  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

I didn’t really see him very much, hardly at all until the ‘80s and then I kind of reconnected with him in the ‘90s and we were social friends. I played golf with him. He’d been to my house several times in the ‘90s. Michael E. Miller (Washington Post): This one here or -- Brant: No. Miller: Connecticut? Brant: No, I’d been to Mar-a-Lago, not a member there but my sister is. I was a member of the golf course that he has here in Palm Beach but only because it was a corporate membership. And my partner at that time, who is my cousin, who’d been my partner for many, many years and whose father was my father’s partner, loves to play golf and he was a member. So I might have played there twice in my life, you know. So there’s no real connection then.

MEMORY VERSE: Psalm 5:12 12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. TEXT: LUKE 1:26-30. (A)INTRODUCTION: Favour is a friendly and excessive kindness shown towards another especially by a superior. A special privilege granted out of goodwill, preferential treatment. Favour with God is what we need to succeed in every aspect of life. It means turning our difficult and impossible situations to opportunities and blessings for His glory. Favour can make a big difference in your life, family, academics, business and projects. The good news today is that God’s favour has been extended to the Church and hence we are God’s covenant children for His Divine favour. (B)EXAMPLES OF GOD’S DIVINE FAVOUR : Describe favour as displayed in the life of the following people. Esther (Esth. 2: 15-17) ; David (1st Samuel 16: 11-13); Jabez (1 Chron 4: 9-10); Pool of Bethesda’s man (John 17: 1-15) .

(b) Can favour be attracted? 1Pet 2:9-10 .( c) Which people are being referred here as favoured? (d) What will qualify you to be among them?

Hiro Nakamura 4 AGRADECIMENTOS No momento em que optamos por fazer este trabalho juntas, não imaginávamos o cansaço, as descobertas, o aprendizado e a satisfação que teríamos. Foi um longo ano, de leituras densas, discussões acaloradas e momentos de descanso assistindo a todos os seriados em que podíamos colocar as mãos. Por isto, antes de mais nada, temos que agradecer uma a outra, pois sabemos que o trabalho não teria sido tão divertido se não fôssemos uma dupla. Sabemos também que nosso trabalho não foi feito por duas pessoas, e sim por três: sem o apoio, o carinho, a atenção e o conhecimento de nossa professora e orientadora, Carmem, ainda estaríamos perdidas imaginando o que fazer com nossas ideias, pressupostos e hipóteses. Agradecemos aos nossos namorados, Júlio e Bruno, que, mesmo do outro lado do Atlântico (os dois!), tiveram paciência com as oscilações de humor, o olhar vidrado na tela do computador e as conversas monotemáticas, e ainda acharam tempo para ajudar em milhares processos de revisão.
