Mrs. Lee writes, "Everything seems to be in order".

What does she mean?
"Everything seems to be in order" is an idiom which means something (or everything) is in an appropriate state'. Mrs. Lee is referring to the documents which Kevin Connors faxed to her, which are acceptable and make sense to her.
This is true, but it has absolutely no relation to the sentence in question.
Although the verb "to order" can mean "to command" or "to give instructions", in this case "in order" refers to the organization of the documents Kevin sent to Mrs. Lee.
"In order" can mean "lined up" or arranged in a sequence, but it is not the meaning in this case. For example, one could say that the list of student names is "in alphabetical order".

When the bus driver tells Jean that "everything seems to be in order," what does he mean by this?
When the bus driver tells Jean that "everything seems to be in order," what does he mean by this?
Sometimes the phrase "in order" is used to mean that something is well-prepared or nice looking. But the bus driver is not using this phrase to describe Jean's luggage.
This is not the meaning of this sentence.
This is indeed what the bus driver is saying. It is always good news when someone tells you your travel documents are "in order", that means you can take your trip! Here's another example: "The immigration police arrested me because my visa papers were not in order".
This is not the meaning of this sentence.

From the list below, select the sentence(s) which use in order correctly. There may be more than one correct answer!
This is incorrect. To "order in" food is to request it from a restaurant which delivers food to your home or office. However, the word order is very important! We need to say "Shall we order in a pizza tonight?".
This sentence uses "in order" correctly. To put several objects "in order" is to "classify" or "organise" them according to specific criteria. Another example: "The children lined up in height order for their school photograph".
"In order" is used correctly here, and in the same way as in the voicemail message. If something is "in order", then it is "as it should be", "correct", or "appropriate". We often use "in order" in an official context. Example: "Everything seems to be in order, sir. You may purchase this vehicle".
This is incorrect. We need the expression "to call a meeting TO order" here. Such a little word, such a big difference. To "call a meeting to order" is to make everyone be quiet and listen to the proceedings.

"Ranging from (A to Z)" is an expression which describes a variety or spectrum of items, ideas or subjects. Polly is explaining that Kevin buys all kinds of materials including glass bottles, seaweed, and many others.
Kevin "purchases", or buys, sea-weed, glass bottles and more. He does not put them "in order", or "arrange them".
Kevin "purchases", or buys, sea-weed, glass bottles and more, he does not sell them.
Kevin "purchases", or buys, sea-weed, glass bottles and more. It would not be correct to say that he buys only two types of materials.
Esercizio 5
"Kevin Connors purchases materials ranging from glass bottles to seaweed."
This means that Kevin glass bottles and seaweed.
This means that Kevin glass bottles and seaweed.
"Kevin Connors purchases materials ranging from glass bottles to seaweed."
This means that Kevin buys 1 materials including 2 glass bottles and seaweed.
This means that Kevin buys 1 materials including 2 glass bottles and seaweed.
1 buys: Kevin "purchases", or "buys" seaweed, glass bottles and more. "To purchase (an item)" is to buy it!
1 sells: "To sell" is an antonym of "to purchase", the terms have opposite meanings. "To sell (an item)" is to exchange it for money.
1 puts in order: Don't confuse the term "ranging (from)" with the verb "to arrange", which can mean to put something in order!
2 materials including: "Ranging from (A to Z)" is an expression which describes a variety or spectrum of items, ideas or subjects. This sentence expresses that Kevin buys (or purchases) all kinds of materials including glass bottles, seaweed, and more.
2 mostly: The term "ranging" doesn't express the idea of usually or "mostly" buying an item, but rather it describes many items from a group or series.
2 only: The term "ranging" doesn't express the idea of exclusion or uniqueness, but rather it describes many items from a group or series.
