Have you ever won by a nose? Or maybe you’ve found yourself on the ropes?

If you did, then you were using sports idioms.

With sports playing a central role in the United States, it’s no     16     that the Americans use sports-related sayings to describe their     17     lives. Let’s  take a look.

The sport of horseracing     18     a range of sayings. A close race is won by the horse whose nose is the

first to cross the finish line. To win by a nose has grown to mean “to succeed by the smallest possible margin( 差 距 ).”     19    , a winning horse is the first horse to show as crossing under a cord( 绳 子 ) or a wire that is stretched ( 伸 展 ) above the finish line. Down to the wire means “not decided until the last minute.” The last section of a horserace is called the home stretch. The home stretch has come to mean “the final stage of an activity.” And if a racehorse is far ahead in a race and clearly going to win, the jockey (赛马的骑师) will sometimes relax and lower his tight grip on the reins (缰绳). From that we get win hands down, which means “win easily.”

A．between      B．willing to      C． failure      D．also       E. looking forward to

Boxing also has given some colorful phrases. The boxing ring’s square shape gives us the phrase to square off, meaning “to prepare for competition.” A boxer who competes in every round in a boxing match is described as going the distance. That phrase     20     means “completing a task.” A boxer’s corner man stands outside his corner and assists him    21     rounds. Today, someone who is in your corner  is someone who is “ready and     22       help” you. A boxer who needs to  hang onto the boxing ring’s ropes to stay on his feet is probably losing the match. On the ropes today describes a situation in which someone is “doing badly and headed toward     23    .” And if a trainer is concerned that continuing a boxing match will only result in serious injuries to his boxer, he can throw a towel or a sponge into the ring. It is a signal to the referee that he wants to end the fight.  Throw in the towel means “give up” or “admit defeat.”
