Find one synonym for each of the following words.
All of the synonyms are used in Polly's email to the staff.

Example: expert = ? You should type the word "specialist" (from the sentence "After reviewing the issue with Bruno, we have decided to bring in a specialist.")

Mistreatment = [not done] abuse 1 (we've given you the first letter to help you)
Problem = issue 2
Finish = end 3
Under = beneath 4
1 abuse: "Abuse" is a synonym for "mistreatment" or "maltreatment". In the letter, Polly writes: "I'm not one to hedge the issue, so I will simply come out and say it: several of you have abused our copier and as a direct result of your ABUSE, brought it to an untimely end".
2 issue: An "issue" is a problem or concern. Polly writes: "I'm not one to hedge the ISSUE, so I will simply come out and say it: several of you have abused our copier and as a direct result of your abuse, brought it to an untimely end". "To hedge the issue" is an expression which means to avoid or evade a question or problem.
3 end: "End" is indeed a synonym for "finish". Polly writes: "several of you have abused our copier and as a direct result of your abuse, brought it to an untimely END".
4 beneath: "Beneath" means "under" or "underneath". Polly writes: "Several wads (=piles) of chewing gum wedged BENEATH the paper tray"
练习 2
Bruno proposes several possibilities to Kevin in response to his requests.
Which of the following is NOT one of Bruno's proposals?

Bruno proposes several possibilities to Kevin in response to his requests.
Which of the following is NOT one of Bruno's proposals?
Bruno suggests that they should "end this meeting now", which expresses that Bruno wants to conclude their meeting.
This is the only choice which is not true. Bruno has another appointment, and so he wants Kevin to leave his office as soon as possible. He never proposes continuing the meeting at a different time.
Bruno suggests to Kevin that they should "shake hands and end this meeting".
Bruno actually asks Kevin if he wants to talk about "lowering" his salary, which means to "decrease" or "reduce" Kevin's pay.
