Ejercicio 1
At the end of the dialogue, Sam tells Bruno and Icarus "I'm all ears".
What does he mean by this?

At the end of the dialogue, Sam tells Bruno and Icarus "I'm all ears".
What does he mean by this?
Sam is not reassuring Bruno and Icarus of his "trustworthiness", rather he is announcing that he is listening to them.
Sam is not encouraging Bruno and Icarus to be careful because of people listening to their conversation, rather he is announcing to them that he is listening.
Sam only has two ears. However his wife reports that Sam does in fact have a floating third nipple. Amazing!
Sam's expression is not one of agreement. He is expressing that he is listening to Bruno and Icarus, not that he agrees with what they are saying.
This is correct. The idiom "I'm all ears" is a common English expression (both American and British) which indicates that the speaker is listening attentively.

1 I'm all ears: "I'm all ears" is the best choice here. We use this expression to say that we are listening carefully to what someone is saying, or that we are "paying attention". In the dialogue, Hannah says that she is "all ears", meaning that she is ready to listen carefully to Bruno's proposition. Example: "-Are you listening to me? -Of course, I'm all ears".
2 get to the bottom of something: This is the best choice here. To "get to the bottom (of a problem)" is to understand or resolve it. In the dialogue, Bruno wants to get to the bottom of the drop in sales at a Paris store. Example: "Herlock Sholmes is very good at getting to the bottom of mysteries."
3 fall off: "Fall off" is the best choice here. In this context, (sales) which are "falling off" are "dropping", "falling", or "decreasing". In another context, to "fall off (a chair)" is to "fall from one place to another" (usually the floor or ground). Example: "The market for sunglasses is falling off now it's December".
