Pull one's leg
Dog in the manger
Burn the midnight oil
Burst into tears
Hold your ground
A golden opportunity
Bone of contention
Within a stone's throw
One who prevents others from enjoying something despite having no use for it.
The subject or point of an argument
To stay up working, especially studying, late at night.
Very close to something
To kid, fool, or trick someone
To refuse to move backwards, especially when you are being attacked
To begin to cry suddenly
An excellent opportunity that is not likely to be repeated
