More problems can develop if a person looks down his nose at someone or something.The person acts like something is unimportant or worthless.This person might also turn up his nose at something that he considers not good enough.This person thinks he is better than everyone else.He has his nose in the air.
In school,some students thumb their nose at their teacher.They refuse to obey orders or do any work.Maybe these students do not know the correct answers.My mother always told me,if you study hard,the answers should be right under your nose or easily seen.
I think we have explained the nose expressions.What about ears? Well,I hope you are all ears or very interested in hearing more expressions.We might even put a bug in your ear or give you an idea about something.We also advise you to keep your ear to the ground.This means to be interested in what is happening around you and what people are thinking.
If you are a good person,you will lend an ear to your friends.You will listen to them when they have a problem they need to talk about.
