Correct answer: accessible

Explanation: The speaker says "make sustainability more accessible". You hear "more" before it, so use a describing word.

Meaning: "accessible" means easy to use or reach.

Wrong options:

  • accessable: It has "a" where the word has "i". The right spelling is "accessible". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • accessibility: "accessibility" is a close word, but it ends in "ility". The speaker says "accessible", which ends in "le".
Correct answer: tracker

Explanation: You hear "carbon footprint tracker". The word follows "a", so think of a thing that names an object.

Meaning: "tracker" means something that records or monitors progress.

Wrong options:

  • trackr: It leaves out the "e". Check the letters: "tracker". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
  • tracer: "tracer" is a close word, but it ends in "er". The speaker says "tracker", which ends in "ker".
Correct answer: impact

Explanation: Listen for "reduce their environmental impact". Because "their" is before it, you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "impact" means the effect on the environment.

Wrong options:

  • impakt: It has "k" where the word has "c". The right spelling is "impact". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
Correct answer: rewarding

Explanation: On the recording you hear "seamless and rewarding". A describing word is needed here, so it ends in ing.

Meaning: "rewarding" means giving satisfaction or benefit.

Wrong options:

  • rewareding: It adds an extra "e". Check the letters: "rewarding". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
  • rewarded: "rewarded" is a close word, but it ends in "ed". The speaker says "rewarding", which ends in "ing".
