Polly writes that she knows "how you guys get when the alcohol starts flowing". Judging by the context of the phrase, this means that Polly knows how Horatio, Bruno and Bob: act when there is alcohol present.
act when there is alcohol present.: Polly is stating that she is familiar with the way that Horatio, Bruno and Bob "act" when alcohol is present. In this phrase, the verb "to get" is synonymous with "to become". This use of the verb "to get" is one of several; it is a very versatile term in English.
drink their alcohol.: This is incorrect. Polly is familiar with "how" the men act when drinking, not literally "how they drink".
obtain their alcohol.: This is incorrect. In this context, the verb "to get" is not being used in the sense of "to obtain". In a different context however, "to get" can mean "to obtain" as in the sentence "Where did you get that piece of cake?"
feel about being sick during parties.: This is incorrect. Polly is explaining her familiarity with the men's actions when they drink, not their feelings on her own poor health.

Which of the following statements is TRUE?
Which of the following statements is TRUE?
This statement is false. Bob tells Polly that her email is "pretty bizarre", and that she "usually writes in a different style".
This is the only true statement here. In her email to Bob, Polly never used the letter "e". In this dialogue, Polly asks Bob "if he thought her email was strange" because she did not use the letter "e".
This statement is false. Bob says to Polly "I got your message". In this context, "to get" is synonymous with "to receive" or "obtain".
This statement is false. There are two indications that Bob is calling Polly: Polly begins the conversation by saying "Polly Watson speaking" which is a formula used primarily by someone answering the phone in a professional environment. The second indication that Bob is calling Polly is the line "I'm calling you on your 'talk-box", which clearly indicates that Bob is calling Polly.

1 disturb: "To bother" is a verb close to "disturb", and the two terms are interchangeable in this expression. "Don't let me bother you" is an invitation to act normally, or continue to do something as if no one else was present.
1 frustrate: To "frustrate" means to irritate or cause annoyance or irritation. Although "bothering" someone can sometimes include frustration or irritation, in this context, "bother" is closer in meaning to "disturb".
1 bore: "To bore (someone)" is to say or do something which does not interest ot excite another person. Example: This movie is boring me. Isn't there anything else we can watch? "Bore" and "bother" do not share a close meaning.
2 continue: "To carry on (swimming)" is to "continue" swimming, or to "keep" swimming, generally while another activity or incident may interrupt the action. For example: We carried on with the play even after the main actor quit. "Carry on", the instruction that Bruno gives Edward and Brian, is commonly given when you wish someone to continue an action, despite your presence.
2 interrupt: "To carry on (doing something)" and "to interrupt (an action)" express nearly opposite meanings. To "interrupt (a discussion)" is to "cut" or break into it. For example: Bob interrupted our meeting several times in order to sing "Happy Birthday" to his dog.
2 begin: "To begin (eating dinner)" is to commence or start eating it. This verb has a different meaning than to "carry on", which describes a continuation of an action, and not the start of one.
3 answer: This is the best answer. "Get the phone" is an instruction to "answer" or "pick up" the telephone. Example: Can you get the phone? I'm busy right now. Note that in another context, "get the phone" could refer to buying, obtaining or transporting a phone. Ex: I'm going to the store to get a phone. Do you need anything?
3 obtain: In this context, "obtaining" or "procuring" a phone isn't the best answer here. "Get the phone" is an order to pick up or answer the phone. Note that in another context, "get" can express "obtaining" or "procuring" an item. Example: Please go to the store and get me some orange juice and eggs.
3 ignore: "Ignore" and "get" don't share a similar meaning in this context or any other.
3 hang up: "To hang up (a telephone, on someone)" is to end a telephone call, generally by placing the receiver of the telephone on the "cradle" or "base" of the phone. The term doesn't share a similar meaning with "to get the phone".
