Idioms make language more colourful and expressive.
Every language has its idioms, which are groups of words with meanings different from the meanings of the individual words. Idioms make language more colourful and expressive. Since sport is an inseparable part of day-to-day life, there are lots of sports idioms that have found their way into everyday language. Let’s take a look at some of them!
每种语言都有自己的习语。习语是一组词汇，它的意思不同于每个单独的词。习语让语言更为丰富多彩、更具表现力。由于体育运动是日常生活中不可缺失的一部分，许多体育习语也已融入人们的日常语言。让我们来看看其中几个吧！

Idioms in Part Ⅱ(Para.2-4)
Football
Football (or soccer, as it is called in the USA) is one of the most popular sports in the world and many
countries have their own football leagues. The English language is full of idioms which are thought to have come from football.
足球（football，在美国又叫 soccer），是世界上最受欢迎的体育运动之一，许多国家都有自己的足球联赛。英语中有许多习语被认为源自足球。
As you know, in a football match, players try to kick or head the ball into the opposing team’s goal, which is the net between two big goalposts fixed to the ground. Can you imagine that every time you have a chance to score, the goalposts are moved That would be not only difficult, but also upsetting. If someone “moves the goalposts”in everyday life, it means they unfairly change the rules or requirements for something. An insurance salesman who is about to reach his annual sales target, only for the company to make the target higher, could rightly complain about the company moving the goalposts.
如你所知，在一场足球比赛中，球员们试图将球踢进或顶进对方球队的球门，也就是固定在地上的两根粗大门柱之间的那张网。你能想象，每次你有机会进球时，门柱却被移动了吗？那样的情形不仅难以应对，而且令人沮丧。如果在日常生活中有人 move the goalposts（移动门柱），意味着这些人不公正地改变了某件事情的规则或要求。如果一位保险销售员就快达到年度销售目标了，而公司却在这时提高了销售目标，那么他就可以正当地抱怨公司 move the goalposts。
Thankfully, goalposts do not really move—but when a player scores an own goal, he or she might wish they did.“Scoring an own goal”in football means accidentally kicking or heading the ball into one’s own net, and it is one of the worst things that can happen to a football player. If someone makes a bad mistake which unintentionally harms their own interests, they are said to have scored an own goal. You might see this expression in the newspapers when the local council makes a decision which backfires terribly!
谢天谢地，门柱并不会真的移动——但是当一名球员 score an own goal（进乌龙球）时，他（她）说不定会希望球门真能移动。在足球中，进乌龙球的意思是不小心将球踢进或顶进了自己队的球门，而这是一名球员所能遇到的最糟糕的情况之一。如果有人犯下了无意中损害自身利益的严重错误，那么人们就会说，这样的人是在进乌龙球。当地方议会作出了一项决策，结果却适得其反时，你也许就会在报纸上看到这个说法！
(1)Which of the following can be seen as an act of “moving the goalposts”
A. To change the target in the process.
B. To stick to the rules or requirements.
C. To fix two big goalposts to the ground.
D. To head the ball into the opposing team’s goal.
(2)If a player scores an own goal, he or she is sure to feel　　　.
A. very excited　　　　　　　 B. unconcerned
C. a little delighted D. very disappointed
in the ballpark
/a ballpark estimate
throw someone a
curveball
three strikes and you are out
Three idioms are mentioned
Idioms in Part Ⅱ(Para.5-6)
roughly estimating
things that are unexpected and difficult to respond to
situations where you miss three chances
Baseball
Baseball is an old and popular sport that has given the English language many different idioms. You might have heard expressions like “in the ballpark” or “a ballpark estimate”. The venue where a baseball game is played is called a ballpark. So, even if we do not know exactly where the ball is during the game, we can assume that it is somewhere in the ballpark. For this reason, people use the expression“in the ballpark” or “a ballpark estimate”to talk about rough estimates.
