Did you ever heard about
Slangs, Idiomatic Expressions,
Idioms, Sayings or Proverbs?
They are all special way of people’s speaking that
transmits their wisdom, their culture and life experience.
Sometimes they are all mixed and confusing.
Idiomatic Expressions (or Idioms) are words or
expressions that don’t have to be translated literally. The
meaning of an idiomatic expression is very different from
the meaning of the words separately. For example: “The red
car caught my eye.” We know that car cannot grasp and
that eye cannot be launched. We need to understand the
meaning of the expression “caught my eye” to understand
what it is being said: “The red car is really wonderful!”
And there are many others like: “Hit to the roof”, “Raise to the roof”, “Get off the heels”, “It’s
raining cats and dogs”, etc.
Definition: To say negative things about someone or something.
Etymology: “Bad” means not good, and ‘mouth’ refers to the
physical act of speech.
bad mouth
Slang of the Day
Example:
1) Lisa bad-mouthed her boss at the water cooler.
2) I wish people would stop bad-mouthing Cleveland. It’s
really a very nice city.
Etymology: The ‘Web’ is the World Wide Web. As a verb, ‘surf’ means ‘to ride a board on
the waves of the ocean’. So this phrase suggests that the World Wide Web is like the ocean,
and looking at different Web sites is like riding across the ocean’s waves.
Definition: To look at Web sites on a computer.
Example:
1) I need to know some facts about Bolivia; maybe I’ll surf the Web and see
what I can find out.
2) Every night, my brother spends at least three hours surfing the Web.
surf the web

Slang is the use of highly informal words and expressions that are not considered standard
in the speaker’s dialect or language. It is very often specific to a particular context or group
as an entertaining language.
airhead
Slang of the Day
Definition: Someone who isn’t very smart; a stupid person.
Etymology: If your head is filled with air instead of brains, you probably can’t think very well.
Synonyms: ditz
Example:
1) Susan and Jim are such airheads — they love sports but they are failing
all of their classes at school!
2) I woudn’t ask Alaine for the answer — she’s an airhead!
pig out
Slang of the Day
Definition: To eat large amounts of food quickly and without good manners;
to overeat.
Etymology: Pigs are famous for enthusiastically eating enormous quantities of food. So
when a human ‘pigs out’, he or she is eating much like a pig.
Example:
1) The pizza is here ! Let’s pig out !
2) At the game, we pigged out on hamburgers and french fries.
ace
Slang of the Day
Definition: To do something very well, particularly an examination (verb);
first-rate (adjective), or an expert (noun).
Etymology: In World War I, a pilot who shot down five enemy planes was called an ‘ace’,
which is the powerful one card in a deck of playing cards. ‘Ace’ can be used as a verb (to do
well) or as an adjective (excellent, best) or as a noun (a nickname for someone who is good at
something, or for a good friend).
Example:
1) I’m going to ace this exam - I’ve been studying all week!
2) Lois Lane was the ace reporter for The Daily Planet — although she did
have a lot of trouble uncovering Superman’s identity!
166
Proverbs (or Sayings) are often repeated familiar and philosophical phrases or expressions
containing wisdom or truth, usually about social behavior.
It’s also common people write wise and intelligent phrases about feelings, attitudes or even
quote famous authors.
"Love is too young to know what conscience is.”
William Shakespeare
Life is too short
Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness
Laugh when you can
Apologize when you should
And let go of what you can’t change
Love deeply and forgive quickly
Take chances, give everything
And have no regrets
Life’s too short to be unhappy
You have to take good with the bad
Smile when you’re sad
Love what you got
And always remember what you had
Always forgive but never forget
Learn from your mistakes
But never regret
Because life goes on!
"Thinking is the hardest work there is,
wich is probably the reason why so few
engage in it."
Henry Ford
" Don't compare yourself with anyone in
this world. If you do so, you are insulting
yourself."
Allen Strike
"The early bird
catches the worm."
"A stitch in time
saves nine."
"Where there's a will
there's a way."
" An apple a day keeps the doctor away."

