"Dare" can be used as an auxiliary verb to express "challenge" or "defiance" We can add negation to the term in order to express the idea of "not having the courage to do something". Note that several possibilities exist for adding negation to the term: We dare not, we daren't (old-fashioned), We don't dare. When Lawrence asks Icarus "How dare you question my authority?", he is expressing his surprise (and anger) that Icarus would challenge the truth of his words.
Although "to dare" does express the sense of "risk", the most appropriate term here would be "to bet", which means "to wager" or "to risk". The term "dare" cannot be used here.
"How dare you...?" is a common expression of surprise and anger in both British and American English. In this context, "to dare" is to "issue a challenge" or to "defy someone to do something" (usually something which is dangerous or requires a lot of courage). When Lawrence asks Icarus "How dare you question my authority?", he is expressing his surprise and anger that Icarus would challenge the truth of his words.
"Daring" shouldn't be confused with "dating". The two terms have nothing in common.

Look at the sentences below. Tick the boxes which use the term "dare" correctly.
This sentence uses the term "dare" correctly, as a verb. The verb "to dare" means "to challenge" or to "defy someone to do something" (usually something which is dangerous, or requires a lot of courage). In this sentence, Horatio is challenging Icarus to do something dangerous (jump off a bridge).
This sentence uses the term "dare" correctly, as an auxiliary. "She dare not interrupt Bruno" indicates that "she" wouldn't "interrupt Bruno" (because it wouldn't be appropriate for example). We can imagine that this person is afraid of disturbing Bruno while he is working. Note that when "dare" is used as an auxiliary, the term isn't conjugated as a regular verb: He DARE not speak and not He DARES not speak.
This sentence uses the term "dare" correctly, as a verb, in a similar way to Bruno's use of the term in this conversation. "Don't you dare (speak to me that way)!" is an exclamation which indicates anger or indignation on the part of the speaker. When Bruno shouts "How dare you (speak to me that way)", he is expressing his anger and great surprise at the way Horatio is speaking to him.
This is incorrect. Although "to dare" does express the sense of "risk", the most appropriate term here would be "to bet", which means "to wager" or "to risk". The term "dare" cannot be used here.

1 earnings: This is a correct choice. "Earnings" in this case refers to money obtained by working. Tommy is trying to explain that the 50 dollars his mother found is money he has "earned" or been given for the task of painting Mr. Jones' house. In this dialogue, Ira mentions that Bruno predicted big "earnings" (profits or dividends for the shareholders in this context) for Delavigne in the second financial quarter.
2 dare: This is a correct choice. The verb "to dare" (used as an auxiliary in this sentence) means to have the necessary courage to do something. Another example: "How dare you insult me!" Here, Tommy's mother uses this verb to express her shock and anger that Tommy would lie to her. In this dialogue, Horatio criticizes Ira's tone when he says "how dare you speak to Bruno Delavigne like that." He is questioning Ira's decision to speak so forwardly to Bruno.
3 trust: This is a correct choice. The verb "to trust" means to have confidence in someone (or something). When Tommy's mother says, "Why should I trust you?", she is asking her son to give her a good reason to believe his explanation. In this conversation, Ira Canker wonders if he and the shareholders of Delavigne can trust or believe Bruno's promises after his prediction was erroneous.
4 mislead: This is a correct choice. The verb "to mislead" means to "misinform someone" (on purpose!). Here, "you'd better not be trying to mislead me" has a similar meaning with, "you'd better not be trying to lie or misinform me." In this dialogue, Bruno states that he never intentionally "misled" or misinformed the shareholders.
5 overreacting: This is a correct choice. The verb "to overreact" means to "react", or "respond", in an excessive or extreme manner. By telling his mother that she is "overreacting", Tommy is expressing his belief that his mother's accusations are excessive, or disproportionate, to the event. In this dialogue, Bruno tells Ira Canker that there is no need to "overreact". He is encouraging him to calm down and not get so excited.
