1 down: The phrase 'from that tall tree' indicates that Horatio's monkey is in an elevated position. It makes sense for Horatio to tell him to come 'down', which indicates movement towards a lower position.
1 up: The phrase 'from that tall tree' indicates that the monkey is above Horatio, in an elevated position. It doesn't make sense for Horatio to tell the monkey to go higher.
2 up: The phrase 'from that tall tree' in the previous sentence indicates that the monkey is above Horatio. 'Up' is used here to indicate a place or position that is elevated.
2 down: Although grammatically correct, 'down' makes no sense in this construction. The phrase 'from that tall tree' indicates that the monkey is higher than Horatio. 'Down' is used to indicate a place or position which is low.
3 down: Here 'down' is used to complete the phrasal verb 'calm down'. Although 'down' doesn't literally indicate a low position in this expression, it does express the sense of collecting oneself from an excited or agitated state: a decrease in intensity. The expression 'calm down' is a request for someone to relax or stay cool.
3 up: There is no such expression in English.
4 up: The idiom 'time's up' (or 'time is up') expresses that the allotted or awarded time for something is over. Horatio has given his monkey three seconds to correct his bad behavior. After the three seconds have expired, he says 'time's up'. In this context, and in many others, 'up' is used to indicate a sense of completion or finality.
4 down: There is no such expression in English.

This is a true statement. When Donna reviews their last session, she mentions that Icarus once "wet (himself) in the school play at the age of 7." To "wet oneself" is a polite way of expressing that someone has urinated on themselves. One can also "wet the bed" which means to urinate while sleeping. The term "play" here refers to a theatrical performance.
This statement is false. Donna concludes the session by saying "I'm afraid our time is up." The phrase "our time is up" indicates that there is no remaining time left for an action or activity. Here, Donna is telling Icarus that their session is finished, and that they will have to continue this conversation next week. They are not stopping because Donna is satisfied with the results of the session, but rather due to lack of time.
This statement is false. According to Donna's notes, Icarus' mother didn't "let (him) play with other children." Moreover, Donna tells us that he was "lonely" as a child, indicating that he didn't have many friends.
This statement is false. At no point in the dialogue does Icarus talk about any past sexual experiences.

True or False? There is a time limit to Brent's quiz.
True or False? There is a time limit to Brent's quiz.
This statement is true. At the beginning of this broadcast, Brent informs us that he will "test (Jonas") knowledge of Scandinavia in 30 seconds or less'. At the end of the broadcast, Brent states that Jonas' "time is up", meaning that Jonas has "run out of time", or failed to answer all the questions in the allotted amount of time (30 seconds).
This statement is false.

Lawrence uses the idiom "(the) clock is ticking!"
From the list of idioms below, choose the best equivalent to the expression "the clock is ticking": Time is running out.
From the list of idioms below, choose the best equivalent to the expression "the clock is ticking": Time is running out.
Time is running out: This idiom expresses a similar meaning to Lawrence's idiom "the clock is ticking". Both idioms indicate that "time is limited". In this case Lawrence is encouraging Horatio to get started with his monologue, as he only has 30 seconds, and he is being timed.
Take your time: The idiom "take your time" expresses that someone should "go slowly", and take all the time they need to do something. It expresses an idea opposite to Lawrence's statement "clock is ticking", which is request to "hurry up".
Game over!: "Game over" expresses that an activity is finished, or that no more time remains. This is not what Lawrence is saying to Horatio, who has not yet started his monologue.
Time's up!: "Time's up" expresses that an activity is finished, or that no more time remains. This is not what Lawrence is saying to Horatio, who has not yet started his monologue.
