Ben and Joe are talking after class about idioms concerned with dogs and cats.

動名詞

Ben: I have been thinking that we humans are not doing dogs justice.

Joe: That’s an interesting idea. How is that?

Ben: Dogs have been considered man’s best and most loyal friend,

but every phrase related to dogs seems to have a negative meaning.

Ben: You see, we often say “You can’t   teach an old dog new tricks.”

What’s more, one may be living “a dog’s life.”

Ben: Cats, on the other hand, get better treatment.

Ben: Well, at least “A cat has nine lives.”

It has a better chance than “a dog’s chance.”

Joe: That makes sense … (Silent for a while)

What will you say when it starts to “rain cats and dogs?”
