Übung 1
Select the TRUE statement (or statements) from the list below, according to the article you just read.
Select the TRUE statement (or statements) from the list below, according to the article you just read.
This statement is false. The article states that "there are an estimated 12 million immigrants of Mexican origin working illegally in the US".
This statement is false. There is no information in the article which states that Pedro Sanchez received a job offer from Harold Warbuckle before leaving for the US.
This statement is false. The article refers to "indiscretions" committed by Harold Warbuckle and mentions 3 scandals that he has been involved with. It would be incorrect to say that Warbuckle has had no problems with the media. An "indiscretion" refers to a mistake or an error. "Up until now" is an expression synonymous with "before this moment" or "in the past".
This is a true statement. The article states that Harold Warbuckle "has been sheltering illegal immigrants on his huge ranch", and that "Mexican immigrants without papers are working... on his estate." An "illegal immigrant" enters a country without the legal authorisation to live and work there. "To shelter (someone)" is to protect them or give them refuge. The terms "ranch" and "estate" refer to large pieces of land.

Mrs. Lee says to Kevin, "They are all well taken care of".
What does she mean by this?

Mrs. Lee says to Kevin, "They are all well taken care of".
What does she mean by this?
What does she mean by this?
Although a worker who is "well taken care of" implies that their wages or salaries is well considered, "they" here refers to the workers.
"To be well taken care of" means "well provided for" or "supported". We can say, for example: "Good parents make sure that their children are well taken care of". It often carries the financial implication of being compensated.
"Wages" is not the subject of the sentence. "They" here refers to the workers.
Although Mrs. Lee makes a reference to the workers sleeping at the factory, "to be well taken care of" does not necessarily imply being housed. This is not the best choice here.

Mrs Lee says to Kevin, "They are all well taken care of."
What does she mean by this?
What does she mean by this?
"To be well taken care of" means "well provided for" or "supported". We can say, for example: "Good parents make sure that their children are well taken care of". It often carries the financial implication of being compensated, however in this case it is fair to assume that Mrs Lee is also referring to Kevin's concern in this scene: the working conditions at the factory.
This is not the best choice here. Although Mrs Lee makes a reference to the workers sleeping at the factory, "to be well taken care of" does not necessarily mean that they are being housed or "sheltered". "Shelter" refers to "protection" or "refuge".
To be "well taken care of" means to be "provided for" or "attended to". This idea doesn't express that the money or wages for the workers is divided "evenly" or "equally" among them.
Although a worker who is "well taken care of" implies that their wages or salaries are well considered, "they" here refers to the workers.
