Correct answer: emissions
Explanation: Listen for "reducing carbon emissions". The sentence needs a word for things released, and it ends in s.
Meaning: "emissions" means gases released into the air.
Wrong options:
- emisions: It leaves out the "s". The right spelling is "emissions". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
- emission: "emission" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "emissions", so write the "s".
Correct answer: fuels
Explanation: On the recording you hear "dependence on fossil fuels". It comes after "fossil", so you need more than one and do not forget the s.
Meaning: "fuels" means materials like coal or oil used for energy.
Wrong options:
- fuel: "fuel" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "fuels", so write the "s".
Correct answer: pollutants
Explanation: Listen again to "releasing harmful pollutants". The sentence needs a word for bad things in the air, and it ends in s.
Meaning: "pollutants" means harmful substances that dirty the air.
Wrong options:
- pollutant: "pollutant" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "pollutants", so write the "s".
- pollutents: It has "e" where the word has "a". The right spelling is "pollutants". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
Correct answer: development
Explanation: Here you hear "promotes sustainable development". It comes after "sustainable", so you need a word for growth that ends in ment.
Meaning: "development" means the process of growing or improving over time.
Wrong options:
