Esercizio 1
I am duly flattered by your proposal.
What does this mean?
What does this mean?
I am duly flattered by your proposal.
What does this mean?
What does this mean?
"I am duly flattered by your proposal" means "I am grateful for your request or invitation".
Do not confuse "due" with "duly".
This choice is simply wrong.
Do not confuse "duly" with "dull" which means "not sharp" or "uninteresting".
Esercizio 2
Time for a little dictation! Fill in the blanks below with terms used by the announcer:
"This is a security . Passengers are to keep their with them at all times. Any bag or other of will be and may be destroyed. Thank you."
"This is a security . Passengers are to keep their with them at all times. Any bag or other of will be and may be destroyed. Thank you."
Time for a little dictation! Fill in the blanks below with terms used by the announcer:
"This is a security announcement 1. Passengers are requested 2 to keep their possessions 3 with them at all times. Any unattended 4 bag or other item 5 of luggage 6 will be removed 7 and may be destroyed. Thank you."
"This is a security announcement 1. Passengers are requested 2 to keep their possessions 3 with them at all times. Any unattended 4 bag or other item 5 of luggage 6 will be removed 7 and may be destroyed. Thank you."
1 announcement: "Announcement" is the best choice here. An "announcement" is a short, informative message. A "security announcement" concerns the safety of the people at a certain place, such as an airport or concert hall. Example: "I have an announcement to make: I'm pregnant!"
2 requested: "Requested" is the correct answer. We say that someone is "requested to do something" as a polite way of asking or telling them to do this thing. In the announcement, "passengers are requested" to remain with their bags. Example: "Visitors are requested to remove their shoes before entering the temple".
3 possessions: "Possessions" is the best choice here. A person's "possessions" are the items they own, or the "property". In the announcement, the announcer asks people to keep their "possessions with them at all times". Example: "All his possessions were destroyed in the fire".
4 unattended: "Unattended" is the correct answer. An item is "unattended" when it is not being watched-over, or cared-for, or it has been "abandoned". In the announcement passengers are asked not to leave their items "unattended". Example: "Leaving an injury unattended for too long is likely to cause serious problems".
5 item: "Item" is the best choice here. An "item" is an "article" or a "piece". The announcer refers to "any other item of luggage", meaning any article such as a suitcase or bag. Example: "They sold many items of furniture, including chairs, tables, and wardrobes".
6 luggage: "Luggage" is the correct answer here. The term "luggage" refers to bags and suitcases used for travelling. The announcer tells passengers that any abandoned luggage will be taken away and possibly destroyed. Example: "Nobody offered to help me get all my luggage onto the train, and I lost my faith in humanity".
7 removed: "Removed" is the best choice here. To "remove" an item is to "take it away". We need the passive voice in this construction, because the announcer is telling us what will happen "to" any luggage which is left unattended. Example: "It's best to remove your clothes before going to bed".

Why is Steffi Fünffinger calling Philip Cheeter?

There may be more than one correct answer!
This statement is true. Steffi wants Philip to correct the "inaccurate" invoice that she was sent by the Delavigne Corporation. Specifically, she wants a new invoice to reflect the correct price per unit of Bruno's Brew: 31 dollars per unit (not $29).
This statement is true. Steffi has called Philip to let him know that there has been an error in the invoice that was sent to her. Specifically, Steffi informs Philip that the price on the invoice she was given is too low, and that the price was not the one agreed upon.
This statement is not true. Steffi wants to correct a billing error for a previous order. She does not want to negotiate a better price for an order, she only wants Philip to correct an inaccurate invoice.
This statement is false. Although Steffi does alert Philip to a pricing error on the invoice she was sent, she is not demanding or requesting payment. She actually was charged too little for the perfumes, and wants a corrected invoice to reflect the real price.

1 drive: "Drive" is the right answer here. To "drive" is to direct or control something, usually a vehicle (car, bus, lorry, etc.). Example: "You can't drive a car unless you have a licence".
2 left: "Left" is the term Eva uses here. Most people write with their "right" hand, but around 10% of people write with their LEFT hand. In the majority of countries, traffic drives on the right-hand side of the road, but in some countries, people drive on the left. Countries where people drive on the left include Britain, India, Australia, Japan, and South Africa.
3 mostly: "Mostly" is the correct answer. The term "mostly" means "generally", "mainly", or "the majority of (the time)". Eva is saying that the majority of British people travel by horse most often! You should note that this isn't entirely true. Here's another example of "mostly" in action: "I mostly listen to rock music, but sometimes I listen to jazz".
4 request: "Request" is the right term here. When we "make a request", we "ask for something" politely, or formally. To do something "at the Queen's request" is to do something "because the Queen has asked you to". Example: "At Bruno's request, all the staff came to the office on Sunday".
5 drink: "Drink" is the word which Eva sings here. To "drink" is to consume a liquid. In the context of Eva's song, "to drink" means specifically "to drink alcohol". Note that this verb is irregular: drink/drank/drunk. When someone drinks too much alcohol, they are described as "drunk".
6 awful: "Awful" is the correct word here. "Awful" means "horrible", "terrible", or "very bad". Eva is saying that the food eaten in Britain is disgusting! Another example: "Horatio is an awful singer: glasses smash when he sings!".
7 skies: The correct answer here is "skies". "Skies" is the plural of "sky", and both terms refer to the atmosphere above the earth, where we can see the sun and clouds. Eva sings that the skies above Britain are grey, meaning that it often rains in Britain.
8 grey: "Grey" is the term which Eva sings here. By saying that the skies in Britain are grey, she is saying that it is rarely sunny in Britain. Note that this word is written as either "grey" or "gray" in British English, but always "gray" in American English.
