1. ...but there was no way I was going to break my honesty streak over something as dumb as this.
break my honesty streak: streak在這里的意思是“具有某種性格特征”债查，break在這里可以理解為“違背”

造句： I told my brother to keep his brave streak as long as possible.?
2. After Rodrick showed me that trick, we went through bags like nobody's business. In fact, we ran out in half an hour.
go through: to use, spend or eat all of something, especially quickly這里的go through是“很快用完”的意思，跟下文的run out意思相近
like nobody's business: very quickly, very easily or very well
造句: She ran away like nobody's business after going through her food.
3. Rowley knows the second most embarrassing thing that ever happened to me, and I really don't need him digging it back up.
dig something back up: 這個(gè)表達(dá)來自于dig up: to discover secret or forgotten facts by searching very carefully這里的意思是又把…的糗事翻出來
這個(gè)表達(dá)有一種把陳年舊賬重翻出來提的感覺齿兔，如果一個(gè)人很喜歡翻舊賬组题，我們就可以說he/she always digs something happened and really embarrassing back up
造句： I really don't like a person who likes digging something happened and really embarrassing back up when quarreling.?
#句子篇
I really didn't feel like working on a Saturday, but I needed the cash. Besides, Gramma makes really awesome hot chocolate. So we got some rakes and plastic bags from our garage and headed down to grandma's house.
feel like doing something想要做某事
make really awesome hot chocolate可以作為一個(gè)固定表達(dá)來借鑒葫男，當(dāng)形容某人做…很好吃時(shí)經(jīng)常可以用崔列。例如my mom makes awesome/ tasty/ fantastic/ delicious/mouthwatering cookies/pancakes/ cakes/ salad…
rake當(dāng)作“耙”的意思時(shí)既可作名詞又可作動詞梢褐。此外，作名詞還有“花花公子”的意思赵讯，還可用作形容詞表示“放蕩的” Igor Stravinsky有一部作品叫 A Rake's Process, 有人譯成《浪子的歷程》盈咳，后來改編成歌劇，題目就是rake的“花花公子边翼，浪子”的意思
head down to someplace朝…去
造句：My mother makes really mouthwatering pancakes, so every day I head down home right after school.?
#作文篇
Today I made some really fantastic chocolate ice lollies for my younger brother, trying to make up for the hair-cut failure stuff. But my brother just said they stank. While, In order to keep my friendly streak, I patiently begged him to have a try. Guess what happened ? He went through them in several bites like nobody's business. Right after that, I told him those ice lollies cost me 20 yuan in total, and as his kind sister, I would give him a discount so finally he just needed to pay 15 yuan. It seemed that he took it way too seriously and said he would do anything to offset the debt. And things went much easier, then. So, here was my plan: first, forget the hair-cut stuff and never dig it back up. Second, for the following three days, make strawberry ice lollies for me because a strawberry one is right three times cheaper than a chocolate one.?
