一个作 Amish 打扮的人说, Are you Amish? 结果你猜他怎么说? 他说, When in Rome, do as the Romans do. 天啊! 原来是个冒牌货! 所以大家下次不要再被骗了.从字面上的意思来看, When in Rome, do as the Romans do. 就是说当你在罗马的时候, 要表现的跟罗马人一样, 所以就有入境随俗的意思在内.另外关于罗马还有一些很常听到的成语可以顺便记一下, Rome was not built in a day. (罗马不是一天造成的.) All roads lead to Rome. (条条大路通罗马.)4. The lesser of the two evils.二颗烂苹果中比较不烂的.记得我刚来美国时我都会把这句话照中文的字面意义下去直接翻译, 说成, The better one of two rotten apples. 当然老美也是听得懂.直到有一次我班上的同学纠正我说, 这句话应该是The lesser of the two evils. 意谓著二恶相权取其轻. 说得再口语一点, 就是二颗烂苹果中比较不烂的意思吧!5. This is like chickens and eggs.这就像是倒底是先有鸡还是先有蛋的的道理.记得我在小学的时候我就会问, 鸡生蛋, 蛋生鸡, 那到底是先有鸡还是先有蛋.这个问题到我现在念到博士班了还是不会.所以看来这二十年是不是有点浪费了? 回到主题, 任何不知道时间先后的事情我们都可以用 chicken and eggs 来形容. 例如, 到底是有钱才去从政还是从政之后才有钱? This is like chickens and eggs.6. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.情人眼里出西施.这句话大家都不陌生吧! 要是看到某个美男和某个丑女走在一起, 你就可以深表婉惜地说, "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder." 总之这是各人喜好, 我们也不便多说什么. 另外有一句成语, 一朵鲜花插在牛粪上, 我曾试著用 A flower in the bullshit 来诠释, 可惜似乎老美不太懂我在说些什么. 各位有什么更好的建议吗? 至于速配的'话, 可以试试, Every Jack has its Jill. (破锅自有烂盖配.) 或是 Let beggars match with beggars. (乞丐配乞丐)7. Practice makes perfect.熟能生巧.不但是音乐家也好, 运动员也好, 在他们的成长过程中, 总是需要不断的练习才能有完美的演出. 这就造就了一句成语, Practice makes perfect. 鼓励别人要不断地去尝试错误.类似的成语例如 When at first you don't succeed, try try again. (如果一开始不成功的话, 要不断地尝试下次, 注意这里的 try try again 不是我多打了一个 try 而是老美真的是这样说的.),8. There is no such a thing as free lunch.天下没有白吃的午餐.这句成语太出名了, 似乎没有人不知道.这也是经济学的理论基础吧! 天底下没有那么好的事情可以不劳而获. 总之, 当我们听到一件事情好到不可思议时, 例如一元手机, 免费上网, 我们就可以对别人说, There is no such a thing as free lunch.但是有规则就有例外, 个人觉得美国的教会或是救世军(Salvation Army) 之类的慈善组织就蛮喜欢请大家吃免费的午餐.例如他们有时会办一些免费的 BBQ, 随到随吃, 吃到饱为止, 完全打破了天下没有白吃的午餐这个规则.9. If you can't dazzle them with your brilliance, baffle them with your bullshit.如果你无法用你的才能无法说服别人, 就用你的废话迷惑别人吧!这也许是个不争的事实, 老美在数理的基础上也许不如我们东方人, 但他们在数据收集, 上台报告方面却硬是比我们强上一大截, 这或许也是外国人无法在美国站上主流社会的原因之一吧! 所以各位要记得, baffle others with your bullshit. 把三分的结果加上七分的 bullshit. 就能拿到一个十分的成绩. 或许很讽刺, 但现实生活不也是如此吗?还有一些类似摆烂的成语, 蛮有趣的, 例如, If everything else fails, manipulate the data. (如果所有的方法都失败了, 就试著去改变量据吧!) 或是 If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that suggests you tried. (如果你不成功, 就把建议你这么作的所有证据都给毁了.)10. God is shining on you.你真是幸运.God is shining on you 就是指一个人非常幸运, 也就等于 You are very lucky 的意思. 例如大家修理一台机器都修不好, 结果你一来一下子就把问题给找出来, 别人就会对你说 God is shining on you.。

