Help to rewrite the following sentences by replacing the word first with another word, without changing the meaning of the sentence. Each option is used only once.

Is this your first visit to Timbuktu? ➝
Have you never visited Timbuktu before 1?

Jean found the first three months of living in San Francisco very difficult ➝
Jean found the initial 2 three months of living in San Francisco very difficult.

Dr Von Headcold wrote the first guide to treating anosmia ➝
Dr Von Headcold wrote the original 3 guide to treating anosmia.
1 before: If this is someone's first visit to a place, then they have never visited the place before (previously, in the past). Another example: "I've never eaten Japanese food before. This is my first time trying it".
1 original: "Original" is grammatically incorrect in this sentence. "Original" is an adjective, and we need to use an adverb here because we are describing a verb ("visited") and the way it is done. An example with "original": "William Hartnell was the original Doctor Who: he was the first person to play the character on TV".
1 initial: "Initial" is grammatically incorrect in this sentence. "Initial" is an adjective, and we need to use an adverb here because we are describing a verb ("visited") and the way it is done. An example with "initial": "My initial thoughts were completely wrong" (My first thoughts were wrong; I had other, more accurate thoughts later).
2 initial: Jean's "initial three months in San Francisco" are the first three months which he spent living there. The use of the word "initial" here implies both that these months came earliest in time, and also that his time in San Francisco improved later. Another example: "My first/initial attempt at performing magic ended in disaster, but two years later, I was a professional!".
2 original: If something is the "original", then it is the earliest version of something in existence. For example: "The original recording of this song didn't feature any drums at all". This meaning doesn't fit here, because Jean's time in San Francisco doesn't have different versions.
2 before: "Before" is an adverb, and cannot describe a noun like "months". We might say: "Jean found it hard in San Francisco: he had never lived abroad before" (before that time).
3 original: Dr von Headcold's guide was "the original guide": this means that it was the first guide of its kind, and was a definitive guide on the subject at the time. Another example: "We are following the original recipe for hummus today" (We are using the first, definitive recipe).
3 initial: Although "initial" is not grammatically wrong here, it is not the most natural choice. We would be more likely to say "an initial guide" (rather than "the"), because the word "initial" implies that later guides (or later versions) were better or more definitive. For example: "An initial version of the painting was abandoned by the artist; the version seen today was completed a year later".
3 before: "Before" is an adverb, and cannot describe a noun like "guide". We might say: "When Dr von Headcold wrote his guide to anosmia, nobody had ever published a full-length book on the subject before".
Esercizio 2
"Basically, the mayor wants to honor corporations",
Which of the following words shares a similar meaning with "basically" in this context?

"Basically, the mayor wants to honor corporations",
Which of the following words shares a similar meaning with "basically" in this context?
"Certainly" is not a synonym for "basically". "Certainly" means "surely" or "for sure".
"Fortunately" is not a synonym for "basically". "Fortunately" means "luckily", or "with a little chance".
"Originally" is not a synonym for "basically".
"Essentially" is a synonym for "basically" in this context. Bruno is explaining that the purpose for the Mayor's ceremony is "essentially" to 'honor local corporations.
Esercizio 3
In his message, Philip talks about Delavigne Corp's "flagship stand in Paris".

In this context, the term "flagship" shares a similar meaning with:

In his message, Philip talks about Delavigne Corp's "flagship stand in Paris".

In this context, the term "flagship" shares a similar meaning with:
The term "latest" means "most recent" and does not share a similar meaning with "flagship".
"Leading" is the best choice here. A "flagship (shop)" is one which is very successful or used as a positive example. This shares a similar meaning with "leading" in this context. We should note that a "flagship" can also be a boat: usually the main vessel in a fleet or navy. Example: "Shop Top is opening a new flagship store on Oxford Street".
The term "original" means "oldest" or "first", and does not share a similar meaning with "flagship".
The term "only" means "unique" and does not share a similar meaning with "flagship".
