[01:15.55]Story time
[01:21.19]Yesterday Ken was working with Peter and Sue in the garden.
[01:26.75]Sue was good at making things grow.
[01:30.51]So Peter said."You have a green thumb,Sue."
[01:34.98]Sue was very happy to hear that,she thanked Peter.But Ken was puzzled.
[01:41.75]He looked at Sue's thumb carefully and said,
[01:46.00]"She doesn't have a green thumb,why did you say that?What do you mean?"
[01:52.95]Then Peter told them something about this phrase.
[01:57.21]The thumb helps to shape the human hand.
[02:01.36]To make things beautiful
[02:04.53]you need the thumb to give the hand a freedom and control of movement.
[02:09.88]Luckily,the hand only has one thumb.
[02:14.95]Two thumbs on the hand would be like having two or more cooks in the kitchen.
[02:21.01]They would get in each other's way.
[02:24.35]We have some special phrases to express the mastery of the thumb.
[02:29.81]There are days when everything you do seems to go wrong.
[02:35.17]You cannot get the right shoe on.
[02:38.93]You cannot hit the right key when you type.
[02:43.08]The hammer misses the nail and hits your finger.
[02:47.63]Then you say,"God, I am all thumbs today! "
[02:53.58]When one is ruled by another or controlled by him,
[02:58.55]we say he is under " that man's thumb.
[03:03.61]"A sick man often finds himself
[03:07.45]"under the doctor's thumb ".
[03:10.82]You might one day find yourself stuck on the road,
[03:15.37]far from help,because you are out of gas.
[03:19.94]Then you may look down the road and hope a car will soon come,
[03:24.67]so that you can"wave your thumb" at the driver to "thumb a ride".
[03:31.15]"To give someone the thumbs down"
[03:34.99]is often used when a man cannot get the support he wants.
[03:40.58]For example, if you have lost the support of your classmates,
[03:46.51]they "gave you the thumbs down".
[03:50.48]If you are good at making things grow,
[03:54.55]then you are said to have a "green thumb".
[03:59.28]"Do you understand now?" Peter asked.
[04:02.76]"Yes, I'm always under your thumb," Ken answered.
