A
Hello and welcome to English with Lucy. Today we have another topic: "Four Common British
Expressions." Now, before we get started, make sure you connect with me on all my social media,
which is right here. You can subscribe to(订阅) my YouTube. You can also like me on Facebook.
And for my Chinese followers, I have my Weibo account as well.
Four Common British Expressions:
"A piece of cake."
And this is very similar to "easy-peasy, lemon squeezy," which we've discussed in a former
video. And basically, it means very easy. So I might come out of an easy exam saying, "That
exam was a piece of cake."
"Break a leg!"
It actually looks really rather cruel, but I promise you it's positive. And "Break a leg!" means
"Good luck!" So before a race, before a job interview, before a test, instead of saying "Good
luck!," I might say "Break a leg!" Do really well.
"It cost an arm and a leg."
And this basically means something was really expensive. If I say, "My bag cost an arm and a
leg," I mean it cost a lot of money.
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂"To call it a day."
And this means "to end a task." So, for example, "I'm feeling a bit tired. I think I'll call it a day."
That means "I think I'll stop here. Let's finish."
Thank you so much for watching this program of "Four Common British Expressions." I hope
you like it, and I hope you've learned something.
1. How can Chinese listeners connect with Lucy?

A. Break a leg! B. It cost an arm and a leg.

【解析】本题考查判断推理题。根据"Break a leg!"中And "Break a leg!" means "Good luck!"

"Break a leg!"可知,当约翰去参加英语演讲比赛时,你应该对他说“Break a leg!(祝你好
运)”。故选A项。

A. He/She will stop that day. B. He/She feels tired.
C. Class is over. D. It is daytime.

Cross-cultural misunderstandings occur when people from one culture do not understand the
actions and behavior of people from another culture. Everyone has experienced that feeling of
being socially or culturally “off balance” at some stage. It happens when we enter unfamiliar
cultural environments and find that things are strange or different. For example, it can occur when
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂a person begins a new job. Until an employee can operate comfortably and successfully within the
social and cultural environment of a new workplace, he cannot be fully effective.
Knowing about the diversity of traditional and cultural backgrounds of our customers and
colleagues will not automatically rule out misunderstandings. However, if we do know something
about it, we can often take steps to prevent misunderstandings from occurring. It is a matter of
being aware of when, where and why a misunderstanding may occur.
There may be a language barrier that can make clear communication difficult. The way we
communicate is a common cause of misunderstanding. For example, jokes often rely on a creative
use of language and sometimes these can be interpreted in many ways, which may be confusing or
even offensive.
Non-verbal behavior and body language can be a source of misunderstanding. For example,
eye contact can be considered by some people as overly long and therefore rude.
Addressing customers by their first names may not always be inappropriate. Check with your
customers how they like to be addressed.
People from different religious or cultural backgrounds or with personal preferences may
have specific dietary requirements. Check their requirements when determining any food menus.
Offering alcohol to guests whose religion doesn’t allow them to enjoy can create a tense situation
at the beginning of a meal.
4. If a new employee doesn’t perform highly effective, which can be a reason?
A. He can’t understand the working rules well.
B. He is not satisfied with his new occupation.
C. He is not familiar with the new working environment.
D. He usually fails to operate the equipment successfully.
【答案】C
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。根据文中 It happens when we enter unfamiliar cultural
environments and find that things are strange or different. For example, it can occur when a person
begins a new job. Until an employee can operate comfortably and successfully within the social
and cultural environment of a new workplace, he cannot be fully effective.句意是:当我们进入
陌生的文化环境,发现事物是陌生或不同的时候,就会发生这种情况。例如,当一个人开
始一项新工作时,就可能发生这种情况。除非员工能够在新工作场所的社会和文化环境中
舒适、成功地工作,否则他的工作就不会是完全高效的。)可知,如果一个新员工工作不
高效,那么很可能是由于他对新的工作环境不熟悉。故选C项。

