The American expression “shoo-in” means someone or something that seems sure to win a race or competition.

Before a big football game, supporters of each are certain to argue about which side will win.

Sometimes, however, one team appears so much stronger than the others that everyone agrees it will win.. The stronger team is a shoo-in. There is no way that it can lose.

Many years ago dishonest riders sometimes agreed secretly to control their horses so that one chosen horse would win the race. but one of the riders would hold back their horses. The chosen rider would shoo his horse ahead of the others, and win the race.

The other riders would secretly bet large amounts of money that the chosen horse would win. The public soon learned about such about such race. They began to call the winners of such a race a “shoo-in”

These days, people use shoo into describe any athlete or competition that seems certain to win, even without cheating.

American runner Edewin Moses won more than hundred races before he ran the hurdle race in the 1984 Olympic Games. Everyone said Moses was a shoo-in, and that he could not lost. And they were right. He won the gold medal.

  It is not unusual for us to gather with our nearest and dearest at weekends.But do you know that holidays, much like relationships, can be "made, maintained and broken" through conversations? Deborah Tannen, a Georgetown University professor, believes so.She offers suggestions to improve communication at the holiday table and beyond.Let's take a look.

  A round dining table is best for promoting(促成)a lively conversation because everyone faces one another.

  Women prefer to face each other and make eye contact when they talk.Men might look around at other things."Guys may be more relaxed keeping their eyes on the TV," says Tannen."They'll still be listening, though."

  Be aware that people have different ways of talking.Be aware of people who seem left out.If you feel you are doing ail the talking, hold back to give others a chance to join in.If you feel you aren't getting a chance to speak, try pushing yourself to start talking before it seems natural or polite.

  Some families find that gatherings go more smoothly(顺利地)if they take part in an outdoor activity.Going to a park for a walk may be more enjoyable than sitting around chatting.
