AEIS英语培训越来越激烈，考生在与苏州AEIS考试培训老师的沟通中常常会问备考AEIS用什么书?如果没考过AEIS怎么办?其实掌握一些扩展知识，对于AEIS英语成绩的作用也是不言而喻的。下面，AEIS考生服务中心老师带大家学习和fish相关的习语。
1. be a big fish in a small pond
英语释义：to have a lot of influence only over a small area
它的字面意思就是是小池中的大鱼，也就是说仅在小范围内很有影响。
In her hometown, she was a big fish in a small pond, but after she moved to New York, she was just only one among many millions.
在她家乡，她很了不起。可是搬到纽约后，她就不过是芸芸众生之一了。
2. be like a fish out of water
英语释义：to feel awkward because you are in a situation that you have not experienced before or because you are very different from the people around you
你想想鱼离开了水意味着什么呢?这个习语就用来比喻因处于新的环境而感到不适。
She feels like a fish out of water among the celebrities.
在那些达官贵人中，她感到十分不自在。
I felt like a fish out of water at the party because I knew no one.
在这个聚会上我感到浑身不自在，因为我一个人也不认识。
3. be neither fish nor fowl
英语释义：like one thing in some ways and like another thing in other ways
fish是鱼，fowl指家禽，尤指鸭，鹅，火鸡之类的，既不是鱼又不是家禽，它的意思就是不伦不类。
From the perspective of practicability, the facilities are neither fish nor fowl.
从实用的角度看，这样的设备有些不伦不类。
4. have bigger/other fish to fry
英语释义：to have something more important to do
fry是“油煎;油炸”的意思，但是“炸大鱼”跟烹饪做饭倒没什么关系，它的意思是有更重要的事情要做。
I haven't time to play with the children; I have other fish to fry.
我没空和孩子们玩，我还有要事要做。
5. there are plenty more fish in the sea
别人分手你给予安慰的时候就可以用到这个习语。当你跟别人说海里的鱼有的是，也就是在劝他or她还有很多合适的人。
用我们熟悉的话说就是，“天涯何处无芳草”。
Don't cry over Pierre - there are plenty more fish in the sea!
别为皮埃尔哭了，天下的好男人多的是!
6. drink like a fish
英语释义：to drink too much alcohol
drink不仅仅是“喝，饮”，还有“喝酒，嗜酒，酗酒”的意思。
所以drink like a fish的意思不是像鱼一样喝水，人家的意思是喝酒 ，而且还是喝多了!
Jaff really drank like a fish at the party on Saturday.
Jaff在周六的party上喝得太多了。
7. a fishing expedition
英语释义：an attempt to discover the facts about something by collecting a lot of information, often secretly
fish作动词不仅仅是钓鱼，也形容在困难的情况下寻找。expedition是远征;探险队，这个习语指的是为了调查揭示真相，秘密地收罗信息、资料。
The investigators' request for the company's accounts is simply a fishing expedition - they have no real evidence of wrongdoing.
调查员要求查公司的账只是一个收集信息的手段——他们没有违规操作的真实证据。
8. fish in troubled waters
英语释义：to try to win an advantage from a difficult situation or from someone else's problems
troubled waters翻译为混乱状态;波涛汹涌的水，在这样的水里钓鱼，不就是浑水摸鱼吗?
They were clearly seeking to fish in troubled waters.
显然他们意图混水摸鱼。
9. fish or cut bait
英语释义：used to tell someone to take action or to stop saying that they will
这个词语的意思是要么全力以赴，要么索性放弃;下定决心就别再动摇。