Unit 4: The Great Fright
I’m Jack and I need to tell you a
story. Yesterday there was a terrible
car accident in front of my house. It
was about 8:00 p.m. and I was reading
a book in my bedroom. My parents
weren’t at home. My little sister, Sally,
was sleeping and my brother, John,
was watching TV. My brother and I
hurried to the window to see what
was happening. Four or five people
were running to the cars. One of the
cars was on fire and there were two
men inside it. Happily, a rescue group
was passing by and they took the men out of the car. My brother and I didn’t do anything
because he is eight and I am only thirteen.

Uniforms are common in elementary, middle
and junior high school, according to the Federal
Department of Education. All students must wear
the prescribed school uniform all time. Uniforms
are always neat and clean. Neckties are worn
correctly and shirttails are tucked in. Nametags
are shown inside the uniform, so that will be easier to find it if lost. If a student is temporarily
unable to wear his/her uniform correctly, a note from parent/guardian is required explaining
the situation. This note is provided to the Year Coordinator who will provide the student with
a red slip (a small card to carry around explaining that the uniform infringement is temporarily
and explained). The school reserves the right to exclude students from participating in outside
excursions, visits and sporting activities if they are incorrectly dressed or have consistently
failed to abide by the Uniform Policy. Wearing the school uniform properly and having a
presentable appearance is a vital part of giving the right impression. It’s the responsibility
for every student, therefore to ensure that they stick to the regulations and do not the school
down.

Unit 5: Life in the Past
People have lived of different ways in the earth
through the years.
Most of these ancient people lived in small family
groups. Adults and children alike share the tasks of
daily life. They usually hunt to get food. Some of those
captured animals took hours to dig up and days to
cook on a hot rock cooking. They also ate wild plants
and meats from nature as grasses with seeds, trees
with nuts, and bushes with fruits (wild berries), smoky
sweet roots (or bulbs) of wild onion. They usually lived
in large openings in canyon walls or they built their
houses with grass, stone and an early type of cement.
Sometimes they used frame branches covered with
animals’ leather when they migrate. So they took part their houses to bring with them.
1. Can you imagine your life in the past? What are the advantages and disadvantages of living

The Christmas Tree
As early as 4,000 BC,
evergreen trees were used
during winter solstice as a
symbol of life, promissing
Spring’s return. In the 7th.
century Saint Boniface, na
English monk, was sent to
Germany to spread the word
of God. After spending a great
deal of time in Thuringia,
he chose to use the fir tree
as na analogy of the Holy
Trinity, with each corner of
the tree’s triangular shape
representing the Father,
the Son and the Holy
Spirit. Soon the fur tree
was regarded as God’s
tree. By the 17th.
century, the trees
were displayed every
Christmas to depict
the everlasting
hope of
mankind.

