Collection of : http://jauhari-englishhomework.blogspot.com/ eg;
She was the apple of his eyes(darling)
He is fishing for compliments.
He is a regular wet blanket (a depressing influence)
To give a cold shoulder (treat coldly)
Look rosy (cheerful)
Look blue (dismal)
He is a book-wor m (likes to read)
A chicken-hearted person (timid)
To pour oil on the trouble waters.
