Idioms and Analogies are the jewels of the western world. The source may be traced back to Shakespeare, Homer, Aesop’s Fables, The Bible, and modern fictions. Comprehending the history and stories behind these phrases will increase the capability of advanced vocabularies and writing skill. After this workshop, I hope my students will:
1. Get to know 75-100 idioms, analogies, and terms most frequently used in English news.
2. Grasp their historical connotation, extended meaning, and modern application.
3. Know how to use these phrases in appropriate context and news writing.
4. Increase reading and writing capabilities; enrich cultural understanding.
5. Improve English listening comprehension and speaking ability.
