實用口語練習的句子
1. Head Start
如果這兩個詞開頭的字母是大寫，則連在一起是一個專有名詞，指的是美國政府為貧窮或弱智的兒童設立的一種訓練機構，這種機構旨在幫助他們在進小學之前能趕上教學進度。例如：
Many poor parents send their children to Head Start.
很多貧窮的家庭都將他們的孩子送去Head Start接受提前教育。
但是如果head start的字母是小寫，那么就是普通名詞了，是指比別人早著手或領先，例如：
To know more colloquial expressions is a head start in learning English.
了解更多的俗語對學習英語有好處。

是指有錢人或出身富家的人
Some people do not want to admit that they have blue blood.
有些人不愿承認自己是富家出身。
Many blue blooded children attend this private school.

2011年實用口語練習:生活奢華的豬
1．Pig out 狼吞虎咽地大吃
Pig out = make a pig of oneself。它們都有“狼吞虎咽”的意思。
We pigged out on pizza last night.
昨天晚上我們大吃了一頓比薩。
His favorite pig out food is barbecued spareribs.
他一輩子都吃不厭的食物就是燒排骨。
2．High on the hog 生活奢華
除了pig這個單詞，hog也有豬的意思，尤其是已經(jīng)長到120磅以上的食用豬。對現(xiàn)代人來說，豬肉是相當普遍的肉品，不過你可能不知道"吃豬肉"也曾被認為是奢侈的享受呢！這里的hog指的是養(yǎng)大供食用的豬，這種豬的上身（high）包括腰、大腿等味道最好的部位，只有富有的王公貴族才有機會吃到；而較貧困的貧民或奴隸，就只能吃到肉質較差的下身（low）部位，如豬肚、豬蹄等。久而久之，eat/live high on the hog 就成為富有奢侈的象征了。
例如：
The boy lived high on the hog after getting his inheritance.
這個男孩自從得到遺產(chǎn)后就過著奢華的生活。
The White House dinner this time is certainly high on the hog.
白宮舉行的這次晚宴當然豪華無比了。

2011年實用口語練習:當豬飛起來的時候
1．When pigs fly 無稽之談
如果哪一天豬都能飛起來，那可真是怪了，所以這句話就用來表示某事根本不可能，純屬無稽之談。
例如：He'll win a match when pigs fly.
他要是能贏得比賽就怪了！
He will pass the bar exam when pigs fly.
他絕不可能通過律師考試。
Bar:律師，法庭。The bar：律師界
2．Go whole hog 全力以赴，徹底地干
這句話的起源說法如下：英國人在十七世紀時稱一先令（shilling）為一個hog，當時一個hog能買不少東西，所以go whole hog 就是指一次把一先令花掉，一毛也不剩。后來就被引申為徹底地完成某件事。
例如：
Instead of just painting the room, why not go whole hog and redecorate it completely?
與其只是粉刷一下這個房間，干嗎不徹底把它裝修一下呢？
Whenever Tom takes up a new hobby, he goes whole hog.
每當湯姆開始一項新的嗜好，他都玩得很徹底。
3．Bring home the bacon 養(yǎng)家糊口
舊時農(nóng)村趕集或過節(jié)，會舉行各項游戲和體育比賽。人們會在一只豬身上抹油，讓它四處亂跑，誰能捉住，就把這只豬帶回家作為獎品。后來任何競賽奪標回來，或在外"掙飯"、謀生、養(yǎng)活家小，都形容為"把咸肉帶回家"。
例如：
Nowadays, it is often the wife who holds down a job and brings home the bacon.
現(xiàn)在，妻子在外工作、掙錢養(yǎng)家已經(jīng)很普遍了。
He works night and day to bring home the bacon.
他夜以繼日辛勤工作維持生活。
