The expression is often used today. For example, you might hear a student say to her friend that her spelling test was as easy as falling off a log. There are several other expressions that mean the same thing. And their meaning is as easy to understand as falling off a log. One is, easy as pie. Nothing is easier than eating a piece of sweet, juicy pie. Unless it is a piece of cake._________________________今天也时常用到这个短语,比如,你可能听到一个学生告诉她朋友她的拼写测试简直是小菜一碟. 另外几个意思相同的短语,这些短语的意思也简单易懂.其中一个是easy as pie.没有什么比吃香甜多汁的馅饼更简单了,除非是它是(a piece of cake也有小菜一碟的意思.)_________________________
