练习 1

Do not confuse sake with Sake which is a delicious Japanese rice wine.
This is the correct choice. The expression "for your sake" is an implicit threat and is often used in tense situations such as this one. In this case Polly is emphasizing that it is in Archibald's best interests to resolve the problem of Delavigne's server as soon as possible.
Although Polly's statement is actually a threat, her words do not indicate that she or her company will take legal action against Archibald or Know-It-All Tech Solutions.
The expression "for your sake" does not express that Polly feels sorry for Archibald.
