实用口语练习的句子
1. Head Start
如果这两个词开头的字母是大写，则连在一起是一个专有名词，指的是美国政府为贫穷或弱智的儿童设立的一种训练机构，这种机构旨在帮助他们在进小学之前能赶上教学进度。例如：
Many poor parents send their children to Head Start.
很多贫穷的家庭都将他们的孩子送去Head Start接受提前教育。
但是如果head start的字母是小写，那么就是普通名词了，是指比別人早着手或领先，例如：
To know more colloquial expressions is a head start in learning English.
了解更多的俗语对学习英语有好处。

2011年实用口语练习:生活奢华的猪
2011年实用口语练习:生活奢华的猪
1．Pig out 狼吞虎咽地大吃
Pig out = make a pig of oneself。它们都有“狼吞虎咽”的意思。
We pigged out on pizza last night.
昨天晚上我们大吃了一顿比萨。
His favorite pig out food is barbecued spareribs.
他一辈子都吃不厌的食物就是烧排骨。
2．High on the hog 生活奢华
除了pig这个单词，hog也有猪的意思，尤其是已经长到120磅以上的食用猪。对现代人来说，猪肉是相当普遍的肉品，不过你可能不知道"吃猪肉"也曾被认为是奢侈的享受呢！这里的hog指的是养大供食用的猪，这种猪的上身（high）包括腰、大腿等味道最好的部位，只有富有的王公贵族才有机会吃到；而较贫困的贫民或奴隶，就只能吃到肉质较差的下身（low）部位，如猪肚、猪蹄等。久而久之，eat/live high on the hog 就成为富有奢侈的象征了。
例如：
The boy lived high on the hog after getting his inheritance.
这个男孩自从得到遗产后就过着奢华的生活。
The White House dinner this time is certainly high on the hog.
白宫举行的这次晚宴当然豪华无比了。
2011年实用口语练习:当猪飞起来的时候
2011年实用口语练习:当猪飞起来的时候
1．When pigs fly 无稽之谈
如果哪一天猪都能飞起来，那可真是怪了，所以这句话就用来表示某事根本不可能，纯属无稽之谈。
例如：He'll win a match when pigs fly.
他要是能赢得比赛就怪了！
He will pass the bar exam when pigs fly.
他绝不可能通过律师考试。
Bar:律师，法庭。The bar：律师界
2．Go whole hog 全力以赴，彻底地干
这句话的起源说法如下：英国人在十七世纪时称一先令（shilling）为一个hog，当时一个hog能买不少东西，所以go whole hog 就是指一次把一先令花掉，一毛也不剩。后来就被引申为彻底地完成某件事。
例如：
Instead of just painting the room, why not go whole hog and redecorate it completely?
与其只是粉刷一下这个房间，干吗不彻底把它装修一下呢？
Whenever Tom takes up a new hobby, he goes whole hog.
每当汤姆开始一项新的嗜好，他都玩得很彻底。
3．Bring home the bacon 养家糊口
旧时农村赶集或过节，会举行各项游戏和体育比赛。人们会在一只猪身上抹油，让它四处乱跑，谁能捉住，就把这只猪带回家作为奖品。后来任何竞赛夺标回来，或在外"挣饭"、谋生、养活家小，都形容为"把咸肉带回家"。
例如：
Nowadays, it is often the wife who holds down a job and brings home the bacon.
现在，妻子在外工作、挣钱养家已经很普遍了。
He works night and day to bring home the bacon.
他夜以继日辛勤工作维持生活。
