Correct answer: sunlight
Explanation: Listen for "require moderate sunlight, so". The word after 'moderate' is a thing, the light you get.
Meaning: "sunlight" means the light that comes from the sun.
Wrong options:
- sunlght: It leaves out the "i". Check the letters: "sunlight". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- sunlite: It leaves out the "gh" and it adds an extra "e". The right spelling is "sunlight". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
Correct answer: moist
Explanation: On the recording you hear "the soil is moist but". It comes after 'is', so you need a describing word.
Meaning: "moist" means slightly wet, not dry and not soaked.
Wrong options:
- moisst: It adds an extra "s". Check the letters: "moist". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
Correct answer: pruning
Explanation: Listen again to "regular pruning will keep". It follows 'regular', so the word ends in ing.
Meaning: "pruning" means cutting parts of the plant to keep it healthy.
Wrong options:
- prunning: It adds an extra "n". Check the letters: "pruning". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- prune: "prune" is a close word, but it ends in "e". The speaker says "pruning", which ends in "ing".
Correct answer: growth
Explanation: Here you hear "and encourage growth." It comes after 'encourage', so you need a word for a thing.
Meaning: "growth" means increase in size or health of the plant.
Wrong options:
- groth: It leaves out the "w". Check the letters: "growth". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- grown: "grown" is a close word, but it ends in "n". The speaker says "growth", which ends in "th".
