There is an error in the quizz about money. It is written “Most student get by…” It should obviously be: Most students (pluriel).
Thank you. Also, please make the quizzes printable. Thanks again, your stuff is great for ESL teachers!

In the U.S. it would be “broke down”.
I can’t say that I have ever heard “splashed out” in any context whatsoever.
===================================
That answer was not correct.

The correct answer to:

I _____ and bought a new iPod last week.
is:
splashed out
