At three paces from her, seated in a chair which he balanced on two legs, leaning his elbow on an old worm-eaten table, was a tall young man of twenty, or two-and-twenty, who was looking at her with an air in which vexation and uneasiness were mingled. He questioned her with his eyes, but the firm and steady gaze of the young girl controlled his look.--------The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas (一)I think she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.

There are 30 English idioms in this lesson, so what I recommend is not to try and learn all of them at once, but as you're watching take note of some of the ones that you can use to describe people or to refer to people in your life like friends, family members, neighbours, and colleagues. When I'm talking and I'm introducing each idiom, if someone pops into your head and you think ah that's so and so!
