Excerpt: It is my pleasure to remind you of our upcoming quarterly shareholders' meeting, which will take place on Friday January 11th.
...If you cannot attend, you will find a form attached which you may fill out and return if you wish to vote by proxy.
There may be more than one correct answer!
This is a true statement. Bruno begins his letter with the formula "It is my pleasure to remind you..." which is a variation of the standard formula for beginning a letter of invitation: "It is my pleasure to invite you..." In this case, however, it is implied that the people to whom the letter is addressed already know about this event. Bruno then says that all shareholders, or people who own stock in a company, are "invited to attend" this meeting.
This is a false statement. Bruno writes that "all shareholders, big and small" are invited to attend, or come to, the meeting. All shareholders, whether they own many shares or few, are invited to attend this meeting.
This is a false statement. In his "PS", Bruno writes that the Delavigne ballroom is "simply a large room", and that they "rarely if ever" dance in it. In other words, he is warning the guests that no, there will not be a ball! A "ball" is a formal dance in this context.
This is a true statement. Bruno writes that a form is attached to this letter. This form allows anyone who cannot come to the meeting to vote "by proxy". This means that a shareholder can sign a form that gives someone else (another shareholder) the right to vote for them if they are absent. This person is called "a proxy", and votes in accordance with the original shareholder's wishes.

True or false? The value of Delavigne stock has dropped considerably since the announcement of their new product line.
True or false? The value of Delavigne stock has dropped considerably since the announcement of their new product line.
This statement is not true.
This statement is false. The text states that "Delavigne shares have risen". In this context, "shares" and "stock" have a similar meaning; both refer to a fraction of a company's stocks or capital which can be divided either among employees or private citizens. In this context, the verb "to rise" describes the growth or increase in value of the stock ("to drop" means the opposite: to decrease or go down). The verb "to rise" is irregular: rise/rose/risen.
Esercizio 3
Match the headline with the correct article below. Only three of the headlines are used, and none is used more than once!
Last year was the worst on record for perfume giant Kalvin Krime. Sales figures dropped dramatically due to stiff competition from up-and-coming Delavigne Corp, which increased its market share by 15%. Despite this, CEO Kalvin Krime announced yesterday that "the worst is now over" and predicted an increase in profits next year.
The previously privately-owned DataSeed Systems has announced that the general public can finally own a piece of the successful company. The move is apparently aimed to raise capital for a much-needed IT revamp and also a pool table for the staff recreation room. Despite healthy profits, lots of employees had been leaving the company. A lack of leisure facilities has been suggested as being one of the main causes.
Once again it would seem that Delavigne's bank balance is smelling of roses. A very smug company spokesperson reported that revenues from world-wide perfume sales are up by 20% compared to this time last year. The company's CEO has attributed this success to a controversial advertising campaign in which customers are hypnotized into buying Delavigne products.

1 Optimistic forecast from CEO: "Optimistic forecast" is the best headline to begin this article. We read the Kalvin Krime, CEO of his company, is "optimistic" or "hopeful" about the future of his company. A "forecast" is a "prediction" of future events. This headline means that the senior manager of a company (Kalvin Krime in this case) had made hopeful or positive predictions.

1 shares: "Shares" is the right answer. People can buy "shares" in a company as an investment, in the hope that the value of these shares will increase. However, shares can also fall in value! Example: "Kalvin Krime's share price has dropped below $1 for the first time in history".
2 dividend: A "dividend" is a yearly sum of money given to shareholders, generally based on the company's financial success. The total sum of money given depends on the price per share and the number of shares held by the stock holder.
3 upturn: "Upturn" is the term we were looking for. An "upturn" is an increase, or an improvement, especially after a quiet or unsuccessful period of time. Example: "The economic upturn is largely thanks to three huge companies building factories in our country".
4 disposable income: This is the right answer. A person's "disposable income" is the money they can spend on luxuries and leisure activities, once they have paid for essentials such as bills, food, and rent. Example: "I have more disposable income now that I have a job than when I was a student". An "income" generally refers to money received by a person as a salary.
