3) We need some kind of ………………. -up plan.
4) They’re asking an …………… and a ………………..
5) It’s a bit of a pain in the ………………………
6) Put your ………………… into it.
7) You’ve got to keep your …………………. clean.
8) Can I give you a …………….?
9) He got his …………. dirty.

The meaning of the missing words:

1) very busy
2) stay alert for some news
3) watch carefully
4) keep out of trouble
5) contingency
6) do anything for
7) what does it mean in reality

Hello, I am not a teacher,

But I know one thing if you want some help from who works on this site I reckon it is better for you to try by yourself before post your question.

People do not know if it is your homework, I give you this advice give us your answers and after maybe the teachers help you to advance in your understanding of English.

Have a nice day.

Nonetheless, you won't find anyone who will simply GIVE you the answers. I will give you a big clue. The answer to each and every question is a part of the body and yes, they are all idioms.

For instance (here is one answer): to keep your nose clean = to keep out of trouble.

What is it with nose and trouble? Nose is also associated with trouble in Turkish. But it's quite hard to understand when it comes to picture how a person's nose makes trouble literally? :)
