Choose the TRUE statements from the list below.

There may be more than one correct answer!

Polly does not know her co-worker's exact address.

This is a true statement. Polly says "we're not sure" when the dispatcher asks for her co-worker's (Jean's) address. Polly knows only that Jean is in front of the "Garden of Eden", inside a phone booth.

Frank (the dispatcher) is not familiar with the "Garden of Eden".

This statement is false. Polly asks the dispatcher if he knows a place called the "Garden of Eden", and he replies "you better believe it". This exclamation is an emphatic way of saying "Yes!" or "Of course I know the 'Garden of Eden".

Polly's co-worker (Jean) will be waiting inside the "Garden of Eden".

This statement is false. Jean will be waiting inside a "phone booth", IN FRONT OF the "Garden of Eden".

The fare for the taxi will be at least $12 dollars.

This is a true statement. Frank explains that there is a "twelve dollar base charge" for the taxi, and that it will cost $1.50 per mile afterwards. This means that simply for sending the taxi to Conklin Avenue, the fare will be at least $12.00. A "fare" is a "fee" or "charge". We generally use the term "fare" when describing the "cost" of public transport. Example: The fare for the bus, the fare for the cab, etc.
