This is correct. 'Thanks' is an abbreviated, but very common form of 'thank you'.
Ah, the tank. Massive weapon of destruction introduced in the first world war by the British during the battle of Cambrai. An effective killing machine for sure, but not the ideal way to express one's gratitude.
No 's' in the full form of 'thank you'. Thank you for remembering this.
This is correct. 'Thank you' is one of the most common ways to express one's gratitude.
Be careful! There is no apostrophe in 'Thanks'. Apostrophes are generally used to contract two terms or to express possession. For example: John's tank is enormous OR She ISN'T fond of tanks.

• buy some food 1
• go to the toilet 2
Icarus will:
• put gas in the car 3
• check the tire pressure 4
• put gas in the car 3
• check the tire pressure 4
1 buy some food: This is correct. Philip says that he is "going to go get some snacks". A "snack" refers to a light or quick meal or food that is eaten between meals. Philip probably means that he will buy chocolate, candy ("sweets" in UK English), or potato chips ("crisps" in UK English).
1 pay for the gas: This is incorrect. Philip says that he is "going to go get some snacks". This does not mean that he will pay for gas. "Gas" refers to fuel that is used for automobiles.
1 buy a road map: This is incorrect. Philip says that he is "going to go get some snacks". This does not mean that he will buy a road map. A "road map" is used by motorists and describes a plan that shows road details and distances.
1 hold up the store with a banana: This is incorrect. Philip says that he is "going to go get some snacks". This does not mean he will hold up the store with a banana. "To hold up (a bank)" is to "rob" it or demand money by theft.
2 go to the toilet: This is correct. Philip says that he will "use the rest room". A "rest room" is a room in a public building that contains toilets (or lavatories) and washing facilities.
2 have a rest: This is incorrect. Philip says that he will "use the rest room". This does not mean that he wants to have a rest.
2 repair the car: This is incorrect. Philip says that he will "use the rest room". This does not mean that he wants to repair the vehicle.
2 walk like an Egyptian: This is incorrect. Only the Bangles can walk like an Egyptian in the correct manner.
3 put gas in the car: This is correct. Philip asks Icarus to "fill up the tank". "To fill up (a car)" is to put fuel (gas or petrol) in it so that the fuel reservoir is full. A "tank" refers to the fuel reservoir of a vehicle that contains gas (or petrol).
3 check the oil level: This is incorrect. Philip asks Icarus to "fill up the tank". This does not mean that he wants Icarus to check the oil level. The "oil level" refers to the amount of lubricant remaining in the car engine.
3 clean the car interior: This is incorrect. Icarus asks an attendant to wash the "windshield", but Philip does not request Icarus to clean the interior of the car.
3 find a tank: This is incorrect. Philip asks Icarus to "fill up the tank". Philip is referring to the fuel reservoir of the vehicle, not an armoured car.
4 check the tire pressure: This is correct. Philip asks Icarus to "check the tires". This means that he wants Icarus to check the air pressure in the tires. A "tire" ("tyre" in UK English) refers to the ring of rubber that surrounds the wheels of a car. The "air pressure (in a tire)" generally refers to the amount of air in the tire, and more specifically to the exertion of force upon the surface of the tire.
4 check the lights: This is incorrect. Philip asks Icarus to "check the tires". This doesn't mean that Philip wants Icarus to check the lights of the car.
4 check the brakes: This is incorrect. Philip asks Icarus to "check the tires". This does not mean that Philip wants Icarus to check the brakes of the car. The "brakes" of a car refer to the mechanisms that reduce the speed of a vehicle.
4 check the state of his pants: This is incorrect. Icarus' pants are in perfect condition, but his little "Icky" is functioning badly.

1 fill up: To "fill up" a car (with gas or petrol) is to put fuel into a car until it is full. Philip asks Icarus to "fill up the tank", meaning he wants Icarus to put gas in the vehicle. Note, to be "full up" is have a full stomach; to eat a maximum amount of food.
2 pump: A "gas pump" is a machine that transfers fuel to a vehicle. It is normal to "fill up" the "tank" of vehicle using a "pump". To "pump up (a tire)" is to inflate it with air.
3 unleaded: "Unleaded gas" is a type of gasoline without lead that is used to fuel vehicles in order to reduce pollution. In the audio, Icarus asks for "premium unleaded gasoline" which usually costs more and gives a better motor vehicle engine performance.
