Hello

Hello everybody. Maybe someone can tell me whether these phrases can be used in such phrases?
"Turn away" - He did not help in a difficult situation.
"Go up" - Rise on the career ladder. He rose in my eyes.
"Get off" - Bring your legs ( run away quickly).

 

Here are my comments:

The first sentence is correct - someone turns away. Brava!

"climb" up the corporate ladder would be more correct. We wouldn't use "go up" in this context.

"Take off" would be correct.  The expression "get off" is a slang expression for reaching a climax while having sex.

I hope this helps, Nicoletta 

 

You can also say of your friend "I can count on him." This is a very common way to say this. If you run out of gas at 3 a.m. (silly example) you know you can call him and he'll get out of bed to bring you gas.

A little help with these sentences. Verb-noun collocations

She is CONSUMING an insane QUANTITY of medicines. They will do no good to her!

When he was about to answer the last question, the TIME had been CONSUMED.
When he was about to answer the last question, the time was up. (In English the word CONSUMED is not used for time.)

As an avid reader, I DEVOUR every BOOK I get into my hands.
As an avid reader, I devour every book I can get my hands on.
A real journalist must DEVOUR the NEWS every morning if they want to climb the ladder of this career.
A real journalist must devour the news every morning if they want to climb the ladder (or if they want to get ahead)
I am not the kind of person who RELISHES CHALLENGES. I feel safer inside my comfort zone.
Correct
Stop RELISHING the THOUGHTS about what might happen in the future and pay attention to what you are doing at this moment.
CORRECTION: When you RELISH  a thought in English it is about something good or happy or that you hope will happen. We might say in English: Stop focusing on (or thinking about) what might happen in the future and pay attention to what you are doing at this moment. The way you wrote the sentence it sounded like you were telling someone not to worry.

I know it looks like a bitter PILL to SWALLOW now, but you will thank me some day.
We would probably say in English "I know it seems, instead of look. The rest of the sentence is good!
You are being extremely childish, SWALLOW your PRIDE and apologize to her, for God's sake!
Correct.

 Hello, your English is good. Bravo!

 

**I appreciate every type of correction, either the collocations, the style, or any mistake I might've made.

A can is a round metal container you usually use a tool called a "can opener" for. (Or nowadays it could have a tab you pull). A jar is usually glass and you open it by screwing off a "lid". The word "can" is also used as the ability to be able to do something. As in "can we go now?" or "You can go to Europe to see your cousins." Nicoletta

No! The word "up" is not used to get a jar off.