棒球是一项古老而广受欢迎的体育运动，它也为英语提供了许多不同的习语。你也许听过 in the ballpark（在棒球场里）或是 a ballpark estimate（一个棒球场的估计）这样的说法。进行棒球比赛的场地被称为棒球场（ballpark）。因此，即便我们在棒球比赛中并不知道球的准确位置，我们仍然可以认定它就在球场内的某处。为此，人们会用 in the ballpark 或者 a ballpark estimate 这样的说法来谈论粗略的估计。
Another common baseball expression is “throwing someone a curveball”. Curveballs are balls that suddenly turn in the air, and these are of course difficult for the other team to handle. We use this expression to describe things that are unexpected and difficult to respond to.“Three strikes and you are out” is another idiom that comes from baseball. As it suggests, in baseball this means that a batter (the person with the baseball bat in his or her hands) is out after making three unsuccessful attempts to hit the ball. This idiom is often used to talk about situations where people fail after wasting three chances.
另一个常见的棒球相关说法是 throw someone a curveball（给某人扔一个曲线球）。曲线球（curveball）是指能在空中突然转向的球，而这种球必然会让对方球队难以应付。我们用这个说法来形容那些出乎意料又难以应对的事情。three strikes and you are out（三振出局）是另一个来自棒球的习语。正如字面意思所说，三振出局在棒球运动中指的是击球手（手持棒球球棒的人）如果连续三次未能击中，就会出局。这个习语经常用于谈论某人错失三次良机后失败的情况。
(1)Which expressions are mentioned
A.“Sit on the fence ”and “Masterpiece.
B.“in the ballpark”and“a ballpark estimate”
C.“Scoring an own goal”and “in the ballpark”
(2) Which expression can be used to talk about rough estimates
A. In the ballpark.
B. Hitting below the belt.
C. Three strikes and you are out.
(3)Which situation can be described by using the idiom “Three strikes and you are out”？
A. It is the third time that you have succeeded in scoring.
B. You lose three points in a baseball match.
C. It is the third time that you have failed in a job interview.
Two idioms are mentioned
below the belt
throw in the towel
Idioms in Part Ⅱ(Para.7-8)
1. A boxer is not allowed to use his or her fists to hit the opponent below the waist. Therefore someone makes an unfair and cruel remark, we can describe it as “_____________________”.2. Sport is challenging and so is life. However, when you are thrown a curveball, do not __________________ (投降，放弃) —— work hard, be careful not to score an own goal, and you are sure to make it!
below the belt
throw in the towel
Boxing
English also has a large number of idioms connected with boxing, which has been a popular sport for thousands of years. A boxer is not allowed to use his
or her fists to hit the opponent below the waist. Hence comes the idiom“below the belt”. In day-to-day life, if someone makes an unfair and cruel remark, we can describe it as“below the belt”.
英语中也有大量习语与拳击有关，这是一项数千年来一直很受欢迎的运动。拳击手不允许用拳头击打对手腰部以下的部位。因此有了 below the belt（腰部以下，意为不正当的、伤人的）这个习语。在日常生活中，如果有人发表了有失公允的刻薄评论，我们就可以形容这种评论是 below the belt。
“Throwing in the towel”is another common idiom that comes from boxing. When a boxer is losing badly and is too tired or confused to give up on his or her own, the coach will literally throw a towel into the ring to end the fight. In everyday life, this idiom simply means admitting defeat and giving up.
Sport is challenging and so is life. However, when you are thrown a curveball, do not throw in the towel—work hard, be careful not to score an own goal, and you are sure to make it!
throw in the towel（扔毛巾）是另一个来自拳击的常用习语。当一名拳击手输得很惨，并且因太过疲惫或思维太混乱而无法自己宣告放弃时，教练就会真的扔一条毛巾到擂台上，示意结束对抗。在日常生活中，这个习语就是“承认失败，放弃”的意思。
体育运动充满了挑战，生活同样也是如此。然而，当你接到一个曲线球时，不要放弃——努力奋斗，注意别进乌龙球，你就一定会成功！
3. I think if someone wants to criticize me, they should focus on my work. Mentioning my past problem is ___________________.
