Old chestnut 栗子老了？

　　下面是一个例句。这是一个爸爸对女儿说话。他的女儿正准备去上大学，还想参加女子篮球队。

　　例句-2：Barbara, think seriously about trying out for the basketball team. In high school your team went to the final for the state championship and if you make the old college try, I am sure the coach will pick you for the team.

　　芭芭拉，你好好想一想加入篮球队的事。在中学的时候，你们的球队在州内比赛时，最后参加了决赛。要是你尽最大努力的话，我肯定教练会挑中你参加球队。

　　3. comfortable as an old shoe 令人轻松愉快的

　　Comfortable在中文里的意思就是舒服;shoe大家知道就是一只鞋子。要是你有一双鞋子，虽然已经穿得很旧，但是因为你穿得很合脚让你感到很舒服，所以你还是很喜欢它。你大概可以猜到这个习惯用语的意思了吧。Comfortable as an old shoe就是指你已经很熟悉的人或一样东西，因此让你感到很放松很自如。我们来举个例子，例句里说话的人在讲多年来住在他隔壁的邻居。

　　例句-3：Joe is a good neighbor, as comfortable as an old shoe. He is always cheerful and friendly and on summer evenings, we like just sitting around on his porch, enjoying the fresh air.
