下载音频我们已经讲过两个以feather这个字为主的习惯用语.我们今天再来给大家讲两个以feather这个字为主的习惯用语.第一个是：As light as a feather.Light这个字有好几个解释,在这里是用做形容词.意思是：轻,也就是份量很轻的轻.Feather就是羽毛.羽毛的份量确实是很轻的.As light as a feather那末顾名思义就是：像羽毛那样轻.我们来举一个例子.这是一个人在说他当天所碰到的事.例句-1:While I was on my way to the law office at noon,the girl who was walking in front of me suddenly fainted because of the heat.Since she is as light as a feather,I had no problem in carrying her all the way to the hospital.这个人说：今天中午在我去律师事务所的路上,那个走在我前面的女孩子由于天太热而突然晕倒了.因为她的身体非常轻,所以我一口气就把她背到了医院,一点也不感到累.美国中小学教师的工作也是很辛苦的.同时,各方面对中小学教育的水准批评甚多.这就更加重了对教师的压力.可是,尽管如此,还是有不少教师兢兢业业地工作,了解每个学生的情况,做出了很大的成就.下面就是一个被选为当年最佳教师的人在发表感想.例句4:I like my work as a teacher and I enjoy working with the kids.True,I worked very hard for the past year,but I certainly didn't expect to be elected best teacher of the year.It's really a feather in my cap!他说：我很喜欢教师的工作,我也很喜欢和孩子们在一起.是的,我去年工作很努力,不过,我并没有期望被选为今年的最佳老师.这对我来说实在是很大的荣誉.