A. Clear up misunderstandings.
B. Help prevent misunderstandings.
C. Tell us how to predict misunderstandings.
D. Remind us of the existence of misunderstandings.
【答案】B
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。根据文中 Knowing about the diversity of traditional and
cultural backgrounds of our customers and colleagues will not automatically rule out
misunderstandings. However, if we do know something about it, we can often take steps to
prevent misunderstandings from occurring.(了解客户和同事的传统和文化背景的多样性不会
自动排除误解。然而,如果我们确实知道一些事情,我们可以经常采取措施防止误解的发
生。)可知,了解传统文化和文化背景的多样性能帮助我们阻止误解的产生。故选B项。
6. What would make jokes confusing or even offensive?
A. Rude words used. B. Poor translation.
C. Different understanding. D. Creative thought in them.
【答案】C
【解析】本题考查推理判断题。根据文中For example, jokes often rely on a creative use of
language and sometimes these can be interpreted in many ways, which may be confusing or even
offensive.(例如,笑话通常依赖于创造性地使用语言,有时可以用多种方式来解释,然而
这可能会令人困惑,甚至是冒犯别人。)可知,如果以不同的角度理解笑话的话,这个笑
话听起来可能是令人困惑的,甚至可能冒犯别人。故选C项。
7. Which of the following is a proper way to avoid cultural misunderstanding?
A. Use as little body language as possible.
B. Avoid making eye contact when talking.
C. Address customers always by their first names.
D. Offer your guests food according to their requirements.
【答案】D
【解析】本题考查逻辑推理题。根据文中 People from different religious or cultural
backgrounds or with personal preferences may have specific dietary requirements. Check their
requirements when determining any food menus. Offering alcohol to guests whose religion doesn't
allow them to enjoy can create a tense situation at the beginning of a meal.(不同宗教或文化背
景或个人喜好的人可能有特定的饮食要求。在确定任何食物菜单时一定要确定客人的饮食
需求。如果客人的宗教信仰不允许他们喝酒,那么在用餐开始时就给他们提供酒可能会让
他们感到紧张。)可推知,如果我们能根据客人不同的文化背景提供给客人不同的事物,
这样的话可以有效避免误解。故选D项。
C
Lunch is a part of Chinese culture. When I'm back home in England, I often miss Chinese
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂lunch.
At home, at work, at school, English lunchtime is far from a formal meal of the day. It seems
that we can't wait to finish lunch as quickly as possible. People working in the office take out
packed sandwiches that are not delicious. Work canteens(餐厅) are crowded with people too busy
to eat, rushing to the checkout(收银台) with something in hand so that they can quickly eat up on
the way to another meeting. A lot of work in England leaves little time to have our meals and
enjoy them. Perhaps this is why so many of us hold such unhealthy relationships with food.
The way we plan our days in England shows we don't care about mealtimes. Meetings, lectures,
interviews and so on are all planned from 12 a.m. to 2 p.m. In Beijing lunch often starts from
11:30 p.m. to 1 p.m. And owners of many shops gather in small groups to share a meal, which is
hardly seen in England. I have never experienced such a culture where finding time to eat is so
important.
In China, food is shared and the time is enjoyed as a moment of get-together in busy days. This
is a value and practice we should hold in our lives in England. In China food is not only a
necessity(必需品), but also a time for get-together with friends and family, and I love it.
8. Why can't most English people enjoy their lunch?
A. They think British food is terrible.
B. They are anxious to go shopping.
C. They are too busy with work.
D. They have much housework.
【答案】C
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。由文中第二段 The world of work in Britain leaves little time
to consume our meals, let alone enjoy them. Perhaps this is why so many of us harbor such
unhealthy relationship with food.可知,紧张的日程安排让英国人忽视午餐时间。故选C项。
9. Which does the author like most about Chinese lunch?
A. Its atmosphere B. Its taste
C. Its price D. Its kinds
【答案】A
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。由最后一段中 In China workers or students eat together. Food
is shared and the time is enjoyed as a moment of reunion within busy lives. This is a value and
