Select the TRUE statements from the list below.

There may be more than one correct answer!

Donna agrees to pay $10,000 for Mindmelt.

This is incorrect. Fred gives Donna the Mindmelt device and she will be paid $10,000 to test it.

Donna has to convince Fred Farmer to send her Mindmelt.

This is not a right choice. Donna says "I'm going to need a little more convincing, I'm afraid". It is in fact Fred who has to convince Donna.

Mindmelt is Fred Farmer's newest product.

This is correct. Fred says "Our latest product – Mindmelt - is literally a miracle in a box". "Newest" has the same meaning as "latest" or "most recent". By saying "miracle in a box", Fred means that the Mindmelt device contains technology that is very impressive.

Fred Farmer gives Donna Mindmelt because she is well known in her field.

This is a right choice. Fred says to Donna "as you're a high-profile psychologist, the device is yours for free". Someone or something with a "high profile" has a well-publicized presence or stance. For example: The Olympic Games is a high-profile sports event.
