Hi, my name is Tony, and today we're going to talk about how we office workers can stay in good condition.

13. 文意是右手小拇指(pinkie)骨折
14. recover 復原 v.
15. cast當名詞有塑膠板的意思，所以文意上是把小拇指放入軟塑膠板中，用來固定骨折部位
16. bruise 瘀青
17. shoulder 肩膀
該答案可從下一句的I fell off my ladder判斷
18. get an X-ray 照X光

PeiJ

1. wind up
說實話我也沒看過這個片語用法，但是在下一句重複出現這個片語，所以我判斷它當動詞使用，而且文意上是跟診斷有關
2. syndrome 病症
3. pain 痛
前面的carpal tunnel看起來是一個專有名詞，加上後面有補充說明身體部位，所以合理判斷是一個病症引發疼痛
4. overweight 體重過重
5. physical 身體的
4.和5.中間有and對等連接詞，所以判斷兩者有一定的關聯性，故答案是overweight和poor physical condition
5. stretch 伸展 v.

7. annual 年度的
8. celebration 慶祝
這句話我覺得很饒口，直譯就是今年的年度年終慶祝
9. reception 招待會
前面有awards dinner，兩者具有關聯性
10. chartered 特許
這裡要放被動動詞，所以答案是選項中唯一是動詞型態的chartered
11. feast 宴席
前面是形容詞grand盛大的，組合起來的grand feast符合句首的Come ready to eat
12. champagne 香檳
plenty of+N，文意上也符合前面的grand feast