practice we should hold more dearly in our lives in Britain.可知,关于中国午餐作者最欣赏的
是在一起享用午餐的时候的氛围。故选A项。
10. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂A. English people don't take mealtimes seriously.
B. English lunchtime lasts one and a half hours.
C. English people never experience Chinese culture.
D. English people like to get together in groups.
【答案】A
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。根据第三段第一句The way we plan our days in England
shows we don't care about mealtimes.可知,我们在英国的生活计划表明我们不在意吃饭时间。
所以,英国人不把吃饭时间当回事。故选A项。
11. What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. The best way to experience Chinese lunch.
B. Lunch differences between China and England.
C. Suggestions of enjoying English culture.
D. The stressful lifestyles of English people.
【答案】B
【解析】本题考查主旨大意题。午餐在中国是件大事,作者体验了中国的午餐时间,又和
英国的午餐时间做了对比。故选B项。
D
A British friend told me he couldn't understand why Chinese people love eating sunflower
seeds(嗑瓜子)as a snack so much. "I've met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in
their front teeth, I believe that's from cracking the seeds," he said.
I had never noticed the habit,but once he mentioned it,I suddenly became more aware. I
realized that whenever I'm watching TV or typing a report,I always start mindlessly cracking
sunflower seeds. My friend doesn't like sunflower seeds,and,to him,it seems unnecessary to work
so much just to get one small seed.
When we were young,the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year.
Then,we all lived close to one another,usually in a small city,and sometimes even neighbors
would go door-to-door on Chinese New Year's Eve to check out what every household was
making.
I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking. Out in the living room,a large table
would already be laid out,complete with fancy tablecloth,ready-made dumpling fillings,and dishes
full of candy,fruits and sunflower seeds. Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂later,while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast. I must have
learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then. I don't think it's right to criticize one's choice in
food or eating habits,no matter how strange they may seem.
It's not only in China. When I went abroad,I found people had all sorts of strange habits when
it came to food. In Denmark,they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner,no matter how
much it ruins your breath. They think it's delicacy(美味佳肴),and it's connected to their
certain culture. I think it's a wonderful tradition.
12. Why can the British friend not understand when he found Chinese love eating sunflower
seeds?
A. Because the seeds are too hard to crack.
B. Because he thinks they art harmful to teeth.
C. Because he doesn't think the seeds are good.
D. Because he doesn't thinks the seeds are worth eating.
【答案】D
【解析】本题考查推理判断题。根据第二段"My friend doesn't like sunflower seeds,and,to
him,it seems unnecessary to work so much just to get one small seed. 我的朋友不喜欢葵花籽,
而且,对他来说,似乎没有必要为了得到一颗小种子花那么多功夫。"可知当这位英国朋友
发现中国人喜欢吃葵花籽时,他不明白因为他认为葵花籽不值得吃。故选D项。
13. What does the writer prove by mentioning Chinese New Year?
A. The families get together for it.
B. Eating sunflower seeds is related to it.
C. The traditions of celebrating it disappear.
D. Children can eat delicious food on that day.
【答案】B
【解析】本题考查推理判断题。根据文章第四段,I remember my parents would be in the
kitchen cooking.Out in the living room,a large table would already be laid out,complete with
fancy tablecloth,ready-made dumping fillings,and dishes full of candy,fruits and sunflower seeds.
我会记得我父母在厨房里烹饪。在客厅里,一张大桌子已经摆好了,摆满了漂亮的桌布、
现成的饺子馅、盛满糖果、水果和葵花籽的盘子。可知,作者提到农历新年证明了嗑瓜子
与风俗有关,结合选项,故选B项。
14. What's the writer's attitude to Denmark's way of eating bread?
A. indifferent B. critical
C. understandable D. doubtful
【答案】C
【解析】本题考查作者观点态度题。根据文章最后一段,In Denmark,they put salted red fish

