These idioms are good at expressing how we feel because our emotional and physical states are often linked. Cold feet When someone says they are getting cold feet, they might not be complaining about chilly toes. Rather, they could be telling you that they suddenly feel nervous about doing something important and are thinking of backing out. You might get cold feet right before speaking in front of a large group of people, for example. This phrase is also often used to describe someone as having second thoughts just before their wedding. Cold shoulder It’s not only feet that get cold in body idioms because shoulders do, too. If you want someone to leave you alone, give them the cold shoulder. It’s easy to snub someone when you turn your back and shoulders to them. We call the shoulder “cold” because ignoring someone is a pretty unfriendly thing to do. 我們都聽過肢體語言，一種非語言的交流，但身體及其部位也以慣用語的形式包含在英語口語中。這些慣用語能清楚表達我們的感受，因為我們的情緒和身體狀態常常互有關連。 cold feet 臨陣退縮 當某人說他們「雙腳冰冷」，可能不是在抱怨腳趾頭很冷，而是可能在告訴你，他們對於要做某件重要的事突然感到緊張，並且想要打退堂鼓。舉例來說，你在一大群人面前說話前可能會臨陣退縮。這個片語也常用來描述某人就在婚禮前夕改變主意。 cold shoulder 冷漠；態度冷淡 在身體慣用語中不只有腳會冷，因為肩膀也會。如果你要某人別煩你，就冷落他們吧。當你轉身背對別人就很容易冷落他們。我們稱肩膀「冷」是因為忽視別人是很不友善的事。 8/30 One’s lips are sealed To convince someone they can trust you with their secret, you could tell them that your lips are sealed. This common idiom is similar to miming zipping your mouth shut. It is a promise not to reveal whatever they tell you to others. After all, it’s hard to talk when your mouth is closed. All ears If your friend has some juicy gossip, you can say that you’re all ears. This expression means you’re eager to hear what they have to say. It also comes in handy when you want to show that you’re willing to give someone your full attention and listen carefully. Cross one’s fingers In the course of life, it’s important to keep one’s hopes up. If someone is crossing their fingers, they’re wishing that something will go their way. As a student, you might cross your fingers that you do well on an exam. We’ll keep our fingers crossed that you won’t get cold feet about using our body idioms in real life. If you do, don’t worry. We won’t give you the cold shoulder. one’s lips are sealed 守口如瓶 為了讓某人相信他們可以信任你會保守祕密，你可以告訴他們你會「守口如瓶」。這個常見的慣用語像是在模仿把嘴巴的拉鍊拉上。這是承諾不會把任何他們告訴你的事透漏給別人。畢竟，當你嘴巴閉上了就很難說話。 all ears 洗耳恭聽 如果朋友有一些精彩有趣的小道消息，你可以說你會洗耳恭聽。這個說法表示你很渴望聽他們要說的事。當你想表現出你很樂意全神貫注、仔細聆聽時，這個說法也可以派上用場。 cross one’s fingers 祈求好運 在一生中，保持希望是很重要的。如果有人在祈求好運，他們希望是事情能照他們想要的方式發展。身為學生，你可能會祈求考試可以考好。 我們會祈求你在現實生活中使用身體慣用語時不會臨陣退縮。若是你退縮了也別擔心。我們不會不理你的。
