!Mira que luna! Look at that moon! Resources for learning English
Fernando Olivera: El rapto.- TEXT FROM THE NOVEL The goldfinch by Donna Tartt (...) One night we were in San Antonio, and I was having a bit of a melt-down, wanting my own room, you know, my dog, my own bed, and Daddy lifted me up on the fairgrounds and told me to look at the moon. When "you feel homesick", he said, just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go". So after he died, and I had to go to Aunt Bess -I mean, even now, in the city, when I see a full moon, it's like he's telling me not to look back or feel sad about things, that home is wherever I am. She kissed me on the nose. Or where you are, puppy. The center of my earth is you". The goldfinch Donna Tartt 4441 English edition

DAILY UPDATED IDIOMS WITH PICTURES. IDIOMS. NECK AND NECK.


Neck and neck.

frenchculinary.blogspot.com
For example:
Meaning: If two competitors are running neck and neck in a race, they are almost level.

  • Nearly all the votes have been counted and the two candidates are still neck and neck, so we don't know who's won the election yet.
  • The horses were neck and neck as they crossed the finishing line, so the judges have called for a photo.

Quick Quiz:
The top two runners were neck and neck as they
  1. started the last lap of the race
  2. talked to reporters before the race
  3. stood side by side to compare their heights
