English in a Minute: Strike a Chord

Описание: Welcome to English in a Minute. 
When you “strike a chord” in music, you play several notes at the same time.  So, are Anna and Andrew going to play music? I hope so! 
Anna: I love Amelia Earhart. Her life really struck a chord with me.  
Andrew: Really? But she was a pilot. And you’re afraid of flying. 
Anna: Oh! No, her flying career didn’t strike a chord. She loved hot chocolate. And so do I! 
When something strikes a chord with you, it causes a strong reaction, usually because you identify with it. Striking a chord can also mean that you’re reminded of something familiar.
