孩子的老师每天都教一个英语俚语，久而久之，我也跟孩子学了有一百来个，在足迹做个总结，便人便己。
1. Ace up Your Sleeve
英文解释: a surprise or secret advantage, especially something tricky that is kept hidden until needed.（小手腕儿；小猫腻）
来源： Back in the 1500s most people didn't have pockets in their clothes, so they kept things in their sleeves. Later on, magicians hid objects, even small live animals, up their sleeves and then pulled them out unexpectedly to surprise their audiences. In the 1800s dishonest card players secretly slipped a winning card, often an ace, up their sleeves and pulled it out when nobody was looking to win the game.
造句：I don't know how Zoey is going to get her mom to buy her a bike, but I'm sure she has an ace up her sleeves.
