Fill in the blanks with the terms used by Luna in her email.

This term shares a similar meaning with "error". "Cutting down the tree was a terrible mistake 1."

This term refers to something "icy" or "very cold", or stored at a very low temperature, in order to preserve it. "The British eat too many frozen 2 meals and not enough fresh vegetables."

1 mistake: "Mistake" is the correct answer. A "mistake" is an "error", or something which you did and now regret. Example: "I only made two mistakes in my English lesson this morning. I'm so happy!".
2 frozen: "Frozen" is the right answer here. A "frozen" omelette is one which has been stored at a very cold temperature (in a "freezer") in order to preserve it for longer. That sounds disgusting doesn't it?! Some frozen products, like peas and soya ice cream are nice! "Frozen" comes from the irregular verb "to freeze": freeze/froze/frozen.
3 catering: "Catering" is the right answer here. The "catering industry" is the sector which prepares, delivers, and/or serves food to customers, usually on a large scale. People who work in this area are called "caterers". Example: "Our current catering company is awful: we really need new caterers".
4 hungry: "Hungry" is the correct answer here. Someone is "hungry" when they suffer from "hunger": a lack of food. Example: "Since I fell pregnant, I've been hungry all the time".

Let's talk about Mr Stevens' job!

From the list below, select the description which would be part of a head of catering's job!

Let's talk about Mr Stevens' job!

From the list below, select the description which would be part of a head of catering's job!
This description would be more appropriate for the "head of marketing".
This description would be more appropriate for the "human resources director".
This is the right answer here. Mr Stevens is "head of catering", which means he is responsible for overseeing the eating arrangements at Delavigne. He is the "boss of the canteen". Another example: "The head of sales supervises all the selling of Delavigne's products".
This description would be more appropriate for a low-grade kitchen worker. As "head" of catering, Mr Stevens is unlikely to get his hands dirty!
