INTERMEDIATE (B1) LEVEL COMIC
Black Dog White Dog
In Black Dog White Dog each comic strip is built around one English
idiom
or
proverb,
so as you read, you can remember the more
colourful
side of the English language.
Sometimes it is better to say nothing. This proverb is usually used when you have the choice to say something that might be
better left unsaid.
For example, you and your friends have an exam in 10 minutes. You meet before the exam and one of your friends tells you what she has revised. You know that one of the things she revised is not correct. Should you tell her?
With just 10 minutes left, maybe it’s better not to tell her because she might panic and have a problem with the whole exam. Staying silent is better for her.

If you give money to a stupid person,
they
will not save it. They will not keep it or
invest
it. They won’t even give it to their family.
What will they do? They will spend it on the first stupid, ridiculous, pointless, unnecessary thing that they think of.
That is why businesses often target their adverts at stupid people; because "a fool and his money are soon parted".
