Homework

Hello, Teacher Marie. Jonathan is my headache today. When I'm going to school today, I would ask my friend, who is good at English, to pronounce Jonathan. I'll try to pronounce it clearly.^^ Make a sentence or give an example situation using the following idioms: 1. As easy as pie 2. Like giving candy to a baby 3. A fruitcake 1. These days, overseas direct purchase is very popular in Korea. At first, it looks complicated because of shipping and customs problems. When you try it once or twice, you can realize that it is as easy as pie. 2. I'm sorry, Teacher. I couldn't find this idiom's meaning. When I translate it directly, its meaning is similar to one of korean proverb. But, I'm not sure. Could you explain this idiom? 3. I heard that he gave up the scholarship which was really hard to win. I think he is about as nutty as a fruitcake.

Hello Kaylee! I think you should name your son \"Jonathan\" to remind you about how difficult it is to pronounce. Haha! You can do it! You just need more practice. :) The idiom \"Like giving candy to a baby\" means something is extremely easy to do. Basically, when you give a baby a candy, the baby would definitely take it. So it\'s not that difficult. For example: Selling my old KPOP CDs, albeit at a ridiculous price, to my younger cousins is like giving candy to a baby. They are all obsessed with KPOP nowadays. Hope you get it now. Ciao! ~Teacher Marie~ Hello, Teacher Marie. >> CORRECT!Jonathan is my headache today. >> CORRECT!
