AI explanationShows the answer. Tap to open.
Correct answer: exhibit

Explanation: The speaker says "special art exhibit alongside". So you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "exhibit" means a public display of art or items.

Wrong options:

  • exibit: It leaves out the "h". Write "exhibit". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • exhibition: "exhibition" has an extra "ion" at the end. The speaker says "exhibit".
Correct answer: showcases

Explanation: You hear "traditional music and dance showcases". You need an action word that ends in s.

Meaning: "showcases" means presents or puts on for people to see.

Wrong options:

  • showcaces: It has "c" where the word has "s". Write "showcases". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • showcase: "showcase" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "showcases", so write the "s".
Correct answer: materials

Explanation: Listen for "all vendors using biodegradable materials". After "using" the sentence needs more than one thing and ends in s.

Meaning: "materials" means the items used to make or package things.

Wrong options:

  • materails: Two letters are in the wrong order. Check the letters: "materials". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
  • material: "material" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "materials", so write the "s".
Correct answer: mural

Explanation: On the recording you hear "contribute to a large mural depicting". After "large" you need a word for a big thing on a wall.

Meaning: "mural" means a large painting made directly on a wall.

Wrong options:

  • mueral: It adds an extra "e". The right spelling is "mural". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
