Choose the TRUE statement(s) about the city of Seattle according to this broadcast.
Choose the TRUE statement(s) about the city of Seattle according to this broadcast.
This is true. Brent reports that Seattle is the "birthplace" of rock "n" roll legend Jimi Hendrix. The term "birthplace" refers to the location where someone or something was born. Did you know?: The left-handed Hendrix played a right-handed Fender Stratocaster guitar turned upside down and re-strung to suit him.
This is a true statement. Near the end of this broadcast, Candy reports that Seattle is the home of the Starbucks franchise. In this context, "a franchise" refers to "a business establishment" or chain of business either independently-owned or part of a parent corporation.
This is true. Brent reports that Seattle is "home of trillionaire" Bill Gates. Cities are often described as "home of" or "home to" (a famous person or invention) to indicate that a famous person, product or invention originated there. Did you know?: Seattle is the birthplace of the grunge movement which was started by seminal rock bands such as Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains.
This is not true. Candy reports that there are over 6,000 Starbucks locations (or shops) "worldwide". The adjective "worldwide" means "all over the planet".
In English, "franchise" does not refer to "honesty". The term is used as a noun to denote "a business establishment" or as a verb to indicate "the act of giving certain rights to a business". "A franchise" also refers to an independently-owned business (a restaurant for example) which uses the name of a parent company. For example, there are many McDonald's franchises all over the world which are privately owned but which pay the McDonald's company for the right to use their name, products and recipes.

1 2: This is a correct choice. Rupert says "this year there'll be two big (rugby) competitions." He goes on to explain that these tournaments are called the Six Nations and the World Cup respectively.
1 1: This is incorrect. Rupert specifies that there will be two major rugby tournaments this year.
1 6: This is an incorrect choice. Rupert describes two major rugby tournaments in this broadcast: the Six Nations and the World Cup of rugby. Although the Six Nations tournament involves teams from six different countries (England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, and Wales), they are competing in one single tournament.
1 12: This is incorrect. Rupert specifies that there will be two major rugby tournaments this year.
2 France: This is a correct choice. Rupert says "the main event comes to France, yes that's right, the World Cup of rugby". By "main event", Rupert is referring to a major or significant event, in this case the Rugby World Cup. This indicates that the World Cup takes place in France.

When Rupert mentions a home, he is not referring to a house but rather a city or town in this context. Rupert is actually reporting from a street in Twickenham.
