“Chicken” idioms(習(xí)語(yǔ))

The word “chicken” is used in so many English idioms. Do you know the following?

Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.

The expression“Don’t count your chickens before they hatch”means “Don’t expect that all your eggs, which have been laid, will hatch. “Hatch” is a verb, meaning the baby chicken breaks open the shell of the egg and comes out successfully. So the expression mainly means “Don’t depend on things working out just as you want them to.” this saying appears in the story The Milkmaid and Her Pail in Aesop’s Fables.

A chicken-and-egg situation

In history, philosophers(哲學(xué)家)and scientists have met this dilemma(困境): Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Aristotle thought that both the bird and the egg must have always been there. However, more recently, scientists such as Stephen Hawking have argued that the egg came before the chicken. In common speech, the term “a chicken-and-egg situation” means a situation where it is impossible to say which of two things appeared first and which caused the other one.

Don’t be such a chicken

There seems to be an idea in English, somehow, that a chicken is a scared bird. Maybe that’s not fair as most birds will probably fly away from you if you go towards them. But “Don’t be such a chicken” means “Don’t be so scared and get a bit more courage.” So if your friend fear to do something, you can say to him or her, “Don’t be such a chicken. Just have a try!”

1.The underlined word “hatch” means “_______” in Chinese.

A. 孵化 B. 長(zhǎng)大 C. 破碎 D. 出售

A. Aristotle’s opinion was wrong

B. Stephen Hawking’s opinion is wrong

C. it’s impossible to find the right answer to this question

Have you ever had a travel on the train that was named after the letter D?

Named after the letter D, the new trains run at a speed of 200 to 250 kilometers an hour. 1. For example, it used to take 12 hours to travel from Shanghai to Beijing. 2. The most interesting part of the trains is the revolving (旋轉(zhuǎn)的) seats. People can adjust(調(diào)整) their seats as they like, so that it is easy for them to talk with others around them face to face.

However, many people still won’t choose D-type trains for some reasons. 3. For example, a hard seat ticket from Beijing to Tianjin is only ¥90 for T-type trains. But on the new trains, all the seats are soft. 4. On the other hand, the new trains stop at some stations for a very short time. 5.

A. For example, D31 stops at Tianjin only for one minute.

B. The ticket prices of the trains are much higher.

C. And they each cost ¥153.

D. But now it only takes 10 hours.

E. They make the trips much funnier.

F. They are much faster than K-type and T-type trains.
