Explanation
Idioms are groups of words with a fixed order and a particular meaning, different from the meanings of each of their words put together. The textbook asks students to form their own sentences using the given idiomatic expressions to demonstrate their understanding. For instance, to find the meaning of 'caught my eye' in a dictionary, one looks under the first 'meaningful' word, which is 'caught'. Constructing original sentences shows how these expressions function naturally in everyday language.
