by the way                            the muscles on her stomach

Descripción

What this unit teaches is the idiomatic 

expressions and words with colloquial 

meaning. 

From the reading of this unit some words

 are highlighted that are used colloquially 

and have a different meaning.

Words in idioms do not have a literal meaning

 or dictionary, their meaning comes from the 

situation or the context to which they are 

applied. 

This is the case of expressions like �in a

hurry� which is used to indicate that

someone has a real urgency to do something.

In the reading, the expression �he wasn�t

in a hurry� means that the robber didn�t

have any urgency to get away from the bank.

That�s why he was riding a bike, instead

of going away in a car or some fast vehicle.