A penny for your thoughts.Ever found yourself lost in thought, pondering the mysteries of life? Sometimes, it feels like a penny for your thoughts just isn't enough to capture the depth of your contemplation. In those moments, the mind becomes a vast ocean, and each thought is a wave crashing against the shore of consciousness. It's a beautiful chaos, a symphony of ideas and emotions that can't be captured in mere words.2. Actions speak louder than words.We live in a world where words are thrown around like confetti. Promises are made, but often broken. It's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of empty rhetoric, but at the end of the day, it's actions that truly matter. Words may be eloquent, but they can also be empty and hollow.It's the deeds we do, the choices we make, that define who we are and leave a lasting impact on the world around us.3. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.Family is a funny thing. We're bound to them by blood, by history, by shared experiences. And sometimes, it feels like we're bound to repeat their mistakes as well. It's as if the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, and we find ourselves caught in a cycle of patterns and behaviors that we can't seem to escape. But perhaps, in recognizing this, we can also find the strength to break free and forge our own path.4. Birds of a feather flock together.Have you ever noticed how we tend to gravitate towards people who are similar to us? It's as if there's an invisible force that pulls us together, creating a sense of belonging and understanding. Like birds of a feather, we flock together, seeking comfort and companionship in those who share our interests, values, and aspirations. It's a reminder that we're not alone in this vast world, that there are others out there who see the world through thesame lens as we do.5. The grass is always greener on the other side.We're all guilty of it comparing ourselves to others and longing for what they have. It's easy to look at someone else's life and think that they have it all figured out, that their grass is greener than ours. But the truth is, appearances can be deceiving. We never truly know what someone else is going through or the challenges they face behind closed doors. So instead of longing for what wedon't have, perhaps it's better to focus on nurturing and appreciating the grass we're standing on.6. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs at us when we least expect it. It's in those moments of adversity that we have a choice to let the lemons sour our mood, or to make the best of a bad situation. It's about finding the silver lining, the opportunity for growth and resilience. So when life gives you lemons, don't just make lemonademake a whole damn lemonade stand and show the world what you're made of.7. Rome wasn't built in a day.We live in a world of instant gratification, where everything is just a click away. But the truth is, great things take time. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither are our dreams and aspirations. It's about putting in the work, day in and day out, even when the progress feels slow and the road feels long. It's about having patience and perseverance, knowing that every small step forward brings us closer to our goals.8. The early bird catches the worm.There's something magical about the early hours of the morning, when the world is still asleep and thepossibilities are endless. The early bird catches the worm, they say, and perhaps there's some truth to that. It's about seizing the day, making the most of every precious moment. So set that alarm clock a little earlier, and seewhat wonders await you in the quiet moments before theworld awakens.9. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.What is beauty? It's a question that has puzzled philosophers and artists for centuries. Is it a perfectly symmetrical face? A breathtaking landscape? Or perhaps, beauty is something that can't be defined by conventional standards. It's in the imperfections, the quirks, theunique qualities that make each person and each thing truly special. Beauty, after all, is in the eye of the beholder.10. All that glitters is not gold.We live in a world that often values appearances over substance. It's easy to be dazzled by the glitz and glamour, to be drawn to the shiny and new. But as the saying goes,all that glitters is not gold. It's a reminder to look beyond the surface, to seek out the true essence of things. Because sometimes, the most precious treasures are hiddenin the most unexpected places.。

按照国际惯例，当迎接他国国家元首的来访时，总要在地上铺上红地毯，以示敬意。
而今在一些较重要的场合也铺红地毯，对到场的贵宾表示欢迎。
因此，roll out the red carpet 就逐渐转义为“隆重接待”、“热烈欢迎”。
例句：Margaret's family rolled out the red carpet for her teacher when she came to dinner.玛格丽特全家热烈欢迎她的老师到家里赴宴。

芥末通常和其它食品一同摆在餐桌上，如果等大家都吃完饭后，才把芥末端上桌，似为时已晚，无此必要了。
因此，mustard after dinner 的含义与汉语中的“雨后送伞、马后炮” 意思相近。
例句：I could have given you advice, but now it's like mustardafter dinner .我本可以给你一些忠告，但现在却像雨后送伞，为时已晚。
not worth a rush直译：不值一张草席实际使用：毫无价值源于旧时的西方习俗。

100个英语成语助你成为英语达人(第二期)
NO.21 make a mountain out of a molehill--小题大作■to exaggerate trifling difficulties（将微不足道的困难夸大）■molehill指的是“鼹鼠钻洞之后旁边遗留的土堆”。
这句成语最早出现于英国喜剧作家优督（Nicholas Udall）所翻译的《新约释义》（Paraphrase of Erasmus）。
这本书提到：“希腊的哲学家能言善道，可以把小苍蝇说成大象，把鼹鼠丘说成大山。
（Sophists of Greece could through their copiousness make an elephant of a fly and a mountain of a molehill.）”后来每当西方人表示某人说话夸张或喜欢小题大作时，就会说他“把鼹鼠堆说成大山”了！■You're not hurt badly, Tom. Stop trying to make mountain out of a molehill with crying.Tom，你伤得并不严重，所以不要小题大作一直哭。
NO.22 Job's comforter--好意安慰却使人更加沮丧的人■sb. who intends to comfort but increases distress（想要安慰人家却增加别人痛苦的人）■这句用语源自旧约圣经《约伯记》（Job）。
根据记载，上帝为了试炼他的信徒约伯（ Job），于是让他经历了一连串一般人所不能承受的苦难，包括失去财富，健康甚至家人，但约伯自始至终都坚持着对上帝的信念，一路走来并未被苦难所击垮，最后得到上帝最大的恩赐。
可是在一切磨难尚未结束前，约伯的朋友安慰他时，竟误会他是因为身上有许多罪孽才会受到惩罚，让他的心情反而更加沉重。
后来当有人要安慰别人却反而使人更加痛苦时，他像是“约伯身旁的安慰者”。
