b) Apparatus / listening
c) Device / hearing
d) Device / auditory

Question 2
Winston Churchill once said: ``In the course of my life, I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess that I have always found it a wholesome diet.`` Churchill is known for his witty quotes, and this one tells me he knew how to move on quickly from a social gaffe. If he can move on from a conversation ``oops`` the rest of us can learn to do it gracefully as well.

Thomas Neiel once said: ``Of those who say nothing, few are silent``. Have you ever spent time with someone who just blabbed on and after you sat and listened to them, you wondered what on earth they were even talking about? That`s what this quote applies to. I picture this advice coming in very handy with cocktail parties and small talk. If you can focus on one or two you`d just talked randomly with many different people.

The idiom that best describes the quotes by Winston Churchill and Thomas Neiel is:
a) The cat got your tongue.
b) Sour grapes.
c) To put one's foot in the mouth.
d) To make heads or tails.
