Mary didn't understand such sentences as " He is blue today", "He has a green thumb", "He has told
a little white lie" and so on. And she went to her teacher for help.
Mary: Mrs Smith, there is a colour in each of these sentences. What do they mean?
Mrs Smith: In everyday English, blue sometimes means sad. Yellow---afraid. A person with a green
thumb grows plants well. And a white lie is not a bad one.
Mary: Would you give me an example for " a white lie"?
Mrs Smith: Certainly. Now I give you some cakes. In fact you don't like it, but you won't say it.
Instead, you say, " No, thanks. I'm not hungry." That's a white lie.
Mary: Oh, I see. Thank you very much. |
