Let's practice the new idioms we have learnt last week.

1- After the game against Guarani , the coach Murici Ramalho smelled a rat. He thought that his team should have played better.
...............................................................................

2- Ronaldo , Chicão and William are not going to play next game. Yesterday Dentinho let the cat out of the bag during an interview.

...............................................................................

3- I heard that Scollari is not satisfyed with Palmeiras's group. He thinks that with this squad his team is not gonna be among the four best teams. I can't tell you who told me that but I got this information straight from the horse's mouth.

..............................................................................

4- When J.B. told Anselmo that he wouldn't go to the barbecue tomorrow...Anselmo thought that something was definitely wrong with J.B. As far as Anselmo was concerned , J.B. never says no to an invitation like that.

.............................................................................

5- Palmeiras was defeated at Pacaembu. Fluminense couldn't beat Guarani while Corinthians blew the roof of the mother scoring five against Goiás. Now it is only a point behind the leader. It seems like everything is working like clockwork for Corinthians.

8- Lorena knows how to say the numbers from one to ten in a perfect English. Anselmo is teaching her many things in English...this way she is being prepared to speak a second language. Congratulations Mr. Ribeiro! You've done a fantastic job!

..........................................................................

9- Is Anselmo going to work today? I don't think so. I heard that he is going to work only on wednesday after the national holiday. I was informed straight from the horse's mouth.

..........................................................................

10- If you have a secret never tell it to a gossip girl. Certainly she will let the cat out of the bag.
