Meaning: "criticisms" means complaints or negative comments.

Wrong options:

• critisims: It has "s" where the word has "c" and it leaves out the "s". Check the letters: "criticisms". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
• criticism: "criticism" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "criticisms", so write the "s".

Correct answer: element

Explanation: Here you hear "collaborative element and digital". It comes after "collaborative", so you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "element" means a part or item included in something.

Wrong options:

• elemet: It leaves out the "n". Write "element". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
• elements: "elements" has an extra "s" at the end. The speaker says "element", with no "s".

Correct answer: innovators

Explanation: The speaker says "students as design innovators". After "design" the sentence needs a word for people, so use a word for more than one.

Meaning: "innovators" means people who create new ideas or products.

Wrong options:

• inovators: It leaves out the "n". The right spelling is "innovators". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
• innovator: "innovator" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "innovators", so write the "s".

Correct answer: colloquial

Explanation: You hear "ideas colloquial judgments are evident". The sentence needs a describing word for informal speech, so it ends in al.

Meaning: "colloquial" means informal or everyday language.

Wrong options:

• colloqual: It leaves out the "i". Write "colloquial". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
• colloquially: "colloquially" has an extra "ly" at the end. The speaker says "colloquial".