4 tank: A "(gas, petrol, fuel) tank" is a metal reservoir or container that holds the fuel for a vehicle. Philip asks Icarus to "fill up the tank". Note, a "tank" can also refer to an armored military vehicle.
5 hood: The "hood" (US) ("bonnet", UK) of a vehicle is the metal cover (or lid) of the part of the car that holds the engine. To access the car motor, you usually have to "lift up", "open" or "pop" the hood. The hood is situated at the front of a vehicle, and the "trunk" (US) ("boot" UK) is situated at the back of a vehicle.
6 oil: "(Machine) oil" is a petroleum derivative that is used to lubricate a machine such as a motor or engine. The "oil level" refers to the amount of lubricant remaining in the car engine.
7 tires: A "tire" (US) or "tyre" (UK) is a rubber band around a wheel, for example around the 4 wheels of a car or the 2 wheels of a bike. Tires are made of rubber. If one is deflated then we say that it is "flat".
8 windshield: The "windshield" (US) or "windscreen" (UK) is a protective piece of glass or plastic which protects the car's driver and passengers from objects and the elements. In the audio, Icarus asks for the windshield to be washed because it has a lot of dead insects on it.
9 trunk: The "trunk" (US) or "boot" (UK) of a car refers to the storage space generally located in the back of a car.It is very useful for storage and criminal purposes.

1 delighted: This is the best choice for an informal letter. "Delighted" means "enthralled", "very happy" or "greatly pleased": one can be "delighted" by any good news. Example: She was delighted when she saw her neighbour was a young, handsome man.
1 disgusted: This is not correct. To be "disgusted" is to be shocked or sickened. Example: "I am disgusted by your refusal to allow me two hours off work to attend my mother's funeral."
1 ravished: This is not correct. To be "ravished" is literally to be abducted with violence, or raped. Someone who is "ravishing" is very beautiful.
1 encountered: This is not correct. "To encounter" is a literary form of "to meet". "I was on my way to visit grandma when I encountered a large wolf."
2 hear about: This is correct. "To hear about (the news)" is to learn about it. Example: I heard about the assassination of JFK while staying in a Thai prison. This is a useful term to use when discovering new events.
2 listen to: This is not correct. "To listen to (the news)" is to make an active effort to hear it. When information is passed to us from another source without us necessarily seeking it, we have to use the verb "to hear". "Listening" is a voluntary activity; "hearing" is involuntary.
2 inherit: This verb cannot be used here. "To inherit (money)" is to obtain it from someone after their death.
2 perceive: This is not correct. "To perceive" is a formal way of saying "to become aware of", "to notice", "to understand".
3 birth: This is correct. Bob is writing his letter to announce the "birth" of his daughter, so it would make sense to refer to this event. A "birth" refers literally to the beginning of someone's life, and figuratively to the beginning of any event (the birth of an organisation, of a company). Example: My entire family was present at the birth of my son.
3 pregnancy: This is not correct. "Pregnancy" is the state of a woman awaiting the birth of her child. Bob's wife, Sophie, has had her pregnancy, and she is no longer pregnant.
3 anniversary: This is not correct. In English, "anniversaries" mark the dates of significant events, marriages, or deaths. The celebration of your birth is your birthday. "Tomorrow will be the sixth anniversary of my father's death."
3 couch: This is not correct. A "couch" or "sofa" is a long, soft chair, often with cushions, designed to be used by more than one person at once.
4 congratulations: This is correct. "Congratulations" is the standard expression when reacting to good news. To "send someone your congratulations" is to express your pleasure at their success.
4 welcome: This is not correct. "To welcome" is "to accept" or "to admit with enthusiasm". It is common to welcome a baby into the world, but not to send a baby a "welcome".
4 good luck: This is not correct. You wish someone "good luck" before an event; "congratulations" if the outcome is successful.
4 thoughts: This is not correct. "Congratulations" are for good news; "thoughts" are for bad news. The expression "my thoughts are with you" is commonly used to express sympathy at a tragic time. A "thought" is the process of thinking.
5 lovely: This is correct. "Lovely" is a lovely word used to describe things that are lovely. Lovely can mean beautiful, graceful, adorable, wonderful, agreeable... Calling Bob's wife "lovely" would be an appropriate thing to do.
5 sympathetic: This is not correct. In English, the term sympathetic can't be used to compliment the way someone looks or dresses or if they are "nice". The primary sense of the term in English is "understanding" or "compassionate", for example: My wife wasn't very sympathetic when my father died, and she wouldn't let me attend the funeral.
