Конечно! Вот подробное решение по каждому из заданий: --- ### I. Выберите правильное слово 1. I'll have to complete this work **within** (в течение) a week. (Правильный вариант: **within** — обозначает "в течение определенного времени".) 2. This will be a very important meeting. I ask you all to come **on** time. (Правильный вариант: **on** — указывается "приехать вовремя".) 3. A few years passed and **at** the end they met again. (Правильный вариант: **at** — употребляется с "end".) 4. I'm so glad that you've come **on** time to help the patient. (Правильный вариант: **on** — тоже "вовремя".) 5. The reader finds the truth only **at** the end of the book. (Правильный вариант: **at** — употребляется с "end".) 6. Don't worry, you can book the tickets now and pay for them **later**. (Правильный вариант: **later** — означает "позже", "после".) 7. We need an idea that can **unite** us. (Правильный вариант: **unite** — "объединить".) 8. World War II brought about a lot of **historic** changes in Europe. (Правильный вариант: **historic** — "исторические".) 9. Bob swims **like** a real sportsman. (Правильный вариант: **like** — "как".) 10. If you've got a large family, it's more **economical** to travel **by car** than **by train**. (Правильный вариант: **economical** — "экономичнее"; **by car** и **by train** — "на автомобиле" и "на поезде".) 11. One of Britain's most **notorious** criminals escaped from prison. (Правильный вариант: **notorious** — "одно из самых известных/плохо известных".) 12. Does Russia import a lot of **timber**? (Правильный вариант: **timber** — "лесоматериалы".) --- ### II. Используйте необходимые фразовые глаголы (to pick, to cut, to put, to speak) 1. We must **cut down** this dry tree. 2. I think Alec hates me: he is constantly **speaking on** me. (Лучше: **talking about** — более естественно, но в рамках заданий — по смыслу: **speak on** или **talk about**.) 3. The young men were asked to **put out** their cigarettes. 4. I won't accept "no" for an answer. I simply can't **give up** such a decision. 5. Could you **speak up**, please? We can't hear at the back. 6. Why did all his friends **cut off** a close relationship with John? 7. All the pictures were wonderful. It was so difficult to **pick out** the best. 8. **Peel** the tops off the carrots before cooking them. (Здесь правильнее использовать глагол **peel**, так как речь о очистке (шкурке). В списке глаголов его нет, но в задании подразумевалось действие "очистить", так что лучше оставить "peel".) --- ### III. Используйте пассивный залог (Passive Voice) 1. I'm afraid boss is not available at the moment: he **is being interviewed**. 2. This piece of advice **was given** to me many years ago. 3. Do you know when his new book **will be published**? 4.
