There are many expressions that use vegetables and fruits. For example, a cucumber is a long, green vegetable that people eat in salads. You might say a person is as cool as a cucumber if he never seems to worry about anything and stays calm in a stressful situation.

If two people are very similar, you might say they are like two peas in a pod. There are several expressions about beans. If someone is very energetic, you might say she is full of beans. If you say something does not amount to a hill of beans, you mean it is of little importance. I might say you don't know beans about a subject if you do not know anything at all about it. But if you spill the beans, you tell something that was supposed to be a secret.

Potatoes are a popular food in many areas. But something is considered small potatoes if it is not important. You probably would not want to hold a hot potato in your empty hands. This also means a problem or an issue that no one wants to deal with. Someone might call you a couch potato if you sit and watch television all day and get little or no physical exercise.

Finally, let us talk about lemons. Lemons have a sour taste if you eat them plain. But lemons make a nice drink when you mix their juice with sugar and water. So here is an expression about lemons that we like: If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. This means you should always try to make the best of a bad situation.

1.Who are most probably described as two peas in a pod?

A. Lovers. B. Partners. C. Deskmates. D. Twins.

2.If one knows nothing about the project you are working on, we can say he___________ about it.

A. doesn't know beans B. makes lemonade C. holds a hot potato D. is as cool as a cucumber

3."A couch potato" refers to people who __________.

A. are of little importance B. get little or no physical exercise

C. are interested in TV programs D. have difficult problems to deal with
