意为：放开些；彻底放松。17世纪时期，英国女性多留长发，她们外出参加活动的时候，习惯盘起头发，做出各种造型，晚上回到家取下发夹，把头发放下来，让它随意的披在肩上。放下头发这种行为就叫做let ones hair down。由于它体现了一种回到家不用再顾及形象的放松姿态，英语里面就引申为“卸下包袱，彻底放松”。2.John studies day in and day out,so after every exam,he comes off with flying colors.A.速战速决地B.头昏眼花地C.成绩优异地答案：C 句意：约翰日夜勤读，所以每次考试，他的成绩都非常出色。flying colors 是由pass with flying colors演变而来。pass with flying colors表示“有广泛回旋余地的成功或胜利”。其中colors指在桅杆上飘扬的海军军旗或三角旗。当一艘战舰和敌舰进行遭遇战胜出以后，该舰的军旗仍然迎风飘扬，这说明该舰没有受到严重的创伤，即获得完全的胜利。3.An honest,hard-working man is the salt of the earth.A.社会的中坚分子 B.社会的知识分子C.社会的敌对分子答案：A句意：诚实而勤劳的人才是社会的中坚分子。the salt of the earth 意为：高尚的人；社会的中坚分子。该词块典故出自圣经，耶稣对他的门徒说：“Ye are the salt of the earth:but if the salt have lost its flavor,wherewith shall it be salted?”（你们是世上的盐，盐若失了味，如何才能再咸呢？）在这里，salt转义为elite?li?t of the world（中坚力量，精英，高尚的人）。4.The hospital staff pulled out all the stops to make sure the children had a wonderful day.A.集思广益B.别出心裁C.竭尽全力答案：C 句意：医院员工竭尽全力来确保孩子们能过上愉快的一天。pull out all the stops 意为：竭尽全力；全力以赴。这里的stops指管风琴上的圆纽，用来控制琴上的那些笛管是否奏乐。按下stops，笛管就停止奏乐，而演奏者得拔起他要用的笛管上的stops，让气流进入，才能奏出他需要的乐声。所以如果演奏者pull out all the stops，那么这架管风琴上所有的笛管就是在齐声共鸣了。5.He is too young to separate the sheep from the goats.A.做出决策B.承担重任C.明辨是非答案：C句意：他太年轻，无法明辨是非。separate the sheep from the goats 意为：辨明好坏；明辨是非。由于圣经的影响，sheep和goat在英语中的形象截然不同，前者比喻好人，后者比喻坏人。英语中有关goat的成语，大多贬义。例如：act/play the goat表示做蠢事。6.Simon has just left school and is still wet behind the ears.A.毫无经验B.碌碌无为C.年轻气盛答案：A句意：西蒙刚从学校毕业，现在还没什么经验呢。据说这个习语源于胎生动物，如牛、羊刚生下来的时候全身湿漉漉的，虽然它们的身体很快就干了，但是耳朵背后却还是湿的。因此，它的真正含义是“乳臭未干，初出茅庐”，形容年轻人“少不更事，缺乏经验”。7.Her room is always at sixes and sevens.A.五颜六色B.乱七八糟C.千奇百怪答案：B句意：她的房间总是乱七八糟的。at sixes and sevens 意为：乱七八糟；杂乱无章。据说sixes and sevens最早出现在14世纪，是一种叫做“hazard”的掷骰游戏。“five and six”被改成了“six and seven”，因为7这个数字根本不可能被掷出来，所以它的意思变成了“不惜冒一切风险”。直到17世纪中期，意思发生了变化，多指处于一种很混乱的状态。8.After singing all night at home,I had a frog in the throat next morning.A.咽喉发炎B.声音嘶哑C.名声大噪答案：B句意：在家里唱了一整夜的歌，第二天早晨我的嗓子有点嘶哑了。have a frog in your throat 意为：(因喉咙干或想咳嗽而)说话困难；声音嘶哑。关于这个短语的由来，有两种说法。一种是据说以前人们常从小溪中直接取水饮用，可能无意中将青蛙的卵吞进肚子。当时人们相信，卵会在人们的喉咙里化成青蛙，哽住你的喉咙，使你说不出话来。另一种说法是说人在嗓子不舒服时，发出的声音沙哑比较像青蛙。意思表达非常形象的词语搭配和习语意思表达非常形象的词语搭配和习语9.He lives only a stones throwfrom here.A.一墙之隔B.一步之遥C.荒山野岭答案：B句意：他住的地方离这里一步之遥。a stones throw 意为：很短的距离；一步之遥。10.Rose can be a real challenge to look after at home,even for people with green fingers.A.丰富经验B.种植新手C.园艺技术答案：C句意：在家种养玫瑰花可是件充满挑战的事情，即使对园艺技术高手来说也一样。green fingers 意为：园艺技术；种植技能。11.Im a small potato.No one will listen to me.A.打工仔B.小人物C.志愿者答案：B句意：我只是个微不足道的小人物，没有人会听我的。small potato 原意是“鸡毛蒜皮等微不足道的东西”，但现在大家较常用它指“小人物、微不足道的人”。12.As kids we used to fight like cat and dog.A.活蹦乱跳B.嬉戏玩耍C.大吵大闹答案：C句意：小时候，我们总是吵吵闹闹。fight like cat and dog 形容“人与人之间的争吵非常激烈、吵得不可开交”。意为：大吵大闹；争吵不休。13.They fought tooth and nail but lost.A.奋力拼搏B.忍气吞声C.以牙还牙答案：A句意：他们奋力拼搏，结果还是输了。fight tooth and nail 意为：全力以赴。带入到特定场景中，如果打架用到牙齿又用到指甲，那真可谓是拼尽全力的一场“恶斗”，所以fight tooth and nail就有了“全力以赴，奋力拼搏”的意思。14.Im wearing two hats tonight parent and teacher.A.身兼两职B.进退两难C.一举两得答案：A句意：我今晚身兼两职既是家长又是老师。wear two hats意为：身兼两职，也就是同时做两份工作或者完成两个任务。15.The others had complained that Sarah wasnt pulling her
