Polly tells Luna that she'll "see to it" that everybody who makes a suggestion remains anonymous. Using the context of the dialogue to help you, choose the phrase which best expresses the meaning of the idiom "I'll see to it".
Polly tells Luna that she'll "see to it" that everybody who makes a suggestion remains anonymous. Using the context of the dialogue to help you, choose the phrase which best expresses the meaning of the idiom "I'll see to it".
This is the correct choice. "I'll see to it" by itself, or as the introductory clause in a sentence, means "I will make sure" or "I'll take care of it".
"I'll examine this problem closely" does not express the same meaning as the expression "I'll see to it". We shouldn't interpret Polly's phrase literally!
"I don't care" does not express the same meaning as the expression "I'll see to it".
This is wrong, just wrong. You should know why. Electron microscopes are expensive, and Polly doesn't have access to an electron microscope. Perhaps Horatio has one in his laboratory, but he can be so irritable when people touch his personal items.
Übung 2
Fill in the blanks below with either 'to make' or 'to do'
Remember to conjugate the verbs appropriately

Polly: Can't you anything right, Jean? I told you sure my telephone was working for the conference call later this afternoon!

Jean: But Miss Polly, I am my job as best I can. I am a man, not a machine.

Polly: But your job is to fix the machines, not to sit around nothing!

Jean: Oh la la. Please don't yell. It hurts my ears and my feelings.
Fill in the blanks below with either 'to make' or 'to do'
Remember to conjugate the verbs appropriately

Polly: Can't you do 1 anything right, Jean? I told you to make 2 sure my telephone was working for the conference call later this afternoon!

Jean: But Miss Polly, I am doing 3 my job as best I can. I am a man, not a machine.

Polly: But your job is to fix the machines, not to sit around doing 4 nothing!

Jean: Oh la la. Please don't yell. It hurts my ears and my feelings.
1 do: We use the verb 'to do' here to indicate the idea of performing an action. This is the primary use of the verb 'to do'. Here we use the infinitive form of the verb (without 'to') following the auxiliary 'can't'. Polly is expressing her frustration with Jean because of his inability to do things correctly.
2 to make: 'To make sure of something' is to verify something. We must use the verb 'to make' in this construction. We use the full infinitive form of the verb (with 'to') following the conjugated verb 'I told'.
3 doing: The expression 'to do one's job' is formed with the verb 'to do'. This expression has a few meanings: in the imperative voice (Do your job!) it is an instruction to work, or work harder. Jean's statement 'I am doing my job as best I can' expresses that he is working as well as he can at his job. We use the progressive form of the verb here to indicate that Jean is in the act of 'doing his job', and that this is an action in progress. The auxiliary 'am' is followed by a verb in the 'ING' form.
4 doing: This construction requires the verb 'to do'. 'To do' is being used here to indicate the action of 'doing' something (or nothing). Polly is criticizing Jean for being lazy or not doing his job. 'To do nothing' indicates the idea of being lazy and inactive. We use the progressive form of the verb 'doing' here.
Übung 3
"You are scheduled for a root canal, so be sure not to eat anything at least six hours prior to your surgery."

Which of the following phrases could replace the expression "be sure not to eat anything", and express the SAME meaning? There may be more than one correct answer!
"You are scheduled for a root canal, so be sure not to eat anything at least six hours prior to your surgery."

Which of the following phrases could replace the expression "be sure not to eat anything", and express the SAME meaning? There may be more than one correct answer!
The expression "Don't fail to (call me)" is a reminder to do something. However using it here would be a reminder to "eat something", whereas the dentist's note is a reminder NOT to eat anything. In order to use this expression properly in this context, we might say "Don't fail to come on an empty-stomach" in order to remind someone NOT to eat something!
The imperative construction "you should" is very close to the meaning of "be sure to" in this and most other contexts. "You shouldn't (eat)" is a strong suggestion not to eat. "Be sure (not to eat)" is an instruction not to eat.
The expression "be sure to" carries a sense of strong suggestion, but the phrase "you couldn't (you could not)" does not express the same meaning. Although both expressions are imperative constructions, "you couldn't" expresses a sense of inability or impossibility, and not suggestion.
The expression "make sure that (you call)" is synonymous with "be sure to (call)". The two expressions are virtually interchangeable.
Übung 4
I just wanted to double check that there hasn't been a mistake.

From the list below, select the term which is closest in meaning to the verb "to double check".
I just wanted to double check that there hasn't been a mistake.

From the list below, select the term which is closest in meaning to the verb "to double check".
"To tell (a story)" is to "recount" it. This is unrelated in meaning to the term "to double check".
"To double check" is to "make sure" or "make certain". Icarus wants to be sure that there isn't an error on the ingredients invoice. Example: "Please double check your homework to make sure that there are no spelling mistakes".
"To identify (a problem)" is to "locate", "determine", or "establish" a problem. This is unrelated in meaning to the term "to double check".
"To prove (that someone is guilty)" is to "establish" or "determine" that they are guilty. This is unrelated in meaning to the term "to double check".
Übung 5
Bruno asks the IT people to "check that all the cables are plugged in properly".

How else could we express this?

" that all the are ."
Bruno asks the IT people to "check that all the cables are plugged in properly".

How else could we express this?

"Make sure 1 that all the leads 2 are connected 3 correctly 4."
1 Make sure: This is the right answer. "Make sure" is a nice way of saying "check" or "verify". It is fairly neutral and can be used in both business and everyday situations. Example: "I made sure the window was open before I jumped out of it".
1 Observe: "Observe" cannot be used as a synonym for "check". "Observe" means to watch without participating actively, which is not the case when checking cables. For example: "he observed the boys playing football on the motorway but said nothing, even when they scored a goal".
1 Reassure yourself: This is incorrect. To "reassure" someone is to calm them down or make them less anxious. It is very rarely used as a reflexive, and does not make sense here.
2 leads: "Leads (UK)" is the best answer here. "Leads" is often used as synonym for "cables" in British English. "Wires" can also replace the term "cables" without changing the meaning. They all serve the same purpose. Example: "Is this a lead, a wire, or a cable? -How should I know? They're all the same!".
2 printers: A printer is a machine that produces a paper copy of data from a computer. It cannot be used a synonym for cables, no matter how hard you try!
2 CD drive: This is a device that reads a compact disc. It cannot be used as a synonym for cables, no matter how hard you try!
3 connected: "Connected" is the right answer. "Plugged in" has the same meaning as "connected". It is often used to describe linking an electronic device to a power source. For example, "I tried everything to make the television work before I realised that I hadn't plugged it in!".
3 branched: "Branched" cannot be used as a synonym of "plug in". Branched conveys the idea of something being put into branches, for example,"the road branched into two".
3 assembled: Assemble can mean to put or fit together, but it is not used in technical language to describe connecting cables.
4 correctly: This is correct adverb to go after "plugged in". In this context "correctly" is a synonym of "properly".
4 nicely: "Nicely" is not used in technical language like this. It is used in more general or informal situations to describe doing something in a pleasant or agreeable way. For example: "he sings nicely", or "she refused but at least she said "no" nicely".
4 good: "Good" is an adjective. However, after a verb like "plugged in" we need an adverb. We could say the wires are plugged in "well", though this is a lot less natural than "correctly".
