English is full of funny expressions that don't always make sense.Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say.Even if you know the meaning of each word，you may not understand the idiom because you don't understand the culture behind it.Here are some English idioms based on animals.
   When children jump around and act silly，their parents may tell them to stop "monkeying around".To "monkey around" means to do things that are not useful or serious，or to simply waste time.
   Many American families have and love pet dogs.But for some unknown reason，Americans use "dog" in a phrase that means to feel unwell.If you are "as sick as a dog"，you're really，really sick.
   Sometimes you may also hear cats mentioned in conversations，"I told you to keep that secret，but you have just 'let the cat out of the bag'!" You probably guessed it—that idiom means to reveal a secret or tell facts that were previously unknown.
   Dogs and cats don't always get along，but they appear side by side in a commonly used idiom.When it rains heavily，people might say it's "raining cats and dogs".
   Heavy rain often ruins people's plans for outdoor activities.But on a lovely day，you can have a picnic.If a swarm （一群）of tiny bugs love your food and start to hover （盤(pán)旋）around you，it would be really annoying.That experience perfectly explains why people often tell someone who keeps bothering them to "stop bugging me".
   Idioms are very common in both spoken and written English.If you want to have a better understanding of English，you have to learn idioms.

Cyber language is popular among Chinese netizens，who create Chinglish words to reflect phenomenon in society．One example is"antizen"，which refers to college graduates who earn a meager salary and live in small rented apartments，like tiny and laborious ants．

2．If you want to express something so unbelievable that it must have been a special effect，you have a new word to add to your vocabulary．
It's"Duang"，an onomatopoetic （擬聲詞） word which doesn't relate to any particular Chinese character and refers to a special effect．
A video parody （惡搞） adapted from a shampoo commercial featuring Hong Kong actor Jackie Chan spread quickly online，leading Internet users to invent the new word．
The video begins with Chan flashing his black，smooth hair，which would have been perfect except that it was not his real hair．
Next，a self-satisfied Chan admits，to the repetitive，rhythmical sounds of"Duang"，"I refused to approve of this product when they first came to me because of my thin hair，but the director insisted，saying special effects could be used to make my hair look healthy on the screen．Now you see，it's all special effects．It's not real．"
The original advertisement became the target of punishment by the government for over-spreading the effects of the shampoo after it was broadcast in 2004．
"Duang"has now become one of the hottest topics on Sina Weibo，a Twitter-like Chinese social network site among those crazy ones imitating Jackie Chan's speech in different situations．
The actor's Weibo account was flooded with comments containing the word in this sweeping online trend．
The video came at a time when the famous movie star has been under public attention after trying to save the ill image of his son，Jaycee Chan，who was released from prison this week．
Data from Baidu，the major Chinese search engine，also proved the phrase's popularity as it has been searched more than 586，000 times within two days．
The word of geili's sudden rise in 2010 caught the attention of international media when it made up for the word's official translation-geilivable-to describe something cool or awesome．
It's not the first time that online word has become a regular vocabulary in China．

（1）From the passage we know that the word"Duang"was originally made

．
A．by some crazy Internet users
B．to refer to a kind of product
C．by Hong Kong actor Jackie Chan
D．to express some special meaning
（2）From the passage we know that the new word"geili"is

．

A．only popular in China B．a(chǎn) cool and awesome word

C．used by ordinary people D．a(chǎn)lso widely used abroad

（3）What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage？

A．To tell us online words have enriched Chinese vocabulary．
B．To teach all the Internet users how to invent new words．
C．To explain how Jackie Chan invented the popular word．
D．To urge people to fight against the false advertisements．

3．Sweetest Day is always the third Saturday in October.This holiday is much more important in some regions than in others（Detroit，Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest Sweetest Day cities）.It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity throughout the country.
   Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy.It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick，aged and orphaned，but also friends，relatives and associates whose help and kindness we have enjoyed.
   Many years ago，a Cleveland man，believing that the city's orphans and shut-ins often felt forgotten and neglected，formed the idea of showing them that they were remembered.He did this through the distribution of small gifts.With the help of his friends and neighbors，he distributed these remembrances on a Saturday in October.During the years that followed，other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony，which came to be called "Sweetest Day".In time，the Sweetest Day's idea of spreading cheer to the poor was broadened to include everyone，and the day became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift.And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country.
   Sweetest Day is not based on any single group's interests or on a family relationship.It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift-giving，Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care about them，in a practical way.
