Esercizio 2
"I'm sorry to burst in on you like this"
Why is Polly apologizing?
Why is Polly apologizing?
"I'm sorry to burst in on you like this"
Why is Polly apologizing?
Why is Polly apologizing?
This is the best choice here. "To burst in (to a room)" means either to enter without warning or to charge into a room (loudly, or by using force). In this case, Polly is apologizing for entering Horatio's laboratory "without warning". She says this because Horatio was taking a shower when she knocked on the door.
It is true that Polly is delivering a message "at Bruno's request", however this is not the reason for which Polly apologizes, or excuses herself.
There is no indication that Polly is visiting Horatio at his home. Polly is surprised to find that Horatio is taking a shower, and tells him "that's really something you should be doing at home." This is a clear indication that Horatio is NOT in fact at his home. She is not apologizing for this reason.
There is no indication that Polly makes Horatio feel dirty. Horatio says that he feels dirty, and this is the reason that he justifies his shower during the middle of the workday. It is not the reason for which Polly is apologizing.

1 Tight: This is correct. In the context of clothing, garments are considered "loose" or "tight" depending on how much room there is for the body inside them. Example: "His shirt was so tight, you see the hairs on his chest."
1 Basic: This is incorrect. "Basic" means primary or simple, and isn't the opposite of "loose". The opposite of basic might be "complex", "advanced" or "sophisticated".
1 New: This is incorrect. "New" means recent "not existing previously", and isn't the opposite of "loose". The opposite of "new" is generally "old".
1 Formal: This is incorrect. "Formal" means "elegant", "sophisticated" or "fancy". Example: The wedding was very formal: only tuxedos and dinner dresses were worn.The opposite of "formal" is "informal" or "casual".
2 Borrow: This is correct. "To borrow" means to take or receive something with the promise and understanding that it will be returned. "Borrow" is the opposite of "to lend". Example: -Can I borrow your car this weekend? -Sorry, but I don't lend my car to chimpanzees, even if they are capable of human speech.
2 Give: This is incorrect. "To give" is to donate or award something; it isn't an antonym for "lend". A common antonym for "take" is "give".
2 Take: This is incorrect. "To take" isn't an antonym for "lend". A common antonym for "give" is "take".
3 Naked: This is correct. The adjective "clothed" describes someone or something that is "dressed" or "wearing clothes". Other antonyms for "clothed" include "nude", "undressed" and "unclothed".
3 Dressed: This is incorrect. "Dressed" and "clothed" are actually synonyms: words which express the same meaning.
3 Dirty: This is incorrect. "Dirty" means "unclean", "unhygienic" or "unwashed". It is not an antonym of "clothed".
