　　1.Bite the bullet

　　據說19世紀早期，麻醉劑還沒有普及，病人或士兵在做手術的時候，只能咬一顆子彈來忍痛，“bite the bullet”的說法就源於此，意思是強迫自己做不喜歡的事兒，或是是渡過難關。 18世紀末期有個類似的說法“chew a bullet”。

　　eg：I don't really want to exercise today, but I'll bite the bulletandgo for a run.

　　今天我真不想鍛鍊，但是，還是勉強跑跑吧。

　　2.Pigs might fly

　　豬是不會飛的，所以這個說法用來形容永遠不會發生的事兒。用來諷刺一個人的話不可信。 eg：-I might clean my bedroom tomorrow.

　　明天我可能會打掃一下我的臥室哦。

　　-Yes, and pigs might fly.恩，豬都會飛啦!***太陽打西邊出來啦!***

　　3.Bob's your uncle

　　就算你的叔叔不叫Bob，你也會經常聽到這個習語，表示已完成某事或者成功搞定某事。另一種說法"„and that's that"。

　　eg：You're looking for the station? Take a left, then the first right and Bob's your uncle – you're there!你在找車站在哪兒嗎?向左轉，然後右邊第一個就是，你就看到了!

　　4.Dead ringer

　　這個短語表示一件東西像是另一件東西的復刻品，主要是說一個人長得像另一個人。這個說法源於很久以前，相傳有些人被判定死亡，下葬之後發現TA並沒有真正死亡，這就比較尷尬了，所以人們為了避免這種情況，就在被安葬人的手指上系一根繩子，另一端拴在墳墓旁的一個鈴鐺上，如果那個人醒來，就會拉響鈴鐺。所以dead ringer就代表著被安葬的那個人。

　　eg：That guy over there is a dead ringer for my ex-boyfriend.

　　那個人長得太像我前男友了。

　　5.Off the back of a lorry

　　這個短語是說買的東西有可能是偷來的，或表示某人出售偷來or非法得來的東西。也可以用來開玩笑：你買的東西這麼便宜，一定是別人偷的拿出來賣。

　　eg：I can't believe these shoes were so cheap – they must have fallen off the back of a lorry. 真不敢相信這鞋這麼便宜——偷來的吧。
