Correct answer: translucent
Explanation: Listen for "until they're translucent". The word describes the onions' look, a describing word.
Meaning: "translucent" means slightly see-through.
Wrong options:
- transluscent: It adds an extra "s". The right spelling is "translucent". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
- transparent: This is a different word. The speaker said translucent.
Correct answer: stock
Explanation: On the recording you hear "along with the chicken stock". It comes after "chicken", so you need a word for a cooking liquid.
Meaning: "stock" means a clear cooking liquid made from bones and vegetables.
Wrong options:
- stok: It leaves out the "c". Check the letters: "stock". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
Correct answer: continuously
Explanation: Listen again to "stirring continuously". You need a word that tells how, so the word ends in ly.
Meaning: "continuously" means without stopping.
Wrong options:
- continously: It leaves out the "u". Check the letters: "continuously". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- constantly: This word is similar in meaning, but the recording used continuously.
Correct answer: richness
Explanation: Here you hear "for that perfect richness". The sentence needs a word for a thing, ending in ness.
Meaning: "richness" means full flavour and body in the dish.
Wrong options:
- richess: It leaves out the "n". Write "richness". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
- rich: "rich" is missing the ending. The speaker says "richness", with "ness" at the end.
