I've got a bottle of beer, but I haven't got anything______I can open it with.

People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. They use many expressions with the word "dog". Here are some examples: Some people say we live in a "dog-eat-dog world", which means many people are competing for the same thing. They also say that a person has to "work like a dog" if he wants to succeed, so "work like a dog" here means "work very hard". Besides, people say "Every dog has its day." This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. If a man tells you that he is "in the doghouse", he might have been punished by his wife. However, the husband may decide that it is best to leave things alone and not to cause more trouble. He might decide to "let sleeping dogs lie". Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. "The dog days of summer" refers to the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather, but to "rain cats and dogs" is not what we want.

December 1 Dear Mr. Dias, Further to your letter of 22 November, I am very happy to say that we are now in a position to confirm our participation in the Sao Paulo Trade Fair(圣保罗商品交易会). We would be very grateful if you could send us a plan of the exhibition hall and indicate which areas are still available and the respective prices. We would like to participate for all four days of the fair and estimate that we would need a display area of approximately 100- 120 square meters. I will be able to confirm this information once I have received your plan and price schedule. I would also be very grateful for any information on the expected visitor number and on your marketing campaign. This information would be invaluable in fixing our budget for the exhibition. We are quite keen to move quickly on this and secure the best display area available. Therefore, I would very much appreciate a quick reply from you. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Yours sincerely, Oscar Cornell Marketing Manager

Colors are sometimes called hot, cold, or neutral(中性的). Red and yellow are said to be hot colors because they make a room warmer and the walls nearer to us than they really are. We say that blue and green are cold because they give us the opposite feeling. A neutral color is one that does not seem to affect our feelings. Brown and grey are both neutral, and they may also be mixed with hot or cold colors to reduce their effect on our feelings. We can begin to see the importance of color selection. Although red might be perfect for a restaurant, it would be wrong for an art exhibition room, where we want to look at the paintings, not the walls behind. Because of its effect on size, white could be used to make a small room seem larger, or dark blue to make a large one seem smaller. Another way that we sometimes speak of a color is to say that it is loud or quiet. Again we are talking about the feeling that the color gives us. We use sound to express how much the color catches our attention.
