1. a white elephant
2. a heart to heart talk
3. turn a deaf ear
Can who help me make a paragraph with using idioms below?
The young wife took one look at the ancient Victorian mansion and fell in love with it. She knew that it had been on the real estate market for a long time, and that it was generally considered to be a white elephant. She planned to have a heart to heart talk with her husband, telling him how very much she wanted to live in that mansion. Unfortunately for her, her husband was a practical man and turned a deaf ear to her pleading, as he realized that it would take years of toil to transform the mansion into anything like a livable state.
Reply:He always seemed like quite a white elephant, but he helped me learned to never turn a deaf ear to people, even if they seem weird. It was one of the best heart-to-heart talks I've had to this day. lol
Reply:Helpful Hannah's example is perfect. You don't need to change a thing.
Reply:I can but I won't. I have a policy statement to write will you write it for me?
