Übung 1
Police found Trotter circling Nelson's Column.
This means that Trotter was going Nelson's Column.
This means that Trotter was going Nelson's Column.
Police found Trotter circling Nelson's Column.
This means that Trotter was going around Nelson's Column.
This means that Trotter was going around Nelson's Column.
around: This is the correct answer. The verb "to circle" indicates "going around" or "turning in circles". For example: a plane might circle before finally landing.
over: To go "over" something indicates that one is traveling above or on top of it. For example: planes fly over the clouds. In this case Trotter was circling the column which means that he was traveling round and round it. Note that in the figurative sense, "to go over" something means to "review" or "look over" it.
under: To travel "under" something is to travel "below" or "beneath" it. Moira states that Trotter is "circling around" the column, which indicates that he is making circles around it.
through: As a preposition of place, "through" indicates movement in and out of a location, or entering one side and exiting out the other. One can go through a tunnel or through a doorway. Note that this is only one of the many uses of the term "through". It would be physically impossible for Trotter to pass through Nelson's Column as it is made of granite. He may be a wizard, but he's not that clever!

1 ransom: "Ransom" is the right answer. A "ransom" is an amount of money demanded (under threat) as payment for the release of a captured person. Here's another example: "The businessman paid the £4 million ransom for his son, but his captors killed him anyway. You can't trust criminals".
2 encircled: "Encircled" is the correct answer. Other useful synonyms for to "encircle" include "hem in" or in this context "cordon off". Some difficult phrasal verbs today! For example, "The police encircled the area. There was a suspicious package, so they called the bomb squad."
3 loudspeaker: "Loudspeaker" is the correct term here. A loudspeaker is a device that transforms a voice or electrical signals into loud sounds. It increases the volume and is useful when talking to a large group of people, for example at a demonstration or march.
4 rescue: "Rescue" is the right answer. To "rescue" means to "save" or to "recover from danger". Another example of this is: "After surviving three weeks on the side of the glacier by eating his fingers and toes, a helicopter finally came to rescue him."
5 injured: "Injured" is the term we were looking for. To "injure" here means to "hurt" or "cause bodily harm". It is used in the adjective form in the dialogue. The noun is "injury". (Don't forget it becomes "injuries" in the plural). You now know everything about this word!
