    I will call you on Tuesday to arrange a ____________ meeting.

    • Eye-to-eye

    • Face-to-face

    • Head-to-head

    • Nose-to-nose

    Correct Answer
    A. Face-to-face
    Explanation
    The phrase "face-to-face" is the correct answer because it is commonly used to describe a meeting where people are physically present and able to see each other directly. It implies a level of personal interaction and engagement that is not present in the other options. "Eye-to-eye" could also be a possible answer, but "face-to-face" is more commonly used in this context. "Head-to-head" and "nose-to-nose" are not appropriate phrases to describe a meeting arrangement.

    • Unemployed

    • Employer

    Correct Answer
    A. Employer
    Explanation
    The word "employer" is the correct answer because it refers to a person or organization that hires and pays employees. In the given options, "employee" is the person who is hired by the employer, "employ" means to give someone a job, and "unemployed" refers to someone who does not have a job. Therefore, "employer" is the only option that fits the context of the sentence, indicating that the person being referred to can provide more information about the previous employer.

    • Personal

    • In human

    • In person

    • For a chat

    Correct Answer
    A. In person
    Explanation
    The phrase "in person" means face-to-face or physically present. In this context, the speaker is expressing a desire to meet with the person directly rather than through any other means such as a phone call or email. The word "personally" in the question also indicates that the speaker wants to have a personal meeting. Therefore, the correct answer is "in person."

    • Inquire/ ask about

    • Asking

    Correct Answer
    A. Inquire/ ask about
    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "inquire/ ask about". In the sentence, the writer is expressing their intention to ask or inquire about the possibility of joining the company. The word "kysyä" in the original sentence is a Finnish word that translates to "inquire/ ask about" in English. Therefore, this option accurately reflects the meaning and intent of the sentence.

    • Responding

    Correct Answer
    A. In response to
    Explanation
    The phrase "in response to" is the correct answer because it accurately completes the sentence and conveys the intended meaning. It indicates that the person is writing as a reaction or reply to the ad in Helsingin Sanomat. The other options either use incorrect prepositions or verb forms that do not fit grammatically or contextually.

    I have a (paljon) deal of experience in

    • Big

    • Great

    • Awesome

    • Large

    Correct Answer
    A. Great
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "great". This is because "great" is an adjective that can be used to describe experience. It implies a high level of skill or knowledge in a particular area. The other options, such as "big", "awesome", and "large", do not convey the same level of expertise or proficiency.

    • Expertise

    • Experienced

    • Expert

    Correct Answer
    A. Expertise
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "expertise." In the sentence, the person is stating that their main area of knowledge or skill is joinery. "Expertise" refers to having a high level of knowledge or skill in a particular field or subject, which fits well with the context of the sentence. The other options do not convey the same meaning as "expertise."

    • In details

    • Detailly

    • Details

    Correct Answer
    A. In detail
    Explanation
    The phrase "in detail" is the correct answer because it is the appropriate way to express the desire to discuss the specific aspects or particulars of a project. The other options are grammatically incorrect or do not convey the same meaning. "In details" is incorrect because "detail" should be used in the singular form. "Detailly" is not a word in the English language. "Details" is incorrect because it does not convey the same level of specificity as "in detail."
