Edward is in an elevator. From the list below, select the synonym of "elevator".
Edward is in an elevator. From the list below, select the synonym of "elevator".
This is not correct. A "cable car" is a box pulled along through the air or up steep hills with the help of a cable or thick wire. This does not share the same meaning with "elevator".
This is not correct. A "pulley" is a very simple machine used for lifting goods with rope and a wheel. They are not used for carrying humans!
"Lift" is the best choice here. The term "elevator" is used in the US, whereas the UK term is "lift". They both describe a box which travels up and down a shaft or tunnel, used for transporting people or objects from one end to the other.
This is not correct. An "escalator" is a moving staircase. This does not share the same meaning with "elevator", although the two can serve a similar purpose.

1 an elevator: This is the right answer. Eva says "I'm Eva, the musical elevator". An "elevator" is a machine which carries you to different floors or levels of a building. In the UK, the term "lift" is used to describe these useful devices!
1 an elevator attendant: This is not the best choice. An "elevator attendant" is an employee of a building, hotel, etc. whose job is to assist people using the elevator (US) or "lift" (UK). Eva is not a person: she is the elevator itself!
1 Harold's favourite singer: This is not the best choice. There is no suggestion that Eva is Harold's favourite singer, although he does enjoy her song.
1 a singing receptionist: This is not the best choice. A "receptionist" is an employee who welcomes people to an office, and often answers the phones. This is not Eva's job, although Eva does sing!
2 he is fat: This is the best choice here. Eva sings that "the person I'm carrying is overweight" and tells Harold that there is "too much food on his big, fat plate". If someone is "overweight", they are "fat" or "too heavy". Eva is being rather rude to Harold in her song!
2 the elevator is broken: This is incorrect. There is no suggestion that the elevator is "broken" or experiencing problems. At the end of the song, Eva says "Floor 6". This means that she has successfully delivered Harold to his destination.
2 she wants to get fit: This is incorrect. Eva tells Harold "If I were you, I'd try to get fit". This construction means that Harold should get fit, not Eva. To "get fit", is to become more healthy, sporty, or active, or to get in better physical shape. "If I were you, I would..." is a good way of giving someone advice.
2 floor 6 is too far: This is incorrect. Eva sings "Floor 6 isn't far away", meaning that it is NOT too far for her to carry Harold.
3 TRUE: This is the right choice. Harold says "it sure it is nice to have some elevator music". If something is "nice", then we "like" or "enjoy" it. Harold is enjoying the music in the elevator.
3 FALSE: This is not a false statement.
