1 earnings: This is a correct choice. "Earnings" in this case refers to money obtained by working. Tommy is trying to explain that the 50 dollars his mother found is money he has "earned" or been given for the task of painting Mr. Jones' house. In this dialogue, Ira mentions that Bruno predicted big "earnings" (profits or dividends for the shareholders in this context) for Delavigne in the second financial quarter.
2 dare: This is a correct choice. The verb "to dare" (used as an auxiliary in this sentence) means to have the necessary courage to do something. Another example: "How dare you insult me!" Here, Tommy's mother uses this verb to express her shock and anger that Tommy would lie to her. In this dialogue, Horatio criticizes Ira's tone when he says "how dare you speak to Bruno Delavigne like that." He is questioning Ira's decision to speak so forwardly to Bruno.
3 trust: This is a correct choice. The verb "to trust" means to have confidence in someone (or something). When Tommy's mother says, "Why should I trust you?", she is asking her son to give her a good reason to believe his explanation. In this conversation, Ira Canker wonders if he and the shareholders of Delavigne can trust or believe Bruno's promises after his prediction was erroneous.
4 mislead: This is a correct choice. The verb "to mislead" means to "misinform someone" (on purpose!). Here, "you'd better not be trying to mislead me" has a similar meaning with, "you'd better not be trying to lie or misinform me." In this dialogue, Bruno states that he never intentionally "misled" or misinformed the shareholders.
5 overreacting: This is a correct choice. The verb "to overreact" means to "react", or "respond", in an excessive or extreme manner. By telling his mother that she is "overreacting", Tommy is expressing his belief that his mother's accusations are excessive, or disproportionate, to the event. In this dialogue, Bruno tells Ira Canker that there is no need to "overreact". He is encouraging him to calm down and not get so excited.

"I would be very grateful if you could handle the interviews for me."
Replace the words written in bold with synonyms that best keep the meaning of the original sentence.
"I would be very if you could the interviews for me."
Replace the words written in bold with synonyms that best keep the meaning of the original sentence.
"I would be very if you could the interviews for me."
"I would be very grateful if you could handle the interviews for me."
Replace the words written in bold with synonyms that best keep the meaning of the original sentence.
"I would be very thankful 1 if you could take care of 2 the interviews for me."
Replace the words written in bold with synonyms that best keep the meaning of the original sentence.
"I would be very thankful 1 if you could take care of 2 the interviews for me."
1 thankful: GRATEFUL = THANKFUL = appreciative of a service rendered. "I would be GRATEFUL if..." is a common and polite way of asking someone to do something. Example: I would be GRATEFUL if you could move on to the next correction!
1 relieved: To RELIEVE is to remove pain or distress. Example: I was RELIEVED when the pregnancy test came back negative. Considering the urgency of situation, Luna will probably feel RELIEVED if Edward helps her. However, RELIEVED is not a synonym of GRATEFUL, therefore not the best choice here.
1 honored: To be GRATEFUL = to be appreciative of a service; to be HONORED = to be appreciative of a service that is HIGHLY valued or desirable. Example: We would be HONORED if the prime minister attended the dinner. Luna will not be HONORED if Edward conducts the interviews because she does not value his skills as an interviewer; Luna simply wants Edward to help her out in a difficult situation, for which she will be appreciative and thankful.
2 take care of: This is correct. In this context, HANDLE = TAKE CARE OF or "look after". If you TAKE CARE OF something, you take responsibility for it and make sure it is done. Example: I'll TAKE CARE OF responding to that customer complaint. Luna wants Edward to HANDLE or TAKE CARE OF the interviews, which means he will be responsible for interviewing the job candidates.
2 check up on: This is incorrect. To CHECK UP ON (something) means "to survey" or "to verify". Example: Can you CHECK UP ON my grandmother while I'm away in Russia? In the context of the email, to CHECK UP ON the interviews might mean occasionally verifying that the interviews were being conducted correctly; however, Luna wants Edward to play far more active role and actually conduct the interviews.
2 get rid of: This is incorrect. To GET RID OF means "to dispose of". Example: I'm having a garage sale to GET RID OF some unwanted Elkie Johns albums. In the context of the email, to GET RID OF the interviews would mean to cancel the interviews (though this would be a strange way to say it!). To GET RID OF is not a synonym of to HANDLE.
