For example, a high-performing high school student in a small town could be a big fish in a small pond. 31 And he may simply not know how small his "pond" is—until he moves on to a big university. He must compete with hundreds of students who were also the best at their high schools. 32 Here is another example. A young singer was famous in his small town. He wanted to move to a big city to grow his singing career. 33 "Here in our small town," they said, "you are a big fish in a small pond. Once you move to New York City, that is going to change. Best be ready!" For some people, this can be a painful realization-sometimes called a wake-up call. 34 They never grow their circle of friends or work environment. Sometimes they do not take opportunities that increase their environment, or pond. By staying in a small pond, it is safer. There are fewer dangers and also fewer competitors. The Merriam-Webster online dictionary explains another way to use the idiom. It can also describe a situation where one person has more power, influence, knowledge, or experience than others within a small group. So sometimes we use this expression to describe people who want to stay in a small pond just to feel more important. 35 A. His family supported him but also warned him. B. He may feel overly-confident or overly-important. C. Now, some people like being a big fish in a small pond. D. People have been using this expression since the early 1800s. E. Their position is not questioned by the other fish in the pond. F. A pond is a small body of water, which is usually smaller than a lake. G. His pond just got much larger and is now filled with many more fish. 浙江省嘉兴市2020-2021学年高一下学期期末考试试卷英语试卷 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。 There you are in your favorite clothing store.