delicacy,and it's connected to their culture.I think it's a wonderful tradition. 在丹麦,他们把咸红
鱼放在面包上,然后当晚餐吃,不管面包对他们的呼吸有多大的破坏。他们我觉得这是一
种美味,而且和他们的文化有关,我认为这是一个很好的传统。可知,作者认为丹麦的方
式吃面包是可以理解的。A. indifferent 漠不关心的;B.critical 批评的;C.
understandable理解的;D.doubtful怀疑的。结合选项,故选C项。
15. What idea does the writer want to express in this passage?
A. It is good to form healthy eating habits.
B. Eating habits come from a certain culture.
C. Changing your eating habits will change your life.
D. One kind of food doesn't necessarily suit everyone.
【答案】B
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。根据文章最后一段,It's not only in China.When I went
abroad,I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food. 不仅仅是在中国。当
我出国的时候,我发现人们在饮食方面有各种奇怪的习惯。可知,饮食习惯来自某一文化
结合选项,故选B项。

●Touching Someone
( 17 ) In Mediterranean countries, if you don't touch someone's arm when talking to them or
if you don't greet them with kisses or a warm hug, you'll be considered cold. But backslap (拍背)
someone who isn't a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you'll make them
uncomfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacred—never even pat a child on the head.

In some countries, like China, Japan and some African nations, the food's the thing, so don't
start chatting about your day's adventures while everyone else is digging into dinner. ( 18 ) It's

America is full of taboo topics. Usually, during a polite conversation, Americans
will (23) both politics and religion. They also avoid talking about racial issues (种族问题).
Why? Because these topics can cause strong opinions and (24) . Americans believe it's best to

words. Boasting (夸大) your achievements will only make you the (35) of other people's jokes.

【答案】
Dear Jack,
I am very glad to learn that you are coming to China this summer. As for the problem that you
mentioned in your letter, I have some tips for you.
Firstly, just like learning any other foreign language, when learning Chinese, you should not
be shy. On the contrary, you should be confident and brave, and try to speak Chinese whenever
you can. This is very important. After all, the more you use Chinese, the better you will learn it.
Besides, you’d better speak Chinese slowly and clearly. In this way, you can make yourself
understood by others easily. Thirdly, if others canˈt understand you, or you don’t know how to
express yourself, it is also a good idea to use pictures or body language to help you. I really hope
you will find my advice useful and helpful.

A monk(和尚) used to live in a hut at a side of a village. He read books all day long,
without worrying for food or money. He was a very kind and tender-hearted person. All the
villagers greatly admired his noble character. That is why everyone offered him food and wanted
to help him.
Once, it was a cold winter. The monk had a fire burning in his hut for warmth. Suddenly, there

the door and found a fox out there shivering in cold. She spoke, "I live on the hills out there.
Heavy snow is falling there, making my life difficult. Please kindly give me a little room in your
hut for the night. I will go away in the morning." The monk politely called her in and said, "Don't
worry, dear. You can live here as long as you wish." In the warmth of the heated hut the fox felt
very comfortable. The monk gave her some bread and milk. The fox quickly ate it and slept in a
corner.
In the morning, the fox asked for the permission to leave. The monk told her to come
whenever she liked. The fox again came back at the night. The monk talked with her about the
day's happenings and gave her some food. After eating, the fox went to sleep.
A few months passed and the season changed. One day the fox said, "You took so great care
of me all through the winter, I want to do something for you in return." The monk remarked,
"Dear fox, it was my duty to do something for you. Please don't embarrass me by talking in this
way." The fox pleaded, "I am not trying to pay back your kindness. I love you and respect you. By
doing something for you I will feel a great pride in me. I wish to be of some use to you."
Paragraph 1:
The monk thought for some time and hesitantly said, "I don't need anything. But sometimes I

【答案】
The monk thought for some time and hesitatingly said, "I don't need anything. But sometimes
I wish I had a piece of gold. As you know, I have always been relying on the villagers, without
whom I would be starving to death. Naturally, it has long been my desire to do something in return
for their favor. All I can do is help educate their children. With no access to proper facilities and
books, most of the kids in the village stay uneducated. A piece of gold is all I need to equip them
with adequate knowledge so that they can have better chances of a bright future." Hearing this, the
fox nodded and promised she would see to it that the monk could have what he was longing for.
With these words, the fox left in no time.
It was now six months since the fox had gone. The more time went by, the more certain the
monk felt that she wouldn't come back. One day, however, there was someone knocking at the
door. The monk opened it and much to his astonishment, there stood the fox with a piece of gold
in her mouth. She looked much skinnier than he last saw her. Deeply moved, the monk hugged the
fox tightly with tears in his eyes. It turned out that the fox spent the last half of a year trying to
fulfill her promise and she made it.
