這次有更多的Idioms(成語)給你們唷^__________^ 這是QQ在無意間發現的，覺得蠻好的，所以就貼在這裡囉，不過當然有講從哪裡出來的，否則侵犯人家版權也是不對的，你說是嗎？^^ QQ有加上一些註解，希望大家看的更明白些^_^ wkend有要去哪裡嗎？ 沒有的話，多學學英文吧^_^

1.She's buying a lot of new furniture before she even has a job.
‧She's putting the cart before the hourse. 本末倒置
看過馬車吧？既然叫做馬車，就是馬在前頭，車在後頭囉，這裡講 putting the cart before the hourse，把馬放在車的後頭，不是『本末倒置』是什麼？^^
2.I can't think off the answer, but it will come to me in just a minute.
‧It's on the tip of my tongue. 表示(答案)"快要出來了" 不過...... "嗯嗯"快要出來，不能用這個喔，因為.... 不會是從嘴巴出來的對吧？.....
3.What was it like when the announcement of the disaster came over the radio? You could have heard a pin drop.
‧could have heard a pin drop：鴉雀無聲
你看連 a pin，一根針，掉在地上都聽得到，真的是『鴉雀無聲』喔~ 不過這裡也可以另形容非常之震驚喔。
4.It seems impossible for me go to graduate school because i just can't afford it. But I'm going to try. Where there's a will, there's a way!
‧Where there's a will, there's a way! 有志者事竟成
graduate school就是我們講的『研究所』。can't afford it - 付不起，也可以當作禁不起的意思，you can't afford to miss this chance. 你禁不起喪失這個機會唷~ WILL 這裡當然不是當動詞，是當名詞：意志力、決心、慾望.. Where there's a will, there's a way! Amen嗎？^^
5.She was appointed to the environmental protection committee, and she's really excited because this is something she's been interested in for some time. This is something she can sink her teeth into.
‧sink her teeth = 全力以赴，積極參與 (To be actively involved in)
she's appointed to - 被委任(當).. environment - 環境；protection - 保護；committee - 委員(同工)
6.You need to learn to relax. Every time there's a lot of work to do, you just run around like a chicken with its head cut off.
‧run around like a chicken with its head cut off：瞎忙
沒頭的雞... 還能忙，果然是"瞎忙"
