Answer:

An idiom is an expression that takes on a figurative meaning when certain words are combined, which is different from the literal definition of the individual words. For example, let's say I said: 'Don't worry, driving out to your house is a piece of cake. ... But in this context, it's a well-known idiom.

Explanation:

'bite off more than you can chew' doesn't mean you bite more than a mouthful of a cake or something else and then struggle to chew

Answer:

homeroom

Explanation:

In Avi's novel "Nothing But The Truth" we meet Mr. Lunser in Phillip Mallory's school.  Mr. Lunser is Phillip's homeroom teacher for a time.  He is a easy-going guy who is not very disciplined with his class.  He tries to be humorous (he calls his students Bozos) and he is always cracking jokes with the class. During the opening of the novel morning announcements are being made, and Dr. Doane tells the students that on "this day Julius Caesar was assassinated.  Mr. Lunser replies, " And right after that they all sat down and ate a Caesar salad."   Phillp ends up having to transfer to Margaret Narwin's homeroom and she is extremely disciplined and very strict.

Can a drama be successful with one but not the other?
sladkih [1.3K]
Im not sure I understand this question,but I  will try to make out what you are trying to say,you can have alot of drama in your life with others,but without others then there is not very much drama,maybe you can have drama just by your self,for example you find a thing of ants and feel like your about to pass out(happened to me this morning) thats drama without other people.
