EXPRESSION No.1: CHANGE FOR THE BETTER
When a change brings positive results, we say it’s a CHANGE FOR THE BETTER. Logically, if a change has no benefits, we say it’s a CHANGE FOR THE WORSE.
EXPRESSION No.2: CHANGE ONE’S MIND
Sometimes a decision is reversed, that is, we cancel it and act in a different way. From shopping for clothes to voting for a president, every person is entitled to CHANGE HIS or HER MIND.
EXPRESSION No.3: CHANGE OF HEART
Plans aren’t the only thing that can change. We can also change the way we feel about something or someone. If you have a CHANGE OF HEART, your way of thinking is now different from what it was, and your new attitude is probably more favorable or positive.
