练习 1
Choose all the sentences from the list below which use the verb to file correctly.
Choose all the sentences from the list below which use the verb to file correctly.
This choice is incorrect. Be careful not to confuse the verb "to file" with "to feel", these are pronounced differently and have very different meanings.
This is a correct choice. To "file (a document)" means to class, arrange or organise it in a folder. Although this use of the verb is different than Warbuckle's use of the verb, it is one of the most common meanings of the verb "to file".
This is a correct choice. To "file for a divorce" is to make a legal demand to divorce one's husband or wife. This use of the verb "to file" is identical to Warbuckle's use of the verb ("to file for bankruptcy"). In both sentences, the verb "to file" expresses a formal or official demand for something.
This choice is incorrect. The verb "to file" cannot be used to refer to "queuing" or "standing in a line".

What is the meaning of the phrase, "One of my assistants came across your application"?
What is the meaning of the phrase, "One of my assistants came across your application"?
To "come across" does not mean to "file". Also, Delavigne submitted an application, and not an appeal.
To "come across" does not mean to "alter". Also, this assistant would probably be out of a job if they tried such a thing.
"To come across" means to "find by chance" or to "happen upon". One of Mayor Flimshaw's assistants found Delavigne's application by chance. This is the best choice here.
This is not what the mayor says. Flimshaw says only that one of his assistants "came across" Delavigne's application, but no one made a decision about it. Also, normally an assistant does not have the power to refuse an application.
