According to his statement, Harold Warbuckle's real weakness is hunting 2.
In this context a weakness refers to a vice 1.
According to his statement, Harold Warbuckle's real weakness is hunting 2.
1 vice: A "weakness" shares a similar meaning with a "flaw", which is a "vice", "problem" or "a fault". They are all terms which describe character defaults or bad habits (such as smoking, drinking or killing animals) which occur regularly.
1 dark side: A "dark side" does not share a similar meaning with a "weakness". But seriously Luke, come to the dark side. It's really quite pleasant over here.
1 desire: A "desire" does not share a similar meaning with a "weakness".
1 secret: A "secret" does not share a similar meaning with a "weakness".
2 hunting: Harold lists several "weaknesses" (vices or character defaults), however, in the middle of his statement, he says that his real weakness is "hunting"."Hunting" generally refers to chasing (and killing) animals for sport or food.
2 cold beer: Although Harold does mention his own weakness for "cold beer", this is not his real weakness.
2 Cuban cigars: Although Harold does mention his own weakness for "Cuban cigars", this is not his real weakness.
2 Susan Bliss: Harold never mentions any "weakness" for Susan Bliss, although in my opinion, there might be romance in the air.
Esercizio 2
Bruno wants Horatio to Giuseppe.
Bruno wants Horatio to track Giuseppe.
track: This is the correct choice. To "track (an animal or a person)" means to follow them, usually using clues (smell, footprints etc.) For example: the sheriff tracked the outlaws all the way to the Mexican border. To "track" shares a similar meaning with "hunt" as it is used in this dialogue. Bruno wants Horatio to "track" Giuseppe when he says, "Go now Horatio. Find Giuseppe, and hunt well, my friend".
kill: Bruno does not want Horatio to "kill" Giuseppe. The term "to hunt" means to follow for the purpose of killing or capturing an animal. The term can be used for "tracking" or "chasing" animals, but it does not necessarily mean that they will be "killed".
research: This is not the best choice. Bruno does not want Horatio to "research" Giuseppe. The term "research" means to collect information about a person or subject. For example: I went to the library to do some research on Napoleon. This term does not express the same meaning as "hunt" or "track".
adopt: This is not the best choice. Bruno never suggests that Horatio "adopt" Giuseppe. Horatio does say, "I know this monkey like he is my son" but this does not indicate that Bruno wants Horatio to legally make Giuseppe his son.

1 fox: "Fox" is the right answer here. "Foxes" (note the irregular plural) are wild animals which look like orange dogs with big tails. Historically, they only lived in the countryside, but nowadays they sometimes come into towns. In the radio broadcast, we learnt about "fox hunting", which is the pursuit of foxes in the country.
2 horse: "Horse" is the animal which was described here. "Horses" are beautiful four-legged animals with long tails and manes. People ride and race them for fun, and in the past they were an important means of transport. Example: "Marjorie wants to be a famous jockey and race horses at Ascot".
3 nose: "Nose" is the term we were looking for here. Most people and mammals have one "nose" in the middle of their face. We use our ears to hear, our eyes to see, and our noses to smell! Horatio Oléré has the most powerful nose in the history of the universe.
4 horns: "Horns" is the right answer here. "Horns" are hard, bone-like growths on the head of some animals. Animals use them to defend themselves against predators, and sometimes fight each other. Humans have used horns for many centuries. In the context of the radio program, the "horn" is a musical instrument used to call to others. "Horns" are used in hunting, in the army, etc.
5 hunt: "Hunt" is the correct term. To "hunt (a bear)" is to find, follow, catch, and kill it. People hunt animals because they want to eat them, take their fur, take their horns, etc.

A synonym for "to attend" is to participate in 2.
1 to collect: This is the right choice. To gather means to collect or to assemble. For example, "I've collected all the figures and entered them into the database". We also "gather flowers, mushrooms, etc.".
1 to read: This is incorrect. An example of the use of to "read" is "I read all of Shakespeare's plays in two days." It does not mean the same as to "gather". The verb "to read" is irregular: read/read/read.
1 to hunt: This is not the correct choice. To "hunt" means to "seek" or to "search for". It is usually used in the context of killing animals for sport or food. Example: "It's forbidden to hunt foxes and other wild animals on both public and private land in Britain, but some idiots still do it".
1 to hear: This is not correct. "Hearing" and "gathering" are different actions: one refers to the collection of something, while the other refers to the (audible) perception of it.
2 to participate in: This is the correct response. To "attend" is synonymous with to "participate in", to "take part in", to "be present at" or to "go to". (Don't forget the all important prepositions with these terms!) Example: "I won't be attending the staff barbecue. I've decided to become a vegetarian."
2 to wait for: This is not the right answer. To "wait" is not a synonym of to "attend". To "wait" for someone (or something) means to expect it at a certain place and time and to stay there until it, he, or she arrives. For example: "I've been waiting for you for over half an hour. Where have you been? I thought you were dead!"
2 to meet at: This is incorrect. To "meet at" does not mean the same as to "attend". Let's look at an example of a sentence with to meet at: "I'm going on a blind date tonight. We're meeting at a restaurant. He said he will be holding a pink rose so I'll recognize him!"
2 to launch: This is not the right choice. To launch is not synonymous with to attend. To launch means to establish, to release or to set up. For example: We're going to launch the new website tomorrow'.
