I’m Rich Kleinfeldt with some expressions using the word “heart”. People believed for a long time that the heart was the center of a person’s emotions. That is why the word “heart” is used in so many expressions about emotional situations.
One such expression is to lose your heart to someone. When that happens, you have fallen in love. But if the person who won your heart does not love you, then you are sure to have a broken heart. In your pain and sadness, you may decide that the person you loved is hard-hearted, and in fact, has a heart of stone.
At that time, you may decide to pour out your heart to a friend. Telling someone about your personal problems can often make you feel better. If your friend does not seem to understand how painful your broken heart is, you may ask her to have a heart. If she says she is sorry, she shows great concern for how you feel. Your friend may, however, warn you, not to wear your heart on your sleeve(袖子). In other words, do not let everyone see how lovesick you are.
In the ever-popular motion picture The Wizard of Oz(绿野仙踪), the Tin Man seeks a heart. He wanted to feel the emotion of love. The Cowardly Lion, in the same movie, did have a heart. But he lacked courage and wanted to ask the Wizard of Oz to give him some. You could say that the Cowardly Lion was chicken-hearted. That is another way of describing someone who is not very brave.
A chicken is not famous for its bravery. Thus, someone who is chicken-hearted does not have much courage. When you are frightened or concerned, your heart is in your mouth. You might say, for example, that your heart was in your mouth when you ask a pay rise. If boss says no to you, don't lose heart, be strong-hearted. Sit down with the boss and have a heart-to-heart talk. Be open and honest about your situation. The boss may have a change of heart. Then you could stop worrying and put your heart at rest.
1.The main idea of this passage probably is .
A.to tell us how to express emotions with phrases with the word “heart”
B.to tell us that the heart is the center of emotions
C.to tell us some interesting phrases with the word “heart”
D.to tell us the importance of the correct use of phrases with the word “heart”
2.If you are fascinated(迷住了)by someone, we can say that you .
A.lose someone’s heart B.pour out your heart to someone
C.lose your heart to someone D.win someone’s heart
3.If someone has little courage, he or she may be described as .
A.hard-hearted B.a change of heart
C.strong-hearted D.chicken-hearted
4.You have been admitted(录取)into a famous university, and then you’ll .
A.have strong heart B.lose heart
C.put your heart at rest D.have a heart
