Correct answer: cultivated
Explanation: You hear "would be cultivated to". This already happened, so the word ends in ed.
Meaning: "cultivated" means prepared and used for crops.
Wrong options:
- cultivatted: It adds an extra "t". Check the letters: "cultivated". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- cultivate: "cultivate" is missing the ending. The speaker says "cultivated", with "d" at the end.
Correct answer: ownership
Explanation: Listen for "need for ownership". It comes after "need for", so you need a word for a thing.
Meaning: "ownership" means the state of owning land.
Wrong options:
- ownship: It leaves out the "er". Check the letters: "ownership". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- ownerships: "ownerships" has an extra "s" at the end. The speaker says "ownership", with no "s".
Correct answer: intensive
Explanation: On the recording you hear "toward intensive farming". You need a describing word before farming.
Meaning: "intensive" means using the land a lot and often.
Wrong options:
- intansive: It has "a" where the word has "e". Check the letters: "intensive". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- intensively: "intensively" has an extra "ly" at the end. The speaker says "intensive".
Correct answer: allotted
Explanation: Listen again to "their allotted pieces of land". It comes after "their", so the word shows it was given and ends in ed.
Meaning: "allotted" means given to someone for use.
Wrong options:
- alloted: It leaves out the "t". Write "allotted". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
- allocate: The sentence needs the word that shows it was already given, not the action to give.
Correct answer: graze
Explanation: Here you hear "cattle to graze around". After "to" you need the plain word for the action.
Meaning: "graze" means to eat grass while walking around.
Wrong options:
- graz: It leaves out the "e". The right spelling is "graze". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
- grazing: "grazing" is a close word, but it ends in "ing". The speaker says "graze", which ends in "e".
