Bruno assured Terrance Cashman that after fifteen years of hard work, his company would eventually turn into a multi-national corporation. Bruno believed wholeheartedly in the success of Delavigne Corp.
eventually: 'Eventually' expresses the sense of a change 'over time' or the idea of a 'long-term process'. In this case, Bruno assures Terrance that 'over time' or 'eventually', the Delavigne Corporation will become successful.
possibly: 'Possibly' indicates an 'uncertainty'. In this sentence, the word which indicates certainty is 'reassures'. It's true that 'would' often signals possibility, and introduces conditional constructions. However, in this particular case, 'would' is being used as the past tense auxiliary of 'will'. We use the past tense here because it was established earlier on in the paragraph (Bruno assured Terrance Cashman).

"Suddenly" means "abruptly" or "without warning", for example: While I was walking in the park it suddenly started raining.

"Possibly" indicates possibility or chance. Often it is synonymous with "maybe", for example: That is possibly the worst idea I have ever had.
"Fortunately" is synonymous with the term "lucky". For example: Fortunately, I had my umbrella when it started raining. Using "fortunately" here would express that Bruno was "lucky", or had the good fortune to transform Xavier's perfume shop. This is not what the term "eventually" indicates.

This is a true statement. Bethany tells Donna that she is "doing great business" as well as "making a name for herself". Both of these statements indicate that Bethany is successful professionally at the moment. To "make a name for oneself" is to establish oneself (in a field or profession).
This statement is false. At no point in the dialogue does Bethany say she is going to "give up" her work or stop working "altogether" (or completely). Bethany is considering putting her career "on hold" if she decides to have her baby. To "put (something) on hold" is to delay or postpone it.
This statement is false. Bethany tells Donna that she is "working reasonable hours", which indicates that she is actually quite happy with her work schedule.
This statement is false. At no point in the dialogue does Bethany decide not to keep the baby. Bethany tells Donna "I don't know if I should keep the baby" which indicates that she hasn't made her decision yet.
This is a true statement. Bethany tells Donna "with a baby, I'll have to put my career on hold". To put (a career) "on hold" refers to taking a break from it, or stopping it temporarily. As Bethany tells Donna, her career is going well and if she stops now she "may never get back to where (she) was". One can also be put on hold by a telephone operator whilst waiting to be connected to someone. Example: -Hello, can I speak to Mr Delavigne please? -Certainly, please hold.

This statement is false. After hearing what Polly has to say, Kevin has decided to "downgrade", or "change" his ticket to a lower price and class.
This statement is true. Polly tells Kevin, "If you still wish to travel in business class, the extra cost will be deducted from your next check". "To deduct" and to "take (money) away" are synonymous in this context: to deduct money from someone is to reduce their pay, or take part of their money.
This statement is true. Polly says: "all plane tickets purchased by the company must be in economy class". This means that the corporation will NOT pay for its employees to fly business class, although the employee may choose to pay the difference and upgrade with their own money.

In this text, "eventually" indicates that it took time for Bruno to transform Xavier's perfume shop into a large corporation, or that it didn't happen immediately.
1 Suddenly: "Suddenly" means "abruptly" or "without warning". For example: While I was walking in the park, it suddenly started raining.

1 Fortunately: "Fortunately" is synonymous with the term "lucky". For example: Fortunately, I had my umbrella when it started raining. Using "fortunately" here would express that Bruno was "lucky", or had the good fortune to transform Xavier's perfume shop. This is not what the term "eventually" indicates.
