Fill in the blanks below with terms used in the dialogue!

In his message, Philip asks Icarus to [not done] reimburse 1 him for the ticket he has [not done] booked 2.

Icarus says that he cannot answer the phone because he is "on vacation 3".

Now, find a synonym for the term above. In the UK, we usually say we are "on holiday 4". (This term was not used in the dialogue).

Finally, "ASAP" is an abbreviation of: [not done] as 5 [not done] soon 6 [not done] as 7 [not done] possible 8.
1 reimburse: "Reimburse" is the correct term here. To "reimburse (someone for something they have bought)" is to pay them back what they have spent, or to return their money to them. Here's another example: "All employees will be reimbursed for the tickets they purchase".
2 booked: "Booked" is the correct term to complete this sentence. To "book" a ticket is to "buy" or "reserve" a ticket. Example: "I've booked a table for three at the restaurant tonight".
3 vacation: "Vacation" is the right answer. To be "on vacation" is to be taking a break from work or school, and perhaps sunbathing on a beach or visiting a foreign city. Example: "I'm on vacation until September 12th, so please leave a message with my secretary".
4 holiday: "Holiday" is the term used in the UK to describe a "vacation" or break from work, often involving travel. Example: "I got a great tan when I was on holiday in Scotland". Note that we can also say that someone is "on leave", which is a more neutral term that doesn't imply any particular activity or trip.
5 as: "As" is the right term to begin this common expression.
6 soon: "Soon" is the best choice here.
7 as: "As" is needed again here.
8 possible: "Possible" is the final word in this idiom!
