This verb describes the act of being "parented" or instructed (often by one's mother and father). "Many people think that Horatio was raised 3 by wolves."
1 pie: A pie is a famous dish baked and filled with either fruit, vegetables or meat. It is usually surrounded by pastry crust, but some pies like shepherd's pie or fisherman's pie are covered in mashed potatoes. Other well known pies include steak and kidney pie, apple pie and lemon meringue pie. In this broadcast, Rachid exclaims that he is "as American as apple pie", an American expression which indicates that someone or something is 100% pure American, or a tradition as American as apple pie (which is traditionally American, although it wasn't invented by them!).
2 stripe: "Stripes" are bands of different colors which can be found on clothes, fabrics, paper and all kinds of surfaces as decoration. The American has 13 stripes in red and white to represent the 13 original colonies of the nation.
3 raised: Children are generally "raised" by their parents, meaning that they were educated and taught by them, or simply that they were "parented by them". A person can also be "raised" in France, meaning that France is the country where they "grew up" or spent the formative years of their life. When used to express these two meanings, the verb "raise" is used in the passive voice: I was raised by my uncle OR They were raised in New Mexico. In this broadcast, Rachid tells Brent and Moira that he was "born and raised" in Cleveland, Ohio (USA).

This word refers to a pattern of straight, parallel lines or bands.
Example: I wish I had black and white stripes 3 like a zebra!
1 tie: This is the correct choice. A "tie", or "necktie" is an article of clothing worn around the neck, generally for formal or professional occasions. In this dialogue, Philip asks Brian if he "owns a tie".
2 abilities: This is the correct choice. "Abilities" is a synonym for "skills" or "capacities". In this dialogue, Bruno claims that he has "the utmost confidence in Brian's abilities", meaning that he has a lot of confidence in Brian's capacity to sell.
3 stripes: This is the correct choice. A zebra has a pattern of stripes. So does a tiger. Clothing, such as Brian's tie in the dialogue, can also have stripes.
练习 4
The term row is used in the dialogue to describe where Bruno will be sitting during the show.

In the following sentences, choose the most appropriate term: row(s), line(s), or stripe(s). Each term is used once and once only!

I stood in for three hours, and managed to buy the new Hairy Pitta book on the day it came out!

The term row is used in the dialogue to describe where Bruno will be sitting during the show.

In the following sentences, choose the most appropriate term: row(s), line(s), or stripe(s). Each term is used once and once only!

I stood in line 1 for three hours, and managed to buy the new Hairy Pitta book on the day it came out!

For ten days in a row 2, I have been eating nothing but salad. I'm very hungry.

The flag of the USA is decorated with stars and stripes 3.
1 line: "Line" is the best choice here. In American English, "line" shares a similar meaning with "queue" in British English: a group of people waiting in an orderly manner. Example: "The line for the bathroom was too long, and I had an accident before it was my turn".
1 row: "Row" is not used to describe a "queue" of people waiting.
1 stripe: "Stripe" is not used to describe a "queue" of people waiting.
2 row: "Row" is the best choice here, as part of the expression "in a row". "In a row" can be used in a literal sense: "This morning, I saw ten penguins standing in a row" (meaning that the penguins were aligned, or standing shoulder to shoulder), or a figurative sense, particularly relating to time: "I've made your dinner for ten days in a row: now it's time for you to make mine" (meaning that the speaker has made dinner ten days consecutively.
2 line: "Ten days in a line" is not an English expression.
2 stripe: "Ten days in a stripe" does not make grammatical sense.
3 stripes: We say that the flag of the USA is decorated with "stars and stripes". "Stripes" is the name given to horizontal, vertical, or diagonal lines when they appear on fabric, animals or material. Example: "Tigers are covered in beautiful black stripes".
3 lines: It is unnatural to refer to the pattern appearing on flags, fabric, material, or animals, as "lines".
3 rows: It is unnatural to refer to the pattern appearing on flags, fabric, material, or animals, as "rows".
练习 5
Fill in the blanks with terms used in the article.

This is the name for a person who makes, repairs, and often sells clothes, especially suits: "My is rich: he makes a lot of money with the smart clothes he sells."

Now we're looking for the adjective which describes something (especially clothes) designed and made specifically for one person: "The President wears suits made especially for him. They always fit perfectly!"

This item is worn around the neck with a shirt. The best examples are made of silk: "I always wear a shirt and to the office, because it's important to look professional."

And finally! Now find the adjective which means "with lines": "Prisoners wear uniforms so that they can be recognised!"

Fill in the blanks with terms used in the article.

This is the name for a person who makes, repairs, and often sells clothes, especially suits: "My tailor 1 is rich: he makes a lot of money with the smart clothes he sells."

Now we're looking for the adjective which describes something (especially clothes) designed and made specifically for one person: "The President wears bespoke 2 suits made especially for him. They always fit perfectly!"

This item is worn around the neck with a shirt. The best examples are made of silk: "I always wear a shirt and tie 3 to the office, because it's important to look professional."

And finally! Now find the adjective which means "with lines": "Prisoners wear striped 4 uniforms so that they can be recognised!"
1 tailor: "Tailor" is the term we were looking for here. A "tailor" is a person who makes, repairs, alters, and sells clothes. Tailors often specialise in "smart" clothes such as suits. Note that there is a related verb: "to tailor". The original meaning of "to tailor" is "to cut clothes to fit a person", but it can also be used in a less literal context. Example: "Gymglish lessons are tailored to your needs and interests".
2 bespoke: "Bespoke" is the right answer. A "bespoke" suit is one which has been made by a tailor or clothes designer especially for you, and cut to the exact measurements of your body. Bespoke suits are expensive but look very smart! Like "to tailor", "bespoke" can also be used in a non-clothing context. Example: "We design bespoke kitchens for our customers: every request they make can be incorporated into the design". Note that the term "bespoke" is used much more frequently in Britain than in the USA. In the USA, "tailor made" is more common.
3 tie: "Tie" is the correct answer here. A "tie" or "neck tie" is a long thin strip of material which is tied in a knot at the neck. If you wear a tie with your shirt, it looks smart and professional!
4 striped: "Striped" is the term we were looking for here. If something is "striped", then it has "stripes": lines running either horizontally or vertically. Here's another example: "Striped shirts are in fashion this summer". Note that we can also say "stripy".
