B
I had learned English for 11 years, but I knew few English idioms (习语). When I went to study in America last year, I had trouble communicating with Americans at times.
One day, I asked my roommate Kevin, “Shall we play soccer tomorrow?” He answered, “Let’s play it by ear.” I was so puzzled (迷惑的). “Ear can play soccer?” I asked. He explained, “It means let’s see how things go. The weather report says tomorrow is rainy.”
Last October, I was waiting for the bus in a station. Beside me sat a young man. When he knew I was Chinese, he asked me something about the Great Wall. I told him, “The Great Wall is more than 20, 000 kilometers long.” The man said, “You don’t say.” I was surprised. “There must be something wrong with him,” I thought. Later, I knew he meant “Really?”
I was once invited to my classmate’s home. His mother said to me, “Break your ice, please.” I wondered, “You didn’t give me any ice.” Later my classmate told me she meant I could make myself relaxed in their home.
From then on, I realized English idioms had special meanings. It was wrong to translate them word by word.

Small children often laugh at (嘲笑；取笑) the short ones or someone who isn’t dressed as well as they are. But as they grow up, they learn not to hurt people’s feelings by laughing at their problems. They learn to laugh at other things. Most importantly, they learn to laugh at themselves.
Suppose (假设) you’re playing a game. You make a mistake and lose. Do you become angry? Or can you laugh at yourself and hope to do better next time? Suppose you are at a special dinner. You at times spill (溅) some food. Why do you keep worrying about how clumsy (笨拙) you look? Why not laugh it off and enjoy yourself anyway? If you can, it’s a good sign you’ve really grown up.
