   办公室搬新家,大伙儿都卷起袖子分工合作。业务部经理George老先生也兴致匆匆地想来帮忙打包。可是,他才搬了几下就气喘吁吁的喊暂停。他自我解嘲地说:“Who am I kidding? I am not' Spring 1 chicken‘!”


  春天的鸡?我好奇的问旁边的台湾同事Cindy:“他们老美也排十二生肖呀?那么George不是属鸡的了?”
  Cindy笑着回答我说:“你弄错了,’spring chicken‘就是我们一般所说的’童子鸡‘。这句话是指,他不再年轻,没有当年的体力了,跟十二生肖没有关系。”
  be ,no (spring) `chicken (idm 习语) (infml 口) (esp of women) be no longer young (尤指女子)已不年
