Esercizio 1
What is the meaning of the phrase, "The coffee and cookies will be available in my office from 2:15 until their supply is exhausted"?
What is the meaning of the phrase, "The coffee and cookies will be available in my office from 2:15 until their supply is exhausted"?
Since the cookies and coffee are already prepared, their supply is not dependent upon the endurance and stamina of the cook.
When the "supply" of something is "exhausted" it means that nothing remains. This is what Polly is expressing in her email.
It is a well known fact that cookies have neither vocal chords nor hands, usually necessary when begging or pleading. This choice is incorrect.
Since the subject of the sentence is the coffee and cookies, the hours of the office are not related to their being "exhausted".

This sentence uses the term "exhausted" correctly . The primary meaning of the adjective "exhausted" is to be extremely tired.
This sentence uses the term "exhausted" correctly. As a verb in the active voice, "to exhaust" can express the idea of "consuming" or "expending" (money, options, supplies, etc.).

This is correct. In the article we read that "Lee Wang... is determined to put Chinese-made luxury goods on the map, and understands the importance of brand recognition." To "put (a company) on the map" is to make a company well-known, or establish it. Lee Wang realizes that brand recognition (the consumer awareness of Chinese brands or marks) will help to increase the sales of his luxury products.
This is incorrect. We read in the article that "the idea that China can compete with the traditional European luxury giants in retail and distribution is no longer a hazy prospect." This indicates that Chinese companies have NOT been able to compete with European companies, but that this may be changing soon (with the rise of new Chinese businesses). A "hazy" prospect is distant, unlikely, vague or unrealistic.
This is incorrect. The article mentions that Mr. Wang "may not be done dealing", meaning that he may not be finished doing business. Later we read that Wang "with the resources at his disposal" may do some more shopping. This indicates that Wang still has enough money to buy more companies. To "exhaust" in this context means "to use up" or "to consume completely", and the verb "to deal" describes the act of doing business: buying, selling, negotiating, etc.
This is correct. The article mentions that "with the resources at his disposal, it wouldn't surprise anyone to see Wang come away with a new western subsidiary to play with." This means that Lee Wang has the resources (the money) and the inclination to buy a new company. The expression "to come away with (a new car)" indicates the "acquisition" or "obtaining" of a new car.
This is correct. The article states that "Wang has a vision, he wants to make downtown Shanghai the next 5th Avenue or the next Champs Elysees." This means that Wang wants to make Shanghai a place for high-end and luxury shopping like the Champs Elysees in Paris, and 5th Avenue in New York.

Rearrange the letters to find words used in the conversation! Use the hints to help you.
Example: thole --> hotel
I'm (I'm very tired)
a comfortable (a bed has one of these!)
I have a reservation "Smith" (I have made a reservation using the name "Smith")
Example: thole --> hotel
I'm (I'm very tired)
a comfortable (a bed has one of these!)
I have a reservation "Smith" (I have made a reservation using the name "Smith")
Rearrange the letters to find words used in the conversation! Use the hints to help you.
Example: thole --> hotel
I'm [not done] exhausted 1 (I'm very tired)
a comfortable [not done] mattress 2 (a bed has one of these!)
I have a reservation [not done] under the name 3 "Smith" (I have made a reservation using the name "Smith")
Example: thole --> hotel
I'm [not done] exhausted 1 (I'm very tired)
a comfortable [not done] mattress 2 (a bed has one of these!)
I have a reservation [not done] under the name 3 "Smith" (I have made a reservation using the name "Smith")
1 exhausted: "Exhausted" means to be very tired. "To exhaust" literally means "to use up" or "to consume completely". Example: We have EXHAUSTED our supply of oil. Therefore, if someone is exhausted, they have used up all their energy and are very tired - just like Philip in the conversation: "I'm exhausted and would really like to get some sleep"!
2 mattress: If something is "comfortable" it provides "comfort" and makes you feel at ease physically. Example: This chair is so COMFORTABLE that I often fall asleep in it. A "mattress" is a large pad that is placed on a bed to provide support when people are sleeping. The term "comfortable mattress" is therefore a common word combination. In the conversation, the receptionist tries to make a joke by saying "all our beds are very comfortable - some of them even have mattresses!"
3 under the name: To have a reservation "under the name" (of Mr X) means that you have booked a hotel room using the name (Mr X) . At the beginning of the conversation, Philip says, "Good evening, I booked a room for tonight under the name "Cheeter"". This is a nice way of introducing both your name and the fact that you have a hotel room reserved.
