This is a true statement. Bruno explains that the past quarter has not been as "profitable as expected". In addition, Ira mentions that today Delavigne stock has "dropped 5.67 points", which means it has gone down by 5.67 points.
This is a false statement. The weather is not mentioned in this dialogue. Bruno does mention a "forecast", but it is a financial "forecast", or prediction - not a "weather forecast"!
This is a false statement. While share prices have gone down over the past quarter, there is no indication in the dialogue that "profits" have declined over the whole year. At no point in this dialogue are profits discussed. A "steady decline" refers to a continuous reduction, or downward trend.
This statement is correct. Ira says that Bruno "predicted growth of nearly 3 percent over last year's second quarter earnings", and that "since those figures were published this morning, (Delavigne Corp's) stock has already dropped 5.67 points". Ira clearly believes that Bruno's original financial predictions for Delavigne Corp were inaccurate. In this context, "to predict growth" is to state that financial results will get better.

1 sudden rise: This is correct. A "surge" is a sudden, sharp increase of something (electricity, popularity, soldiers etc). In the article it states "the second world war saw a surge in union membership", this means that during World War Two the number of workers joining the labor unions suddenly increased.
1 sharp decrease: This is increase. A "sharp decrease" might be called a "plunge", "plummet" or "crash", but not a "surge".
1 gradual emergence: This is incorrect. There is nothing gradual about a "surge".
2 continuing: This is correct. A "steady decline" is a decrease that takes place in a constant and even manner. When the article states that "(the unions") steady decline is not the global trend', it refers to the regular, constant reduction in union power over a long period of time. A "trend" is a prevailing tendency.
2 sharp: This is incorrect. "Steady" is the opposite of "sharp", which in this context describes a sudden or dramatic movement.
2 dramatic: This is incorrect. "Steady" does not mean "dramatic".
3 reach the highest point: This is correct. The verb "to peak" means to "reach the maximum level, highest point or zenith". Similarly, the noun "peak" describes the highest point or top of a mountain or hill. This article states that union membership "peaked during the 1950s". This means that during the 1950s, the number of people who joined a union reached its highest point or maximum level.
3 come to an end: This is incorrect. "To peak" does not mean to come to an end.
3 become well-known: This is incorrect. "To peak" does not mean to become well-known.
