Multiple Choice

What it would be the meaning of call up?

• telephone someone

• visit someone

• call by a name

Open Ended

What it would be a meaning of succeed in?

 The first example should say that the game was called because of rain. The expression called off means canceled, and that is the meaning that makes sense in this sentence. To call on someone is to visit someone, and this meaning does not make sense in this example. In the second example, it is not correct in English to count in someone. The correct expression is to count on someone.​