  • 1. 163 7º ANO “Courage is the ladder on which all the other virtues mount.” Clare Boothe Luce UNIT 1: The Power of Popular Wisdom ......................................... 164 UNIT 2: The Revolution of Technology ........................................... 169 UNIT 3: Paulista Avenue................................................................. 172 UNIT 4: The Great Fright ................................................................ 174 UNIT 5: Life In The Past ................................................................. 180 Celebration......................................................................... 186 Vocabulary......................................................................... 189
  • 2. 164 Did you ever heard about Slangs, Idiomatic Expressions, Idioms, Sayings or Proverbs? They are all special way of people’s speaking that transmits their wisdom, their culture and life experience. Sometimes they are all mixed and confusing. Idiomatic Expressions (or Idioms) are words or expressions that don’t have to be translated literally. The meaning of an idiomatic expression is very different from the meaning of the words separately. For example: “The red car caught my eye.” We know that car cannot grasp and that eye cannot be launched. We need to understand the meaning of the expression “caught my eye” to understand what it is being said: “The red car is really wonderful!” And there are many others like: “Hit to the roof”, “Raise to the roof”, “Get off the heels”, “It’s raining cats and dogs”, etc. Definition: To say negative things about someone or something. Etymology: “Bad” means not good, and ‘mouth’ refers to the physical act of speech. bad mouth Slang of the Day Example: 1) Lisa bad-mouthed her boss at the water cooler. 2) I wish people would stop bad-mouthing Cleveland. It’s really a very nice city. Etymology: The ‘Web’ is the World Wide Web. As a verb, ‘surf’ means ‘to ride a board on the waves of the ocean’. So this phrase suggests that the World Wide Web is like the ocean, and looking at different Web sites is like riding across the ocean’s waves. Definition: To look at Web sites on a computer. Example: 1) I need to know some facts about Bolivia; maybe I’ll surf the Web and see what I can find out. 2) Every night, my brother spends at least three hours surfing the Web. surf the web Slang of the Day Unit 1: The Power of Popular Wisdom Learning More
  • 3. 165 Slang is the use of highly informal words and expressions that are not considered standard in the speaker’s dialect or language. It is very often specific to a particular context or group as an entertaining language. airhead Slang of the Day Definition: Someone who isn’t very smart; a stupid person. Etymology: If your head is filled with air instead of brains, you probably can’t think very well. Synonyms: ditz Example: 1) Susan and Jim are such airheads — they love sports but they are failing all of their classes at school! 2) I woudn’t ask Alaine for the answer — she’s an airhead! pig out Slang of the Day Definition: To eat large amounts of food quickly and without good manners; to overeat. Etymology: Pigs are famous for enthusiastically eating enormous quantities of food. So when a human ‘pigs out’, he or she is eating much like a pig. Example: 1) The pizza is here ! Let’s pig out ! 2) At the game, we pigged out on hamburgers and french fries. ace Slang of the Day Definition: To do something very well, particularly an examination (verb); first-rate (adjective), or an expert (noun). Etymology: In World War I, a pilot who shot down five enemy planes was called an ‘ace’, which is the powerful one card in a deck of playing cards. ‘Ace’ can be used as a verb (to do well) or as an adjective (excellent, best) or as a noun (a nickname for someone who is good at something, or for a good friend). Example: 1) I’m going to ace this exam - I’ve been studying all week! 2) Lois Lane was the ace reporter for The Daily Planet — although she did have a lot of trouble uncovering Superman’s identity!
  • 4. 166 Proverbs (or Sayings) are often repeated familiar and philosophical phrases or expressions containing wisdom or truth, usually about social behavior. It’s also common people write wise and intelligent phrases about feelings, attitudes or even quote famous authors. "Love is too young to know what conscience is.” William Shakespeare Life is too short Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness Laugh when you can Apologize when you should And let go of what you can’t change Love deeply and forgive quickly Take chances, give everything And have no regrets Life’s too short to be unhappy You have to take good with the bad Smile when you’re sad Love what you got And always remember what you had Always forgive but never forget Learn from your mistakes But never regret Because life goes on! "Thinking is the hardest work there is, wich is probably the reason why so few engage in it." Henry Ford " Don't compare yourself with anyone in this world. If you do so, you are insulting yourself." Allen Strike "The early bird catches the worm." "A stitch in time saves nine." "Where there's a will there's a way." " An apple a day keeps the doctor away."

  • 17. 179 Uniforms are common in elementary, middle and junior high school, according to the Federal Department of Education. All students must wear the prescribed school uniform all time. Uniforms are always neat and clean. Neckties are worn correctly and shirttails are tucked in. Nametags are shown inside the uniform, so that will be easier to find it if lost. If a student is temporarily unable to wear his/her uniform correctly, a note from parent/guardian is required explaining the situation. This note is provided to the Year Coordinator who will provide the student with a red slip (a small card to carry around explaining that the uniform infringement is temporarily and explained). The school reserves the right to exclude students from participating in outside excursions, visits and sporting activities if they are incorrectly dressed or have consistently failed to abide by the Uniform Policy.
