In a conversation between two girls one of them states her passion for books while the other pretends to have the same feeling but arguably it looks like she hasn’t read any, then at some point of the conversation the foremost says:
" I’m guessing you wouldn’t be caught dead in a book club"
Does this mean :?
a- the second doesn’t know anything about lit.
b- she’s just lying.
c- the first is implying that the other girl never spends time in a library.
Could help me out with this? thks…
Well,
You wouldn’t be caught dead doing it means [color=blue]you never would do it and therefore I think the speaker is implying that the other girl doesn’t spend any time in a library.[YSaerTTEW443543]

buddy, you must be online all the time, that’s what I call a good samaritan.
By the way, do you know why a good person is called a good s.? you know the whole story?
Gracias,de verdad.
Now what does a “good samaritan” mean ??
good samaritan is basically an overall nice person, always help out even if the person(s) they are helping are total strangers. there isnt much to a story just nice people.
As far as I know, this expression refers to a story in the Bible:
There was a man who was robbed and hurt. He lay on the road, a lot of people passed by, but nobody cared - except for the ‘good Samaritan’ who stopped, helped him and took care of his injuries.
What is the complete meaning of this sentence?
“Which route is better remains an open question.”
