First of all , let's have a review. Last time we learned "The cat's out of the bag." which means "to tell a secret and make many people know it ". And today I want to emphasize that the secrete told by someone is a great and an important one and it's uncover careless and by mistake. We should get knowledge of it more carefully and exactly so that we can make an exact use of it. 今天我想强调一点的是我们昨天学的习语使用的情景。这个被传开的秘密是个很大的秘密很重要的秘密，而且泄露出去时无意的，不是有意的。If have an intention to tell a secret, we cannot use it. 如果你是恶意传出去的，就不能用这个句子了。The cat's out of the bag is similar to saying in Chinese: 秘密被传开了;秘密被揭穿了;泄露了天机。Something like those above.

"Divorce" is the key word in this sentence which means "end your marriage legally". For example: She is divorcing her husband.他正在和她的丈夫闹离婚。这个句子也可是这样说：She and her husband are divorcing.

But this phrase is often used in passive voice. It means "separate a person, an idea, a subject, etc. from something."意思是：使分离，使脱离。For example: I think that art should be divorced from politics. 我认为艺术应该与政治分开。When she was depressed, she felt utterly divorced from reality. 当她沮丧时，她感到与现实完全脱离。
