Meaning: "spends" means uses or passes time.

Wrong options:

• spend: "spend" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "spends", so write the "s".

Correct answer: faster

Explanation: On the recording you hear "do not make it faster". You need a describing word that shows more speed, it ends in er.

Meaning: "faster" means quicker.

Wrong options:

• fast: "fast" is missing the ending. The speaker says "faster", with "er" at the end.

Correct answer: bottom

Explanation: Listen again to "out of the bottom of". It comes after "the", so you need a word for a place or thing.

Meaning: "bottom" means the lowest part.

Wrong options:

• botom: It leaves out the "t". Check the letters: "bottom". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.

Correct answer: hearing

Explanation: Here you hear "such as hearing, touch, and". You need a word for a sense and it ends in ing.

Meaning: "hearing" means the ability to hear.

Wrong options:

• hear: "hear" is missing the ending. The speaker says "hearing", with "ing" at the end.

Correct answer: hunt

Explanation: The speaker says "can also hunt without". You need the plain word after "can also".

Meaning: "hunt" means to look for and catch food.

Wrong options:

• hount: It adds an extra "o". Write "hunt". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
• hunts: "hunts" has an extra "s" at the end. The speaker says "hunt", with no "s".

Correct answer: adaptations

Explanation: You hear "These are adaptations to". You need a word for features, so do not forget the s for more than one.

Meaning: "adaptations" means changes that help an animal live in a place.

Wrong options:

• adaptation: "adaptation" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "adaptations", so write the "s".
