This is correct. Bruno says "everyone, meet out new coach Horatio Oléré", this means that Horatio has been asked to train the Delavigne staff at the game of dodgeball. A "coach" is a trainer or advisor, often someone who manages a sports team.
This is an incorrect statement. Bruno says "what a great turnout we have here", which means he is happy that a lot of staff have attended the training session. The "turnout" for an event is the number of people who attend or come to the event. "A good (or great) turnout" is an expression used to indicate that many people have come or "showed up" to an event.
This is a correct statement. Bruno addresses the Delavigne staff by saying "You're all on time!" which indicates that nobody on the staff has arrived late, or that they were all punctual. Bruno goes on to say "That's unheard of!" which suggests that he is surprised that everybody has arrived at the time he asked.

1 guests: "Guests" is the best answer here. A "guest" is someone who has been invited somewhere, or receives someone else's hospitality. In the dialogue, Icarus is Philip's "guest" at the speed dating event. Another example: "I've invited some guests to my house for dinner".
2 coach: "Coach" is the correct answer. A "coach" trains, helps, or teaches other people, especially in sport. In the dialogue, Becky introduces herself as a "date coach", meaning that she will guide people through the speed dating evening. Note that there is a related verb "to coach (someone in maths)".
Esercizio 3
In the UK, a bus which travels over a long distance is commonly called:
In the UK, a bus which travels over a long distance is commonly called:
"Truck" is not the best choice. A "truck" is a large motor vehicle used for transporting big quantities of goods from one place to another. This term is more common in American English than British English.
"Coach" is the right answer. In British English, "buses" transport passengers within a city, whereas "coaches" travel between cities, and you often have to buy your ticket in advance. In the UK, Greendog Buses would be referred to as "coaches"!
This is not the best choice. A "car" is a small, private vehicle or taxi. Most "cars" only have room for four people. This term is used in both the UK and US, and is not the British equivalent of "long-distance bus".
"Lorry" is not the best choice. A "lorry" is a large motor vehicle used for transporting big quantities of goods from one place to another. This term is more common in British English than American English, but does not share the same meaning as "bus".

1 couch: A "couch" is a sofa, a piece of furniture typically used for sitting. They are often found in living rooms and in the office of a psychologist.
2 mind: The term "mind" literally refers to the brain or head of a person. Donna uses the term idiomatically both in this exercise as well as in her dialogue with Philip. Here she asks him "What's on your mind?" which is a question equivalent to "what are you thinking?", "What's wrong". We often ask this question after someone has requested to speak with you. Example: -I need to speak to you Bruno. -Sure Luna, what's on your mind?
3 pattern: A "pattern" is a recurring trend, theme or motif. It could be a color or shape pattern on a piece of clothing or a trend in the weather, or a behavior pattern. In the dialogue between Philip and Donna, Donna tells Philip that she recognizes a "pattern" in Philip's perception of the inkblot tests: he sees women in each one.

1 couch: This is the correct answer. Donna tells Icarus to "go and pop (himself) on the couch." A "couch" is a soft seat for more than one person. Couches are often found in psychologists' offices for their patients and clients.
2 chat: This is the correct answer. A "chat" is an informal conversation usually between people that know each other well. It can either be for a particular purpose or about nothing at all. Example: I am going to have a chat with my boyfriend about his drinking habit. "Chatting" is also the name given to real-time written conversations over the internet.
3 sharpen: This is the correct answer. The verb "to sharpen" means to cut away at something until it ends in a sharp point or has a very fine edge. Pencils are "sharpened" when they become dull in order to write more clearly and knives are "sharpened" to make them cut better.
