Meaning: "seafood" means food that comes from the sea.

Wrong options:

• sea food: This splits the word in two. It is one word. The right spelling is "seafood". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
• seefood: It has "e" where the word has "a". Write "seafood". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.

Correct answer: thoroughly

Explanation: Here you hear "prawns and mussels are thoroughly cleaned". You need a word that tells how, so the word ends in ly.

Meaning: "thoroughly" means very carefully and completely.

Wrong options:

• thorougly: It leaves out the "h". Write "thoroughly". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.

Correct answer: lightly

Explanation: The speaker says "must be lightly sautéed". You need a word that tells how, so it ends in ly.

Meaning: "lightly" means not very much or gently.

Wrong options:

• lightely: It adds an extra "e". Check the letters: "lightly". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
• light: "light" is missing the ending. The speaker says "lightly", with "ly" at the end.

Correct answer: authentic

Explanation: You hear "achieving that authentic Spanish taste". It comes before "Spanish", so the sentence needs a describing word.

Meaning: "authentic" means real or true, not fake.

Wrong options:

• authetic: It leaves out the "n". Write "authentic". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.

Correct answer: science

Explanation: Listen for "but also a science". It comes after "a", so you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "science" means a study or system of knowledge and method.

Wrong options:

• sience: It leaves out the "c". The right spelling is "science". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
