Let's see where they came from. The Blues The phrase is a short form of “the blue devils", which also stands for sad feelings. This expression is also used to describe a type of jazz music that became popular in the south of America in the 1940s. Black Sheep of the Family The phrase refers to a member of a family or a group who is unacceptable. In the old days, the black sheep were sold at a lower price than the white ones at the market, because their fleeces (羊毛) could not be coloured. This made the black sheep an unwelcome member of the group. A Red-letter Day A Red-letter Day is a day when something really exciting and memorable(难忘的) happens. It came from the practice of marking special Western days, holidays, or other festivals in red or the calendar. Today some calendars still use red numbers for special holidays, even weekends. Green with Envy Writers such as Shakespeare in the 16th century used the colour green to stand for envy, but it was the Greeks who connected it with sickness caused by envy. When a person was full of envy, his or her body produced too much bile(胆汁),giving his or her skin a greenish colour. That is green with envy. In a Brown Study The phrase came from a book called Dice-Play. It means you are very involved in your own thoughts and not paying attention to anything else. The earliest expression of the word "brown" was equivalent to(相当于) the word “gloomy”,and “study” could mean “a state of reverie(幻想 or contemplation( 沉思)". As time went on, people came to use this phrase to mean that someone is lost in thought. 根据短文内容回答下列问题。 1. How many colours are mentioned in this passage? ________________________________________ 2.
