成语

to spin a cocoon around oneself 作茧自缚

to pierce to the truth with a single pertinent remark 一针见血

first awakening of love 情窦初开

pledge in all sincerity 信誓旦旦

be the first to be affected 首当其冲

(strange as it may seem) things never come singly but in pairs 无独有偶

income falling short 入不敷出

demand exceeds supply 供不应求

have ample food and clothing 丰衣足食

make do with what is available 因陋就简

endure great hardships in pioneer work 筚路褴缕
