Exercice 2
"The first thing I'd like you to do is clear off your desk".

Bob wants Horatio to:
"The first thing I'd like you to do is clear off your desk".

Bob wants Horatio to:
This is not the best choice here. "To clear off (a surface)" does not actually express that a surface will be "swept", but rather that it will be "cleaned", "tidied", or "arranged". "To sweep (the floor)" is to use a broom or a brush to clean the floor of dirt and dust.
"To clear off (a surface)" does not actually express that a surface will be "washed", but rather that it will be "cleaned", "tidied", or "arranged". "Washing" always involves water, unless it is "brainwashing", which involves manipulation and advertising executives, usually.
This is the best choice here. "To clear off" (a surface) means to arrange, clean or put it in order. In this case, Bob wants Horatio to "clean up" or "tidy", probably by removing the objects on the desk, before beginning the lessons.
The phrasal verb "to clear off" does not mean "to sit down". The two verbs are totally unrelated.
This is not the best choice here. "To clear off (a surface)" does not actually express that a surface will be "mopped", but rather that it will be "cleaned", "tidied", or "arranged". "To mop (the floor)" is to use water, detergent and a mop (an implement with absorbent material) in order to clean the floor.
