    I haven't heard this expression in this context before, as in waiting for something bad to happen. In my experience if you are "waiting for lightning to strike" you are waiting for a good idea to come to you, for inspiration.

    Hi, my corrections below: Describe the summer weather in Shanghai Hello everyone, It's summer in Shanghai, people are wearing T-shirts and pants (or trousers for British English) every day. The temperature is not at its peak, and there’s a breeze that makes the early summer cooler. It’s easy to fall asleep at night and you can have a good night's sleep. But unfortunately, the temperature will get higher next month, I’ll feel sticky because of the heat. And mosquitos will be everywhere. Sleep could be bothersome / difficult . Air conditioning could be the best way to make me cool down in such hot weather, but it’s just a palliative. 🤣 Please help me with my sentences. Thank you 🥰

    To meet up= to meet another person to do something (a meetup is an informal meeting) "Let's meet up at 7pm" To start off: to begin by doing something, or to make something begin by doing something, "I started off my speech with a joke" To start out: If you start out by doing something, you do it at the beginning of an activity or a point in your life. "My dad started out as a salesman. He then became a manager." I hope this helps! Not sure about the song title, rock n roll is a common phrase!

    What is the context of the quote? It sounds like someone has moved from one world to another, for example in a Science Fiction novel.

    It means a cause (charity, political or social movement) that merits attention, aid, or action due to an inherent goodness of its values. "You should donate money to The Red Cross. It's a worthy cause" I went on that demonstration because I think it's a worthy cause" hope that helps!

    This means his winning are 'up'. He has won more than he has lost. You could say "I'm up $500". It's an unspecified amount here, so to "win big" or to be "up big" means he has won a lot of money.

    It's usually used in the context of something being a bit strange and wild, I'd say. It's rather an old fashioned expression now though, more dating to 1960s America!
