This is not a true statement. Bruno tells Philip 'don't interrupt', and later tells him to 'calm down' which indicates that he will not 'allow' or 'permit' Philip to interrupt Susie during her argument.
This is a true statement. Susie says, 'immediately after the public became aware of their labor practices, Shmike's stock dropped 44% despite a booming stock market.' When she says 'the public became aware' she means that the public 'found out' or 'discovered the truth' about the company's labor practices.
This is a true statement. Susie says, 'Angry factory workers in Indonesia actually raided their own facility and stole merchandise and equipment...' This means that mistreated Shmike workers entered their own factories in order to steal merchandise and machinery from the factory. To 'raid' is to invade, usually for the purpose of stealing. To break into (a house) is to enter it by force.
This is not the best choice. It is Philip who 'insists on making this a financial issue'. Susie presents an argument which takes into account both the ethical and financial disadvantages of using cheap labor. It would be inaccurate to say that Susie believes that labor abuse is 'strictly', or 'purely' a financial issue.

The phrasal verb "to break in" cannot be used in this way. "To break" would be more appropriate here.
The verb "to break in" refers to entering a location illegally, usually for the purpose of stealing. This verb cannot be used to refer to objects such as stereos or televisions, as they aren't locations, however one can break into "a car", which has an interior.
"To break in (somewhere)" is to forcibly enter a place without authorization or permission, usually with the intention of stealing property. Example: Two thieves were caught trying to break into our offices last night. This phrasal verb is irregular: break in/ broke in/ broken in.
As a noun, "a break-in" refers to an illegal entry, or the act of "breaking in somewhere".

1 threat: "Threat" is the best choice here. A "threat" is a "menace" or a "danger": something or someone which puts you at risk or in danger. In the letter, Kyle Krabb writes that "the quantities of poison consumed by your son were too small to pose a threat to his life". "To pose (something)" is to create a threat/problem/danger/risk/challenge that needs to be dealt with. Example: Everest poses a challenge to even the best climbers.
2 broke in: "Broke in" is the best choice here. "To break in (to a house)" is to enter without invitation and illegally. This is usually to commit theft, a robbery, or a burglary. The simple past tense is needed here because the event happened "last weekend" Example: "It is almost impossible to break in to Buckingham Palace". Note that this verb is irregular: break in/broke in/broken in.
3 apologize: "Apologize" is the best choice here. "To apologize" is "to say sorry". Example: "He apologized for what he did, but it sounded like he was lying". Note that the UK spelling of this term is different: "to apologise".

1 alarm: This is the right answer. This is a loud sound that is usually triggered in the event of an emergency to warn people. They are not only used in urgent situations. Most people need an "alarm clock" to wake up in the morning.
2 break in: This is the right answer. We usually use the term to "break in" with property. For example, to break in to a house, a car, a shop.
3 stranger: This is the correct answer. Be careful not to confuse the term "stranger" with the term "foreigner" which is someone from another country. Here's another example: "Children should never talk to strangers, especially if they have sweeties".
4 trick: This is the right answer! To "trick" someone means to falsely lead someone into thinking something is true. Synonyms include to "fool", to "deceive", to "mislead" or to "con".
