     Today we will talk about expressions with "apple". "Apple pie order" means very well organized.

Nobody is sure when and where this expression began. It is said that the women of New England loved

to have everything in its place, especially when they were making apple pie.

     Another expression "apple of discord" describes the opposite condition. The ancient story says that

all the gods and goddesses were celebrating a marriage when Discord, one of the gods, threw a golden

apple on the table which was to be given as a prize to the most beautiful goddess. How could they

choose among Juno, Minerva and Venus? When Paris decided to give the golden apple to Venus, Juno

and Minerva were very angry and threatened(威胁)him. This began the long Trojan War.

     Calling a tomato "a love apple" was a mistake. In the sixteenth century, Spain imported the tomato

from South America to Morocco, and then Italian businessmen took it to Italy. The Italian name for the

tomato was pomo di Moro-apple of the Moors(荒野). When French growers imported it from Italy,

they thought di Moro meant d'amour, the French word for love. And so pomo di Moro became the

apple of love.

     People believe many things about the apple. One belief is that it has great powers of keeping people

healthy. "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Another belief is based on fact. "One rotten apple

spoils the barrel." The expression has come to mean that one bad person in a group can cause everyone

to act badly.
