Back when I was in the jungles of Vietnam, I was shot in the arm by a Viet Cong sniper named Charlie. The bullet hit my arm, and caused a serious injury 1 (a wound, physical damage, trauma). I was in very bad condition 2 (a state of health), and so my fellow soldiers airlifted me back to our base in Hanoi in a green helicopter.

1 injury: Another word for "wound" is "injury". Both terms refer to damage to the body (physical and sometimes even mental). For example: I suffered an injury when the dentist drilled a hole in my cheek. In the text about Anosmia, we read that the condition can be caused by severe head "injuries".
2 condition: A "condition" is defined as a "state of health." The word "condition" has many different meanings, but in this context, a condition is a "health problem", "sickness" or even a disease (though these terms aren't totally synonymous). Example: She has a skin condition, and she gets big red buttons when she eats meat.

The author writes that the monkey is unharmed
This means that the monkey .
This means that the monkey .
The author writes that the monkey is unharmed
This means that the monkey has no injuries.
This means that the monkey has no injuries.
has no injuries: This is correct. If someone is "unharmed", they are "in good health" or "unhurt". The author of the note is reassuring Delavigne that the monkey is in good health (for now!). An "injury" is an accident that results in physical damage.
has no weapons: The term "unharmed" is close to the term "unarmed" is spelling and pronunciation. However, the two terms express very different ideas. "Unarmed" means possessing no "weapons" (like a gun or knife, for example).
has no arms on his body: The term "unharmed" is close to the term "unarmed" is spelling and pronunciation. However the two terms express very different ideas. The term does not refer to the "arms" on one's body. Note: The term "unarmed" generally refers to someone who has no "weapons" (guns, knives, swords etc), and not someone who is missing the arms on his body, who we would probably refer to as "armless".
is not happy: The term "unharmed" expresses a different meaning than "unhappy".

A "flesh-wound" is .
A "flesh-wound" is a minor injury.
a minor injury: A "flesh wound" describes an injury or wound which is not very serious, or which is "minor". Luna offers to take Trey to the hospital, however Trey refuses, insisting that his wound is not serious. "A flesh wound" is superficial injury, or one which is not very deep. "Flesh" refers to the muscle or fat of the human body, and a wound is an "injury".
a funny anecdote: A "funny anecdote" is a humorous or funny story. Trey is not saying that there is a funny story about his injury, but rather that his injury is not very serious.
an insignificant detail: Trey wants Luna to disregard his injury so that they can move on with the interview. However, a "flesh-wound" is a minor injury, and not "an insignificant detail".
a temporary headache: When Trey calls his injury a "flesh wound", he is referring to the type of injury he has sustained. He isn't saying that he has a "headache" (a pain his head).

This statement is true. Icarus describes a "mishap" in the toilets in which his neck tie got caught in the zipper of his pants. He was able to free himself with help from Kevin Connors, however we know that Icarus was in fact hurt because he refers both to his minor injuries as well as bloodstains on his trousers. The term "bathroom" is synonymous with "toilet" in US English.
This statement is true. Icarus specifies that he wants to meet Ruby at 7:45 pm sharp. When the term "sharp" is used to describe a specific time of day, it means "exactly" or precisely'.
This statement is true. Icarus begins his message by excusing himself for the delay in writing to Ruby. In the morning he was busy with "accounting obligations" and in the early afternoon he hurt himself while in the toilets.

In this report, Ray Upton describes an accident.
From the list below, select all the TRUE statements about the accident.
From the list below, select all the TRUE statements about the accident.
This is a true statement. Ray reports that on Highway One, there is "a multiple vehicle collision blocking traffic in both directions". A "collision" refers to the accident itself, and Ray's statement that traffic is "blocked" tells us that circulation on the freeway is being slowed or impeded. The term "traffic jam" describes this slow moving traffic.
This statement is false. Ray says that "several injuries have been reported along with at least one fatality, maybe more". Although he does not know the final figures, he knows that some people have been hurt and that there has been at least one death.
This statement is false. Ray Upton says that the traffic is blocked as "firefighters are trying desperately to reach the scene of the accident". The verb "to reach" describes the arrival at a spot or destination in this context. The firefighters have not yet arrived at the scene of the accident because of the cars blocking them. Firefighters, along with the police and paramedics are part of a group called "Emergency Services".
This statement is false. Ray Upton says that "at least one fatality" has been reported. A "fatality" is an injury resulting in death. "At least" one person was killed in this accident and maybe more. The term "fatality" is often used in the context of military conflicts, however we often hear the term on the news, nearly every night unfortunately.
