Instructions ›
You will hear a recording. Type the missing words in each blank.
* Fill in the missing words into the blank fields
My  current  research  at  the  moment  is  really  quite  broad.  I  work  at  the  interface  between  the  Arts  and  Humanities,  particularly  ,  but  trying  to  find  questions  which  are  difficult  to  answer  unless  you  start  integrating  computing  and  .  So  really  I  work  in  this  boundary  between  trying  to  understand  cultural  questions  about  the  past,  but  those  sorts  of  questions  that  you  can't  address  unless  you  start  reconstructing,  start  modeling  and  visualizing  past    objects  and  movement  of  people.

Correct answer: archeology

Explanation: The speaker says "particularly archeology, but". It is a word for a field, a thing to study.

Meaning: "archeology" means the study of past human remains and sites.

Wrong options:

  • archaeology: It adds an extra "a". Check the letters: "archeology". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
  • archaeologist: This is a person who works in the field, not the field name.
Correct answer: visualization / visualisation

Explanation: You hear "computing and visualization." It is a word for making images, ends in tion. You can write "visualization" or "visualisation". Both get the mark.

Meaning: "visualization" means making images or pictures of data or ideas.

Wrong options:

  • visuals: "visuals" is a close word, but it ends in "s". The speaker says "visualization", which ends in "ization".
Correct answer: landscapes

Explanation: Listen for "past landscapes objects and". You need more than one place, so it ends in s.

Meaning: "landscapes" means areas of land or the shape of land in the past.

Wrong options:

  • landsacpes: Two letters are in the wrong order. The right spelling is "landscapes". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • landscape: "landscape" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "landscapes", so write the "s".
