Exercício 1
Philip says that Shmike 'made a healthy profit in the 90's'.
In this context, 'healthy' means:
In this context, 'healthy' means:
Philip says that Shmike 'made a healthy profit in the 90's'.
In this context, 'healthy' means:
In this context, 'healthy' means:
Profits cannot be described as 'nutritious', which refers to food which is good for the body. 'Nutritious' is similar in meaning to 'healthy', however it is not correct to use this term to describe profits or money. This term (nutritious) is never used in a financial context.
Philip is expressing that Shmike made large or considerable profits in the 90's, not that their profits were 'sane', which means 'mentally stable' in English. Profits aren't described as 'sane'.
The term 'paltry' actually expresses the opposite meaning of Philip's term 'healthy'. A 'paltry' sum of money is extremely small, or 'next to nothing'.
When Philip describes Shmike's profits as 'healthy', he is saying that they were 'considerable', 'sizeable', or 'strong'. In this context, 'healthy' doesn't express an idea related to 'health' or the human body. The term is being used idiomatically to indicate Shmike's large profits (the money they earned) in the 1990's.
Philip is not expressing that Shmike's profits were 'well-balanced' in the 90's, but rather that they were significant or sizeable. If something is 'well-balanced' it is evenly proportioned or regular.

1 proof of payment: A "receipt" is a piece of paper which documents a purchase. It usually includes details such as the amount, date, and place of purchase. Example: I asked for a receipt so that the company could reimburse me. A "receipt" is "proof of payment".
1 bill: A "bill" is a piece of paper which documents the cost of something. Example: The restaurant bill came to over 100 dollars. The "bill" is the request for payment, but not the proof of payment. Icarus didn't find a bill, but rather a receipt for a payment made by the company.
1 notice: A "notice" is generally a piece of paper that gives information. Example: There was a notice on my door that my electricity would be cut the following day. A notice is different than a receipt.
1 tracking number: A "tracking number" is an identification number that is attached to a shipment or package. This number is used to "follow" or "track" the package as it travels to its destination. A tracking number is different than a receipt.
2 a large: A "sizeable" amount of something is a "significant" or "large" amount of something. Example: There was a sizeable withdrawal from my checking account that I could not verify. Icarus is talking about a "large" equipment purchase which indicates a large quantity of equipment costing a significant amount of money.
2 an illegal: Something "illegal" is something that is forbidden by the government or against the law. Example: Selling drugs to school children is illegal. "Illegal" does not share a similar meaning with "sizeable".
2 a recent: A "recent" event is an event that happened a short time ago. Example: I recently bought the new novel about the young magician Barry Trotter. Something "recent" does not share a similar meaning with something "sizeable".
2 a mysterious: Something "mysterious" is difficult to explain. Example: Bruno received a mysterious the other day. "Mysterious" does not share a similar meaning with "sizeable".
