Luna took a short trip on a ship 1 called the SS Saskatoon last week to watch the dolphins play in the Atlantic Ocean. Just after Luna reached the Gulf of Mexico, she realized she had forgotten her favorite poncho at the office. So she called Icarus and asked him to have it shipped 2 to her. Icarus called Luna from the post office and said "I'm shipping 3 your poncho right now, Luna. The cost of this shipment 4 is 74 dollars and 39 cents." Luna replied "Oh my goodness! shipping 5 charges are so expensive these days!" Then Icarus responded, "I think it's expensive because they need to find a helicopter pilot to deliver the poncho to the middle of the ocean."

1 ship: A "ship" is a type of boat. It is the only appropriate choice in this sentence.
2 shipped: "Shipped" is the best choice here. Luna wants Icarus "to ship" or send her poncho by post. This sentence is formed using "to have" + object (the poncho) + the past participle form of the verb (shipped), which means "to arrange for someone to ship (the poncho)". The verb "to ship" is often used in the passive voice.
3 shipping: "Shipping" is the best choice here. Icarus is performing an action in the current moment, and so we use the present progressive (or present continuous) tense to express this. The present progressive tense is formed by using the auxiliary "to be" followed by the "ING" form of the verb.
4 shipment: "Shipment" is the best choice here. Icarus is referring to the package or parcel he is sending to Luna (her poncho). Note: "shipping", the "ING" form of the verb "to ship", is acceptable here, although it is awkward.
5 shipping: "Shipping charges" describes the cost or price of delivering a letter or package.

Excerpt: The shipment... was being transported from the company's sales affiliate in Rio de Janeiro to a wholesaler in São Paulo...
...one 94 year old man broke his hip dancing the samba around the burning vehicle.

This answer is correct. A man was unfortunately injured after the accident. He wasn't involved in the accident itself. It seems as if he was trying to enjoy himself in fact. The article states he 'broke his hip dancing the samba around the burning vehicle'. We like people who can make the most out of a bad situation!
This is incorrect. A 'ship' is not a 'shipment'. A 'ship' is a large boat and a 'shipment' is a 'load' or a 'cargo'. It was a 'lorry' that crashed onto the beach, according to the article. Synonyms for 'lorry' include 'truck', 'wagon' or 'van', but not 'ship'!
This is a true statement. The article states that the perfume was 'being transported' from Rio de Janeiro to São Paulo when the accident happened. The term 'en route' is French, but we use it in English to mean 'coming' or 'on its way'. In fact, we've stolen quite a lot of words from the French!

This statement is false. Bob writes that that he spoke to a representative "last week", and that he expected a shipment within "48 hours", or two days.
This statement is true. Bob writes: "I was hoping you could help me track a shipment". To "track" a shipment, is to "find", "locate" or check the status of the shipment. This is the reason that Bob is chatting with the technical support person.
This is incorrect. There's no indication of this at all! Really!
This statement is true. Bob is unable, or "can't" provide any of the numbers that Stephen asks him for. These include his "case number", his "shipping retrieval number", "product specification number", etc.

4 track: "To track (an order)" is to follow or monitor the order. Example: I want to track the progress of a camera I bought on Hamazon last week. A "tracking number" is used to monitor the progress of deliveries.
