Dialog 1 back on one's feet [ 立ち直る、回復する ]
| Angela: | Who's the greatest athlete of all time? |
| Yukio: | I think Lance Armstrong is pretty amazing! |
| Angela: | Why, because he's won the Tour de France seven times? |
| Yukio: | Well, that too. But mainly because he had cancer and was back on his feet winning another Tour de France within a year! |
Dialog 2 fall on deaf ears [ 無視される ]
| Yukio: | Guess what. My roommate Skippy left without paying rent and he stole my girlfriend again! |
| Angela: | I told you it was a bad idea to let him move back in with you! |
| Yukio: | Well, I guess you did tell me that I was a knucklehead for doing that. |
| Angela: | Yeah, and it fell on deaf ears! |
