26、 of oye 里的 apple 指的是瞳孔,是眼睛里最敏感最珍贵的部分。这条成语来自诗篇第十七篇第八节:“求你保护我,如同保护眼中的瞳孔。” (Keep me as the apple of the eye.)Tom is the apple of his grandmothers eye.是他的掌上明珠。John regarded the gold ring left by his dead wife as the apple of his eye.把他亡妻留下的这只金戒指视为珍宝。129.Rule of thumb 在实际生活中,一般用来指靠经验就可以得知的东西:Rough practical method of assessing or measuring sth, used based on past experience rathern on exactmeasurement, etc (and therefore not compley reliable in every case or in every detail)(对事物)粗略但实用的估计方法(通常凭经验而不作精确的计量等,故并非时时处处均
