Meaning: "mammals" means animals like mice or rabbits.

Wrong options:

• mamals: It leaves out the "m". Check the letters: "mammals". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
• mammal: "mammal" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "mammals", so write the "s".

Correct answer: adaptable

Explanation: Listen again to "has emerged as a very adaptable nocturnal predator". It is a describing word that ends in able.

Meaning: "adaptable" means able to live or change in new places.

Wrong options:

• adaptible: It has "i" where the word has "a". The right spelling is "adaptable". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
• adaptive: "adaptive" is a close word, but it ends in "ive". The speaker says "adaptable", which ends in "able".

Correct answer: urban

Explanation: Here you hear "building up quite an urban population". It comes before population, so the word means city related.

Meaning: "urban" means relating to cities or towns.

Wrong options:

• urbun: It has "u" where the word has "a". The right spelling is "urban". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
• rural: This means countryside, the opposite of city.

Correct answer: native

Explanation: The speaker says "other native species". It comes before species, so you need a word for local kinds.

Meaning: "native" means originally from that place.

Wrong options:

• naitve: Two letters are in the wrong order. Check the letters: "native". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
