妙语佳句，活学活用
1. Take on
Take on 常用的意思有下面几种：
1) Undertake or begin to deal with，例如：I took on new responsibilities.
2) Hire, engage，例如：We take on extra workers during the busy season.
3) Oppose in competition，例如：This young wrestler was willing to take on all comers.
4) Acquire as, or as if, one's own, 例如：He took on the look of a prosperous banker.
5) Display strong emotion, 例如：Don't take on so.
在本段中，take on使用的是第三种意思，意思是"这套时装设计是表示现代女性们用野性来对抗城市的禁锢"。
2. Hang by a thread
这个片语也写作hang by a hair，意思是"depend on a small thing or be at risk"，例如：
His life now hangs by a thread. 他命悬一线。
这个表达来自一个关于Damocles的传说。Damocles是Syracuse国王Dionysius的一个大臣。国王厌烦了Damocles的阿谀奉承，邀请他前来赴宴，并让他坐在仅用一根头发悬吊的利剑下面，来警示他所处地位的危险。Damocles' sword 也成为一个表达，表示"即将到来的危险"，例如：The likelihood of lay-offs has been a sword of Damocles over the department for months. 部门可能要裁员的消息让这几个月来每个人都提心吊胆。
