Find the synonym from the choices given for the following words used in the text.

"...a single man...". Another word for "single" is unmarried 1

"...another claim Smithson makes...". Another word for "claim" is assertion 2

"...starts to pose serious threats...". Another word for "threat" is danger 3

"...rarely finds an outlet...". Another word for "outlet" is release 4
1 unmarried: This is the right choice. "Single" in this context means "unmarried". Example: "I'm 46 years old, I'm still single, and I'm very jealous of all my married friends".
1 famous: This is incorrect. A well-known person or a celebrity is "famous". They are very rarely single, even when they are very ugly!
1 engaged: This is incorrect. To be "engaged" means to be to soon be married, to be someone's fiancé or fiancée. You are not "single" if you are "engaged" (even if you are very drunk!)
2 assertion: This is correct. An "assertion" means the same thing as a "claim", or "a statement of something which you believe". Example: "Philip claims to have slept with over 600 women, but we don't believe him".
2 complaint: Incorrect. A complaint is what you make when you are unhappy about something, for example, the service provided by a company.
2 proof: This is not the right choice. "Proof" is evidence of something. A scientists need proof of a theory before they can show it to be correct. The verb is "to prove".
3 danger: This is correct. The terms "threat" and "danger" share a similar meaning, and are used to refer to a "menace" or "bad event in the future". To "pose a threat" is to "present a danger". Example: "Global warming poses a serious threat to the planet Earth".
3 illness: This is not the right answer. An "illness" is a "sickness" of the body or mind. It is not synonymous with "threat".
3 handicap: This is not the right answer. A "handicap" is a "disability" or an "inability to do something", which does not share a similar meaning with "threat".
4 release: This is correct. A "release" in this context means the same as an "outlet" - an "exit" or a "way of letting something out". Here's another example: "My paintings provide me with an outlet for my creativity, and prevent me from going insane".
4 home: This is the wrong answer. Home is where you live: it is your "house", "bungalow", "apartment", etc. This does not share a similar meaning with "outlet".
4 cure: This is not the right answer. A "cure" is something that makes an illness or disease better. It does not mean the same as "outlet".

Wow, what a crazy scene! What is happening here?

Select all the TRUE statements from the list below!
Wow, what a crazy scene! What is happening here?

Select all the TRUE statements from the list below!
This statement is true. Horatio informs Bruno that the woman in this scene (Lupita Santacruz) is his "wife"! A "wife" (plural "wives") is the woman within a married couple.
This statement is not true. There is no indication that Horatio and Bruno are on their way (or "en route") to the airport. In fact Bruno says that he wants to "reach" Horatio's village before nightfall.
This statement is not true. Bruno tells Horatio that he will find a car and enter the jungle with his dog, Stink. To be "alone" means to be by oneself, or without another person (or animal).
练习 3
Luna's title is "Ms": she wants to be addressed as "Ms Luna DeLune".

This tells us that Luna:
Luna's title is "Ms": she wants to be addressed as "Ms Luna DeLune".

This tells us that Luna:
This is incorrect. The title which tells us that a woman is definitely not married is "Miss". "Ms" does not convey any information about a woman's marital status.
This is incorrect. The title which tells us that a woman is definitely married is "Mrs". "Ms" does not convey any information about a woman's marital status.
This is incorrect. "Ms" does not convey any information about a woman's marital status. Divorced woman can refer to themselves as "Miss", "Mrs", or "Ms".
This is the correct choice here. The feminine title "Ms" is used by women who do not wish to tell people whether or not they are married, simply by their name! It's a fairly modern innovation, but a very useful one. Example: "Susan was sick of men hitting on her when she called herself Miss Bliss. Now, she calls herself 'Ms Bliss".
