“Down-to-earth” means someone or something that is honest, practical and easy to deal with. It is 36 to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to 37 accepts other people as equals. A down-to-earth is just the 38 of someone who acts importantly and proudly.

Down-to-earth persons may be 39 members of society, of course. But they do not let their importance “go to their 40 ”. They do not 41 themselves to be better persons than others of less importance. Someone who is filled with his own importance and 42 , often without cause, is said to have “his nose in the air”. There is no way a person with his nose in the 43 can be down-to-earth. Americans use another expression that means almost the same 44 “down-to-earth”. The expression is “both-feet-on-the-ground”. Someone with both-feet-on-the-ground is a person 45 a good understanding of reality. He has what is called “ 46 sense”. He may have 47 , but he does not allow them to 48 his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is 49 who has his “head-in-the-clouds”．A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the 50 world.

Sometimes 51 a dreamer can be brought back to earth. 52 words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth.

Usually, the person who is down-to-earth is very 53 to have both-feet-on-the-ground.

　 54 we have both our feet on-the-ground, or when we are down-to-earth, we act 55 and openly toward others．Our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.
