1 best ever: This is correct. A "record" is the best result or the highest or lowest level that has ever been reached. It is often used to describe unsurpassed measurements in sports. Examples: I currently hold the world RECORD for running 100m OR Last August was the hottest month on RECORD. Therefore, a "record turnover" is the highest turnover ever recorded. The "turnover" is the total amount of goods or services sold by a company during a particular period of time.
1 controversial : This is incorrect. If something is "controversial", it causes disagreement and public debate. Example: The government has taken the CONTROVERSIAL decision to stop taxing English Teachers. The term "controversial" is not a synonym of "record".
1 unexpected: This is incorrect. If something is "unexpected", it is not expected - it is a surprise because you didn't think it would happen. Example: We received an UNEXPECTED visit from the Queen. The term "unexpected" is not a synonym of "record".
2 primarily: This is correct. If you "mainly" (eat fish and vegetables), then you (eat fish and vegetables) more than any other (food). The term "mainly" is a close synonym of "primarily" and "principally". If high retail sales are "mainly" due to discounts, it means that price reductions had the biggest influence on the amount of products sold.
2 possibly: This is incorrect. If something is "possibly" (true), it may be (true), but you are not certain. The term "possibly" is a synonym or "perhaps", it is not a synonym of "mainly".
2 completely: This is incorrect. If something is "completely" (true), it is "totally" or 100% (true). Example: My telephone is COMPLETELY broken - it doesn't work at all. The term "completely" is not a synonym of "mainly".
3 put into place: This is correct. "To implement" is "to put into place or effect" or "to carry out" or "to make happen". Example: The changes in the law will be IMPLEMENTED next year. In the article, Philip is said to have implemented the discount policy, which means that he made the discounts happen, or put the discounts into place.
3 conceived: This is incorrect. "To conceive" is "to create an idea" or "imagine something". Example: I CONCEIVED the idea of turning the bedroom into a study. As we heard in the previous audio, Philip did not "conceive" the idea of discounts - Hannah did. Philip simply put the discounts into effect. Remember: "conceive" = "create"; "implement" = "put into effect"!
3 inspired: This is incorrect. "To inspire" is to give somebody the idea or motivation to do something. Example: Many people were INSPIRED by The Velvet Underground and decided to start their own bands. The article is not saying that Philip Cheeter was the source of the "discount" idea, but that he put the discounts into effect. The term "inspired" is not a synonym of "implemented".
