Back when I was in the jungles of Vietnam, I was shot in the arm by a Viet Cong sniper named Charlie. The bullet hit my arm, and caused a serious injury 1 (a wound, physical damage, trauma). I was in very bad condition 2 (a state of health), and so my fellow soldiers airlifted me back to our base in Hanoi in a green helicopter.

1 injury: Another word for "wound" is "injury". Both terms refer to damage to the body (physical and sometimes even mental). For example: I suffered an injury when the dentist drilled a hole in my cheek. In the text about Anosmia, we read that the condition can be caused by severe head "injuries".
2 condition: A "condition" is defined as a "state of health." The word "condition" has many different meanings, but in this context, a condition is a "health problem", "sickness" or even a disease (though these terms aren't totally synonymous). Example: She has a skin condition, and she gets big red buttons when she eats meat.
Ejercicio 2
Horatio needed better to production.
Horatio needed better conditions 1 to increase 2 production.
1 conditions: Horatio needs better conditions (a laboratory, more equipment, assistants, etc.) in order to increase production. In this context, "conditions" refer to circumstances or settings which are conducive to manufacturing perfumes.
1 ideas: Bruno and Horatio seem to have a lot of good ideas already. Horatio does not require "better ideas" in order to manufacture more perfumes, but rather he needs better conditions.
1 weather: The weather is always nice in San Francisco! This is not what Horatio "needs" or "requires" in order to increase production.
2 increase: Horatio needs better conditions in order to "increase" production. "To increase (the price)" is to raise or augment it, for example: We've increased the price of our pickles from 3 dollars to 4. Bruno and Horatio are trying to manufacture more perfumes, and in order to do this, they require better equipment, and better "conditions" in general.
2 decrease: "To decrease" is actually the opposite of the verb "to increase". To "decrease" means to "reduce" or to "lessen". For example: Our sales our decreasing because of our poor reputation. Horatio and Bruno are trying to "increase" production, not "decrease" it.
2 market: One can "market" a product, but not "market a production". In this sentence, "production" refers to the process of manufacturing and creating perfumes, not to the perfumes themselves.

The following sentences are all taken from the telephone call. Complete them with the appropriate terms!
Jean: I want to my home from burglars please.
Vanessa: We'll a for the installation.
Vanessa: Are they in good ?
Jean: I want to my home from burglars please.
Vanessa: We'll a for the installation.
Vanessa: Are they in good ?
The following sentences are all taken from the telephone call. Complete them with the appropriate terms!
Jean: I want to protect 1 my home from burglars please.
Vanessa: We'll fix 2 a date 3 for the installation.
Vanessa: Are they in good condition 4?
Jean: I want to protect 1 my home from burglars please.
Vanessa: We'll fix 2 a date 3 for the installation.
Vanessa: Are they in good condition 4?
1 protect: This is the best choice here. Other ways of saying to "protect" are to "guard" or "defend". For example "To protect your dog from fleas, you should give him a bath every six months".
1 project: Incorrect. A "project" is a "plan" and "to project" means to reach out into the future. This is not what Jean said, and it doesn't make sense here.
1 prevent: Incorrect - although the meaning is close. We prevent something from happening. It means to "stop" or "avert". If we want to use this word in this context, we would say "I want to prevent burglaries from happening in my home"
2 fix: This is the correct choice. In this context "fix" means to "set up" or "arrange". This is a very common term in business and a useful one to note down: to "fix a meeting", to "fix an appointment", to "fix a time" and so on.
2 ticket: This is not the right answer. A "ticket" is a piece of paper allowing access to a concert, a train, a part etc. This was not the term used in the dialogue and it does not make sense here.
2 fit: This is not the right answer. To "fit in (with a group)" is to integrate and be accepted into a group. This was not the term used in the dialogue and it does not make sense here.
3 date: This is the right answer. As well as being a simple date in the month (June 26th, November 1st, etc.), we also use this word in romantic situations: "I have a date (a romantic meeting!) with a fireman on Saturday! I hope he's hot!". In the context of the dialogue, the "date" is a time in the future when a technician will visit Jean.
3 day: Wrong choice! "Day" and "date" sound similar, but don't get them confused! A day is "Monday", "Tuesday" etc. This is a very common mistake, so be careful!
3 rate: This is the wrong choice. "Rate" rhymes with "date", but is not the right answer here. A "rate" is a charge for a service. For example, "The water rates are very low in the countryside, but there's a good reason. If you drink the water, you could die!"
4 condition: "Condition" is the right choice. The condition of something is the "state" it is in: "new", "good", "worn", "broken" etc. For example, "The things I buy on Free-Bay.com are always in bad condition.".
4 technician: Sorry, no. A "technician" is a technical expert. Examples of technicians are a "plumber", an "electrician", an "IT specialist". It is a profession. This word is used in the dialogue, but not here.
4 commission: This is incorrect. "Commission" is the "bonus money" you get for selling something. A salesperson has a basic salary plus "commission" – a percentage on anything he or she sells. This term is not mentioned in the recording.

By the way, we wouldn't say no to a pickle at twice that price.
