Summarize this email by selecting the best answers according to the text.

Kevin writes that the surplus bottles of "Bordello Breeze" are ready to be distributed 1.
Kevin is worried 2 because not selling the surplus bottles will damage Delavigne's profit margins 3.
1 ready to be distributed: Kevin writes that the perfumes have been "distilled" and "bottled" and "are currently sitting in our warehouse south of Paris, until we take further action". A warehouse is a building used for storage. Kevin is saying that the bottles may be "distributed" or sold to retail stores at any moment.
1 in need of a quality check: Kevin does not indicate anywhere in his email that the bottles need to be checked or inspected for quality. In fact, they are "sitting in our warehouse" waiting to be sold, which suggest that the perfumes are ready to be distributed and sold.
1 in retail shops already: The bottles are "currently sitting in our warehouse south of Paris", and not yet in stores or shops. "Currently" means "at the present time".
1 missing: The factory has produced too many bottles, but there is no problem locating them. A "missing" bottle is absent or cannot be found.
2 worried: There are several indications that Kevin is worried (or concerned). In his first sentence he writes that he has "a bit of a problem", and from the situation he describes, we can assume that Kevin is "worried" or concerned.
2 confident: Given Kevin's difficult predicament, it would be inaccurate to describe Kevin as "confident".
2 optimistic: Given Kevin's difficult predicament, it would be inaccurate to describe Kevin as "optimistic". Kevin does not yet see any potential solution to this problem, so we cannot call him "optimistic".
2 furious: There is no indication in Kevin's email that he is angry or "furious".
3 not selling the surplus bottles will damage Delavigne's profit margins: Icarus informs Kevin that if the company is unable to sell the surplus bottles, it "could put a major dent in their profit margins". If a "major dent has been put into the company's profits", Delavigne's profits would be considerably affected or hurt. The expression "to put a major dent in our profit margins" means "to negatively affect profits".
3 this incident will lower Delavigne's stock prices : Kevin writes about Delavigne's "stock" and "overstock", but he is referring to the supply of perfumes which Delavigne must sell. Kevin is not referring to "stock" in the sense of "investments" or "public interest" in the company.
3 the cost of the surplus bottles will be deducted from Kevin's paycheck: Kevin writes that he is "directly responsible" for all of Delavigne's production, but there is no evidence that Kevin would be personally responsible for "absorbing the cost" of the surplus perfumes.
3 he himself caused this problem: Kevin writes that this problem was "beyond his control" which indicates that he himself did not directly cause this problem. However Kevin writes that he is responsible for taking care of it. Also, this is not a valid reason why Kevin is "worried".

A "warehouse" is a building for storing merchandise.
building for storing merchandise: A "warehouse" is a storage facility. Warehouses are used to store all kinds of things: merchandise, textiles, cars, drugs, guns just to name a few. The merchandise which Mick is concerned about is sent from Delavigne "warehouses" in Taiwan and China.
vehicle for transporting freight: A "warehouse" is not a type of vehicle, but a type of building or facility.
traditional Asian home made of bamboo: A "warehouse" is not actually a type of home.
manufacturing plant or facility: A "warehouse" is not a manufacturing plant, there is no fabrication or manufacturing done in a warehouse, it is just a storage space.
secret location: Do not confuse "ware" with the interrogative term "where?". A warehouse is not a secret location. But just in case, shhh! Don't tell anyone where the warehouse is!

1 warehouse: "Warehouse" is the right answer. A "warehouse" is a storage facility, usually in the form of a large hangar. Warehouses are used to store all kinds of things: merchandise, textiles, cars, drugs, guns just to name a few. In the dialogue, we are told that Horatio's supplies are in a warehouse. Example: "I like to keep the warehouse clean and tidy".
2 overseas: "Overseas" is the best choice here. If something happens "overseas", it happens in a "foreign country" or "abroad". In the dialogue, Horatio has ordered lots of products from "overseas". Example: "Lucy spent eight years living overseas and now she has a strange accent".
3 supplies: "Supplies" is the right answer here. "Supplies" are the "items", "articles", or "products" needed to perform a certain action. The dialogue discusses Horatio's supplies; the ingredients he needs to make his beautiful perfumes. Example: "I love stealing office supplies from work: paperclips are my favourite". Note that there is a related verb: "to supply (somebody with a product)".

1 goods: This is the right answer. In this context, "goods" shares a similar meaning with "items", "products", or "objects to be sold". Here's another example: "We store our unsold goods in my father's garage".
1 warehouse: This is incorrect. Articles of trade may be referred to as "wares", but the warehouse is the place where you keep such items.
1 inventory: This is incorrect. The term "inventory" refers to the collective list of your entire stock, rather than to each individual article.
2 inventory: This is correct. Your inventory is the collective term for the merchandise you have. Example: "We need to check the inventory: I think one of our employees has been stealing sweets from the store room".
2 warehouse: This isn't the best choice. The "warehouse" is not the merchandise, but rather the place to keep merchandise.
2 goods: This isn't the best choice. "Goods" are the units of stock, items, or products which make up your inventory.
3 warehouse: This is the best choice here. The warehouse is a building or structure designed to hold your products until they are bought or shipped! Example: "Charles works in a warehouse. He loves taking care of cardboard boxes".
3 inventory: This is not correct. The inventory is the collective term for the merchandise you have.
3 goods: This is not correct. Your goods might be kept in such a storage room, but the word "goods" does not refer to the place itself.

Archibald tells Polly that the server is repaired, but still in the warehouse ready to be shipped.
is repaired, but still in the warehouse ready to be shipped: This is the best choice here. Archibald says: "the server's been repaired. It's only waiting in the queue at this point". If the server is "waiting in queue" this probably means that it is waiting to be shipped out.

is repaired, but still in Indonesia waiting to be shipped: The server was never in Indonesia. The "missing RAM chip" was ordered from Indonesia, which means that it was shipped back to the Data Center.
is not repaired, and still in Indonesia waiting for a chip: Archibald says that the server has been repaired, so this statement cannot be true.
