Making almost no noise, being shy
and not talking much
As blind as a bat

      very bad eyesight
chicken




Afraid, scared
To talk
turkey
To talk openly
and directly
A copycat




A person who wants to do the
 same thing as other people
An early bird




     The first person to be
somewhere, a person who gets out
          of bed early
To work like a dog




To work very hard
Let sleeping dogs lie




You shouldn’t disturb a situation as it
     would result in trouble and
            complications
To eat a lot
Let the cat out of the bag




 Disclose a secret
A fish out of water




Someone who is in a situation they
        are unsuited to
Hold your horses




 Hold on, be patient
Kill two birds with one stone




Achieve two objectives with a
        single effort
Smell a rat
To know
instinctively
that
something is
wrong or that
someone is
lying to you.
Take the bull by the horns




  To tackle a problem directly,
without worrying about the risks
            involved.
Like a bull in a china shop




Behaving clumsily when you
should be careful
A cock and bull story




A lie someone tells that is
 completely unbelievable
Packed like sardines




When a place is very crowded,
   without enough space
The
                   black
                   sheep


Someone who does not fit into a
group or family because their
behaviour is not good enough
Straight from the horse’s
mouth




From the highest authority,
the best source of information
