At breakfast, Philip was reading The Modern Perfumer, as it is his duty 1 to keep up to date on the latest industry news. nonetheless 2, he does find this task rather boring. In fact, he hardly 3 reads the articles at all: he mostly just looks at the pictures. Later in the day, Bruno tested Philip to check that he had read the latest issue of The Modern Perfumer. He gave Philip a quote 4 from one of the articles, and asked Philip if he recognised it. "In a situation like this", thought Philip to himself, "lies 5 are the best tactic".
1 duty: This is the best choice here. The term "duty" shares a similar meaning with "obligation" or "requirement". This requirement can, for example, be moral or legal. Example: "It is my duty to inform you that your husband has a mistress". This is the same use of the term as in the conversation, when Sigourney says "it's my duty as a journalist to report on the facts", meaning that it is her obligation or responsibility to report the facts.
2 nonetheless: This is the best choice here. The term "nonetheless" shares a similar meaning with "however" or "nevertheless". These terms are used to contrast ideas. Example: "I don't enjoy watching football. But thanks for offering me the ticket nonetheless." This is the same usage as in the conversation, when Sigourney says "I can't guarantee anything, but thanks for calling nonetheless".
3 hardly: This is the best choice here. The term "hardly" shares a similar meaning with "barely", "scarcely", or "only just". Example: "I could hardly see because of all the smoke in the air". This is the same usage of the term as in the conversation, when Bruno quotes from Sigourney's article: "Bruno Delavigne is hardly fit to run a company".
4 quote: This is the best choice here. A "quote" is a "quotation" or "citation": words which are taken from elsewhere (e.g. a book, an article), and repeated. Example: "I found a useful Goethe quote online". This is the same usage of the term as in the conversation, when Bruno says "listen to this quote".
5 lies: This is the best choice here. "Lies" is the plural form of the term "lie". A "lie" is a "false statement", an "untruth", or a "deliberate deception". Example: "When I was a child, I used to tell lies to my teacher about my homework". This is the same usage of the term as in the conversation, when Bruno describes Sigourney's article as "slander and lies".
练习 2
"They made a killing last year, regardless of any of the bad publicity they've received over the years."

Another way to say this is: "They made a killing last year, any of the bad publicity they've received over the years."

(Choose the term which could replace "regardless of" and still fit the sentence grammatically.)
"They made a killing last year, regardless of any of the bad publicity they've received over the years."

Another way to say this is: "They made a killing last year, despite any of the bad publicity they've received over the years."

(Choose the term which could replace "regardless of" and still fit the sentence grammatically.)
despite: "Despite" means "in spite of" or "notwithstanding". It has the same meaning as "regardless" in this context. Both terms introduce contrast within a sentence.
although: "Although" has a similar meaning to "regardless of", however in this context it cannot be used. "Although" is used to make a link between two things. Example: Although he looked sad, he still smiled and played with the children. The phrase "although any of the bad publicity they've received over the years" is grammatically incorrect.
against: "Against" means to be opposed to something. It cannot be used in this sentence. The phrase "against any of the bad publicity they've received over the years" is grammatically incorrect, and does not express the same meaning as "despite" or "regardless".
nonetheless: "Nonetheless" means "however", or "nevertheless". It can have a similar meaning to "regardless", however it cannot be used in this context. The phrase "nonetheless any of the bad publicity they've received over the years" is grammatically incorrect.
