Ejercicio 2
What is Polly's general complaint in this letter to Bob?
What is Polly's general complaint in this letter to Bob?
This is a misinterpretation of what Polly writes. She writes that "the network has been down for an entire week". This does not mean the computer network at Delavigne crashes "weekly" or once a week.
Polly actually writes that she enjoys the chance to practice her cursive writing.
Polly writes that "modern companies" are dependant upon their "information and technology systems", but this is not problem but a fact. This is not what Polly is complaining about in the first paragraph of this letter.
Polly writes: "I can understand a delay of one, maybe two days, but an entire week is far too long". This indicates that Polly is frustrated with the long period of time that the current network problems have lasted. A "complaint" is a negative comment or a reason for discontent.

In this dialogue, Bruno says "If it weren't for me, you'd be rotting away in some stinking swamp in the Amazon!" The phrasal verb "to rot away" means "to decay over time".

1 mind: This is the correct answer. The term "mind" in this context refers to someone's intellect or memory, or even the brain itself. In the dialogue, Donna asks Icarus to "focus on that feeling of strength and put it somewhere in (his) mind". She wants Icarus to try to remember this feeling of strength and store it somewhere in his head in order to feel it again. Note that the term "mind" is used in many idioms. Examples: To "change one's mind" means to change one's opinion, to "make up one's mind" means to come to a decision and to "bear something in mind" means to consider something when making a decision.
2 weak: This is the correct answer. The term "weak" is the antonym (opposite) of "strong", and refers to having little or no strength either physically or psychologically. A "weak" person is feeble or lacks strength or power. In the dialogue, Icarus tells Donna that sometimes he just feels "so weak." He is saying that he lacks strength to overcome the many obstacles he faces in life.