5 idiotic: This is not correct. "Idiotic" means "very stupid". Even if you felt Bob's wife merited such a description, you would hardly put it in a letter like this one.
5 pregnant: This is not correct. A "pregnant" woman is awaiting the birth of her child. Bob's wife has just given birth and is this no longer pregnant.
6 health and happiness: This is the best answer. To wish someone "(all the) health and happiness (in the world)" is a very nice thing to say, after all what more do parents want for their children? Apart from good looks, good grades, a good job, a rich spouse, etc.
6 war and peace : This is not correct. You may want to wish peace for the world, but wishing war on anyone is not very nice.
6 love and marriage: This is not correct. The baby is barely one week old. It shouldn't be thinking about romance yet!
6 diet and exercise: This is not correct. The baby is barely one week old. It probably doesn't need to lose weight.
7 In reply to: This is correct. "In reply to (your letter)" is commonly used at the start of a sentence to refer to a previous letter, and to state your response. Example: In reply to your job advertisement, please find enclosed my CV and cover letter.
7 In reference to: This is not correct. The expression "in reference to" is very formal, and appropriate only in a business letter. "In reference to your letter of June 21, our legal team denies all responsibility in the affair."
7 Please find enclosed: This is not correct. The expression "please find enclosed" is used to draw attention to an item, usually a cheque or a document, attached to a letter. "Please find enclosed a copy of my CV."
7 In addition to: This is not correct. The expression "in addition to" means "as well as". "I've had a tough week. In addition to my job, I've had to look after three five-year-old boys!"
8 look forward: This is correct. To "look forward to (doing something)" is to be excited and impatient about it or to anticipate it with pleasure. "I look forward to seeing you (on Saturday)" is a polite expression of anticipation.
8 wish: This is not correct. "I wish to SEE you" is correct, however this blank is followed by a verb in the gerund (seeing).
8 hope: This is not correct. "I hope to SEE you" is perfectly correct, however this blank is followed by a verb in the gerund (seeing).
8 hate: This is incorrect. To "hate (to do something)" is to detest doing it. The verb is never used to express "looking forward to" an event and can be followed by a verb in the full infinitive or directly by the gerund with little difference in meaning: to hate doing or to do something.
9 Best wishes: This is the best choice. We can close most non-business correspondence in this way. Other examples of closing a letter to friends and acquaintances: warm wishes/best regards/sincerely/with thanks.
9 May the force be with you: This is not correct. "Best wishes" is a standard way of closing non-business correspondence. "May the force be with you" might pass in an informal note between close friends who were Star Wars fanatics.
9 Get well soon: This is not correct. "Get well soon" is used to wish people who are ill a quick recovery, Bob does not say that he (or anyone else) is ill.
9 Tanks you: Ah, the tank. Massive weapon of destruction introduced in the first world war by the British during the battle of Cambrai. An effective killing machine for sure, but not the ideal word to end a letter.

Philip
1 thanks: 'Thanks' is an abbreviated, but very common form of 'thank you'. In SMS messages, 'tks' (and 'thx') is a common abbreviation of 'thanks'.
2 for: In SMS language (or 'text speak'), '4' is the common abbreviated form of the preposition 'for'. Other letters are commonly used: '2' for 'to', 'two' or 'too'; 'U2' for 'you too'; 'B4' for 'before'; 'L8r' for 'later'; 'Gr8' for 'great'.
3 your: In SMS messages, 'your' is often abbreviated as 'ur' or 'UR'. 'Your' is the possessive adjective for the second person.
4 though: 'Tho' is a common abbreviation of the term 'though'. When placed at the end of a sentence (as is the case in Philip's SMS message), 'though' shares a similar meaning with 'however'. Example: She said she enjoyed the party; I think she might be lying though. 'Though' also shares a similar meaning with 'despite the fact that' and 'although'. Example: Although (or though) it rained a lot, we enjoyed our party.
5 be: The future tense 'will + verb' is always formed without the preposition 'to'. In this case, the verb '(to) be' is used. 'Be' is commonly abbreviated as the letter 'b' in SMS messages. Example: Who will b at the party?
6 See you: In SMS messages, 'c u' (or 'cu') is a common abbreviated form of the expression 'see you'. 'See you' (or 'see ya') is an informal way to say 'good-bye' or 'I'll see you later'. It is often spoken or used in text messages or emails.
