情境：看到因暈船而臉色發青的乘客，這時應該怎麼說?
( ) Many passengers on the boat looked blue around the .
(A)beards (B)gills (C)jaws
正确解答：( B )
船上的許多乘客都看起來病恹恹的。
原來是這個意思！blue around the gills
臉色發青；一臉病容
gill指“腮”，想象人的這個部位四周爆青筋的樣子，肯定極不舒服，也就是“臉色發青”之意。習語中的blue可以green代替，反義詞為rosy around the gills(氣色紅潤的)。
Let's talk !Marcy: Are you okay? You look blue around the gills.
馬西：你還好嗎？你看起來一臉病态。
Bruce: My dad had a heart attack last night.
布魯斯：我爸爸昨晚心髒病發作了。
Marcy: That's terrible. How is he doing now?
馬西：真糟糕，那他現在怎麼樣了?
Bruce：He's feeling a lot better and he'll be home tomorrow.
布魯斯：他好多了，明天就會回家。
Marcy: I guess you didn't sleep a wink all night.
馬西：我猜你整個晚上都沒合眼吧。
