1 tough: In this context, to be "tough" is to be mentally or physically strong (often with the capability of being violent). Example: He plays a TOUGH guy in the new movie. In the song, Susie is asking men if they are strong (or masculine) enough to wear TigerLily, which is a perfume intended for women. Note, in a different context, "tough" can mean "difficult". Example: That was a TOUGH exam.
2 enough: "Enough" is a synonym of "sufficient", "as much as necessary" and "adequate". Example: He's good ENOUGH at football to play for the national team. In the song, Susie is asking men if they are sufficiently "tough" to wear a feminine fragrance. Note: as demonstrated in the song, "enough" rhymes with "tough" and "stuff"!
3 wear: To wear something is to have something on your body, usually as a piece of clothing, but it can also apply to perfumes and fragrances. Example: I only WEAR perfume on days that I don't shower.
4 stuff: The term "stuff" can be used to refer to a substance when you do not know the name, when the name is not important or when it is obvious what you are talking about. Example: I'm sorry, but I think there's some brown STUFF on your shoes. In the song, Susie describes TigerLily as "girly stuff" because it is obvious that she is talking about TigerLily. If something is "girly", it is associated with females.
5 Put: "To put something" on (a part of your body) means to wear or "place" something on (a part of your body). Example: My girlfriend sometimes PUTS a bag ON my head because I am very ugly. In the song, Susie tells men to put it (=TigerLily) on their skin.
6 skin: "Skin" is the layer of tissue that covers and protects the body. Example: Every night I use moisturizing cream to make my SKIN soft.
7 smell: If you smell of (cigarettes), your body gives off an odor of (cigarettes). Example: I know you've been drinking - you SMELL of whisky!
8 unbelievably: The term "unbelievably" means "incredibly", "impossibly", or "improbably"; it is informally used to emphasize how good (or bad) something is. Example: The food at the restaurant was UNBELIEVABLY good (=very good). In the song, Susie claims that TigerLily will make men smell unbelievably (or incredibly) powerful!
9 Powerful: To be "powerful" is to have great strength or force; "Powerful" people (like politicians) are able to control or influence people and events. In the song, Susie claims that TigerLily will make men smell powerful!

1 smell: This is correct. "To sniff (a flower)" is to smell a flower, more specifically it is breathe air in through your nose in a way that makes a sound. In this broadcast, Moira and Brent discuss a pig that sniffs "truffles", or finds them by smelling for them.
1 taste: This is incorrect. To "sniff" and to "taste" have different meanings. To "taste (a steak)" is to try it by ingesting or eating part of it.
1 touch: This is incorrect. To "sniff" and to "touch" have different meanings. To "touch (a button)" is to "feel" it, or to make contact with it, using your hand or another body part.
2 a look: This is the best choice. The verb "to peek" means to look, often briefly or for a short period of time. As a noun, a "peek" refers to a quick look or glance at something. When Moira says that Enriqué will give us "a peek" at the world of sports, she means that he will tell us briefly, or give us an update on the world of sports.
2 an opinion: This is incorrect. An "opinion" and a "peek" are unrelated. An "opinion" refers to a point of view or perspective. For example: Brent's views on illegal immigration are very extreme; he believes that all illegals should be deported to Canada.
2 the apex or climax: This is incorrect. Don't confuse "a peak", which can refer to the top or apex of something, with a "peek", which refers to a short look or glance.
3 review: This is the best choice here. To "recap" (or re-cap) means to "go over" or "review" something (a topic, a subject, etc.) "Recap" is an abbreviation of the verb "to recapitulate", but it is frequently used as an abbreviation. Moira wants to summarize or review the topic of discussion mentioned earlier in this broadcast.
3 highlight: This is incorrect. "To highlight (the important points)" is to draw attention or emphasize them. For example: "I'd like to highlight the fact that we lost a billion dollars last month".
3 resume: This is incorrect. To "resume (working after a break)" describes continuing or restarting an action after a pause or interruption. For example: "I resumed work after my pregnancy".
4 ridicule: "Ridicule" is the best choice here. To "mock" someone is to "ridicule" or "make fun of" them, often by imitating them. Example: "Everyone mocks Dorian because of his gigantic ears".
4 kick: To "kick" someone is to "hit" or "strike" them with the foot. This is unrelated in meaning to the term "to mock".
4 befriend: This is incorrect. To "befriend (an elephant)" is to "make friends" with them, to become close to them or get to know them. This is unrelated to the term "to mock".
5 consecutively: This is the best choice here. The expression "in a row" shares a similar meaning with "consecutively", or "successively" in this context. In this broadcast, Enriqué mentions that Paris St. Germain has lost several matches "in a row", or "consecutively". Another example: "I've answered the phone ten times in a row. It's your turn to pick up now".
5 in a short period: This is incorrect. The expression "in a row" doesn't mean in a short period, but rather "consecutively" or "successively".
5 against quality opponents: This is incorrect. The expression "in a row" doesn't refer to the quality or strength of an opponent, but rather describes a series of "consecutive" or "successive" events.
