LESSON 1 Proverbs Around the World
Challenge 本文
A Piece of Cake
 Idioms or sayings/are cultural heritages/in each language.// For example,/the saying “something before breakfast”/in Japanese/becomes different expressions/in other languages.// Let’s find an example/in the conversation below.//
A:
I need your help.// I bought a new computer,/but I’m having trouble/with the cables.//
B:
OK.// That’s easy.// I took a course/on information technology/in high school.//
A:
Thanks!//
B:
That’s duck soup/for me.//
 “Duck soup” means/that something is very easy.// There are similar expressions/in English,/such as “a piece of cake”/and “as easy as pie.”// They all mean the same thing.// In Spanish,/the cake or pie/becomes “eaten bread.”// In Korea,/they say,/“It’s like eating cold porridge.”// The expressions are different,/but they commonly include a familiar food/in each culture.//
