1 alarm: This is the right answer. This is a loud sound that is usually triggered in the event of an emergency to warn people. They are not only used in urgent situations. Most people need an "alarm clock" to wake up in the morning.
2 break in: This is the right answer. We usually use the term to "break in" with property. For example, to break in to a house, a car, a shop.
3 stranger: This is the correct answer. Be careful not to confuse the term "stranger" with the term "foreigner" which is someone from another country. Here's another example: "Children should never talk to strangers, especially if they have sweeties".
4 trick: This is the right answer! To "trick" someone means to falsely lead someone into thinking something is true. Synonyms include to "fool", to "deceive", to "mislead" or to "con".

1 overseas: The term "overseas" refers to land or countries far from your native country. The term specifically refers to countries "across a sea or ocean", however the term can be used to describe a country "abroad". In this report, Bjorn mentions that frequent "overseas" travel has helped Swedish people learn English.
2 outstanding: The word "outstanding" means excellent or prominent. In the report, Brent says that Sweden is famous for "its outstanding ice-hockey players". He means that Sweden is well known for having very good ice-hockey players. Note that "outstanding" has other meanings in different contexts.
3 foreign: The term "foreign" refers to anyone or anything coming from another country. In this report, Bjorn talks about Sweden's "strong foreign trade policy". Other examples: America's foreign trade policy is an open system where there are few restrictions on trade with other countries.
4 compulsory: The word "compulsory" refers to something "required" or "obligatory". Bjorn reports that in Sweden, "English has actually been a compulsory subject in schools for 60 years". He means that students in Sweden are required to learn English at school. Example: It is compulsory to wear white tennis shoes when walking on the tennis courts.

What does she mean by this?

Sigourney says that her guest is "no stranger to controversy".
What does she mean by this?
What does she mean by this?
This is not correct. There is no suggestion that Susan Bliss likes controversy: we are simply told that she has been associated with it in the past.
This is incorrect, and quite the opposite of saying that someone is "no stranger to controversy".
This is correct. The expression "(President Butch is) no stranger to controversy" indicates that he is frequently associated with controversial issues. Another example would be: "During his period as Interior Minister, Nicolas Smarkozy was no stranger to controversy."
This is not correct. A person we know well is certainly not a stranger, but the expression "no stranger to controversy" indicates that the person referred to is frequently associated with controversial issues.
