to single out | to catch on | to carry on

Fill in the blanks below with the appropriate expression. Each term is used once.

Remember to conjugate the verbs appropriately!

Lions try to single out 1 a young animal when attacking a group. They have a greater chance of success when this animal is separated from the others.

The President carried on 2 talking yesterday despite the rotten tomatoes the audience were throwing at him.

It seems unlikely that your idea for a transparent swimming costume will catch on 3, Philip.
1 to single out: This is correct. The expression 'to single (somebody, something) out' means 'to select from a group' or 'to isolate'. Example: 'She was singled out for special treatment by her teacher'. We need the infinitive form of the verb here, because when the verb 'to try' is followed by a second verb, this must be in the infinitive (with 'to'). Example: 'I will try to arrive on time'. This is the same usage as in the conversation, when Bruno says 'It would be unfair to single out just one'.
2 carried on: This is correct. The expression 'to carry on (doing something)' means 'to continue'. Example: 'If you carry on crying, I will have to leave'. We need the simple past form of the verb here, to describe a completed action in the past (which happened 'yesterday'). Note that the term 'to carry on' is followed by a verb ending in '-ing'. As we hear in the conversation, the term 'to carry on' can also be used alone, without a second verb: 'I'd like to carry on, if you don't mind'. Note that the verb 'to carry' is irregular: carry/carried/carried.
3 catch on: This is correct. The expression 'to catch on' means 'to become popular'. Example: 'Recycling has really caught on in recent years'. In this example, the future tense is used, formed by 'will' + infinitive (without 'to'). Note that the verb 'to catch' is irregular: catch/caught/caught.
Übung 2
"Someone has singled me out because of my ethnic origin ".

Brian means that someone because of his .
"Someone has singled me out because of my ethnic origin ".

Brian means that someone has discriminated against him 1 because of his racial background 2.
1 has discriminated against him: This is correct. Action motivated by racial differences is "discrimination". To "single (somebody, something) out" means to choose a person or persons from a wider group or "to isolate". Example: "The boss singled me out to lead the new project team."
1 has said he is single: This is not correct. "Single" means "alone" or "unmarried". Example: "I think you'll like my cousin Jock, girls. He's rich, handsome and single."
1 has betrayed him: This is not correct. To betray someone means to fail to keep a promise to that person. Example: "I feel so betrayed. He's leaving me for his secretary's brother!"
2 racial background: This is correct. Brian says that he has received racist (anti-English) abuse. "Ethnic origin" refers to an individual's racial group or background. "Race" is the term used to distinguish between human communities. African Americans, Tutsis and Jews are examples of ethnic groups.
2 dress style: This is not correct. The abuse that Brian has received is anti-English and has nothing to do with his style of clothes. You can dress like someone from another ethnic group, but that won't make you a member. You are born into an ethnic group, and remain a member for life.
2 sexual habits: This is not correct. The abuse that Brian has received is anti-English and has nothing to do with his sexual habits. Brian's sexual behavior is unlinked to the fact that he is English.
