Answer:
The new clients are not responding to our new product the way we had hoped. frankly, I'm hardly beside myself with last month's sales.
Explanation:
First, we must understand the context before we can choose an appropriate answer. <u>The speaker is talking about something bad: customers not responding (not buying) the new product. He/She also mentions that last month's sales have already been bad.</u> This context, therefore, asks for an idiom that conveys a negative idea.
We can eliminate options A and C, since they both convey a positive feeling. We are left with options B and D. Option D, down in the dumps, means sad. <u>Option B, beside myself, means shocked or upset. The speaker is saying he/she is hardly... because of last month's sales. In that case, the best option is B. beside myself. What the speaker means is that, because last month was so bad, he/she is not even surprised or shocked to see the current response to the new product.</u>
As established in the quote "It is not a mere business; it is not even mere cynicism. It is mysticism; the horrible mysticism of money." The correct answer is option A. It emphasizes how money, the adoration of millionaires, and the desire for success can be horrible because they all promote greed. Because the quote emphasizes in the mysticism of money, it states that it is not only business, it is about the horrible mysticism of money. If we identify the meaning of mysticism, we can see that it is very related to the spiritual, it is to believe and defend realities coming from the paranormal, the religious or the spiritual. <u>Option A establishes that money is the adoration of millionaires, which is including the mystical in the man - money relationship, likewise, assures that the horrible thing about the desire for success or being a millionaire is that it finally becomes greed for having more.</u>
