练习 1
Towards the end of the dialogue, Philip asks the nurse if he can .
Towards the end of the dialogue, Philip asks the nurse if he can sit down.
sit down: Philip says to the nurse "I'm really not feeling so great" and then asks him if he can "take a seat". To "take a seat" is an expression which means to "sit down".
take a chair: We should not interpret the expression "to take a seat" literally. Do not confuse the expression "take a seat" or "have a seat" with "take a chair", which is not an idiom, but literally means to "carry, remove or physically take a chair"
lie down: To "take a seat" does not mean to "lie down", which describes the act of lying horizontally on one's back, such as one might do in bed.
remove his clothing: To "take a seat" does not mean to "remove one's clothing", which describes the act of undressing.

This is a true statement. Icarus says "the problem has to do with our current business software". He is expressing that he is not satisfied with "Quickmate", Delavigne's current business software.
This statement is not true. Bob actually says that "Quickmate" is a "fine" program, which indicates that he does not believe that there is a problem with Delavigne's current business software.
This statement is not true. Bob says that "even kids with lemonade stands had a copy". He means that children who operated lemonade stands owned a copy. In this sense "a copy" is the software itself (a floppy disk or CD perhaps). Bob gives the example of "kids with lemonade stands" to express that the software was so popular that even children with small businesses (lemonade stands) had their own copies of the software. He is not saying that children "tried to copy" or "duplicate" the program.
This is a true statement. Icarus tells Bob "take a seat". This expression is a request to sit down.

Fill in the blank with an expression used in the dialogue meaning sit down:

Nerdy guy: Hello Edward. Please take a seat. (THREE words)
take a seat: "Take a seat" is the correct answer here. When we say "please take a seat", we are inviting someone to sit down. Example: "-Hello. I have an appointment with Mr Delavigne." "-Please take a seat. Mr Delavigne will be here shortly". This is a polite expression which is useful in both business and personal contexts!
