This is a very strange exercise.

#1 is asking about the function of a word.
#2 is asking about the definition of a word.
#3 appears to be a comprehension question about a reading passage.

Are you sure you want to cover such a wide range in one exercise?

Hi 5jj,
Thank you so much for your answer.
That's what I thought; the exercise was covering a wide range in one. Then, could you tell me which directions are the most appropriate ones for each one please?
