TEST YOUR ENGLISH: Play the phrase game!

A superb lesson on advanced idioms. If I want to use them naturally, I may have to make a lot of effort.

Dear James! Thank you for your lesson! It is really fantastic, especially your way of explanation. You are really GREAT!!!
1. eye to eye
2. face to face
3. put our heads together
Best wishes from Russia
P.S. In Quiz point 6 is not correct. Put your heads together means to solve the problem together, not to compete. Please correct

Betty had an intimate relationship with John. They usually sit cheek to cheek silently and romantically as meeting. Even John had two left feet, she enjoyed dancing with him. Because John was on the edge of society, when Betty’s father knew that they wanted to marry, he told her tongue in cheek that she would have what a fantastic life with him. Then, her father wanted to meet him face to face so he could make him give up that decision, but it did not pan out. They married in two weeks. Because John did not have fixed income, they were living hand to mouth every month, and they also had a lot of debt. One day, Betty caught some short messages on John’s phone. She realized her husband did some dirty works. One message said “You have to come to the bar for a business tonight.” As john was set to go out, Betty locked the door and said “I am putting my foot down. You cannot go to that damn meeting. I put my neck on the line for you. How can you do this to me?” Finally, she said she was expecting a baby. John was surprised. Because he would become a father, he had to think his child too. So, he quit the dirty works. John and Betty put their heads together to figure out a solution for their debt. They saw eye to eye about getting help from Betty’s father. On the meeting day Betty’s father was ready to go eyeball to eyeball with them. When he learned he would become a grandfather, he was delighted and said that all my wealth was yours.
Thanks James!

Thanks a lot, James, for your wonderful lesson.
This is fantastic. You’ve made it tongue in cheek as always.
If I put my handicaps points obtained while watching the video and the quiz points together, it will be 110 despite Number Six.

In lecture put head together, we understood as cooperate or consult. But in Q-6, it was stated as “compete”. What’ s the actual meaning of ” put the head together”?

Answer to Q-6 seem confusing. Probable right answer: let’s consult and work together. Not: • Let’s compete. What’s your decision?

AKM Mostafa
