Correct answer: digital

Explanation: You hear "a new digital loan". It comes after "new", so you need a word for a type of system.

Meaning: "digital" means using computers or the internet.

Wrong options:

  • digitial: It adds an extra "i". Check the letters: "digital". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
Correct answer: interactive

Explanation: Listen for "resources and interactive learning". It comes after "and", so you need a describing word that ends in ive.

Meaning: "interactive" means that users can take part and respond.

Wrong options:

  • interative: It leaves out the "c". Write "interactive". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • interesting: This word means something is boring or not. The sentence asks for a word meaning users take part.
Correct answer: literacy

Explanation: On the recording you hear "improving digital literacy among". It follows "digital", so you need a word for a skill that ends in cy.

Meaning: "literacy" means the ability to use and understand digital tools.

Wrong options:

  • litercy: It leaves out the "a". Check the letters: "literacy". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
Correct answer: tranquil

Explanation: Listen again to "providing a tranquil space for". It comes before "space", so you need a word that means calm.

Meaning: "tranquil" means quiet and peaceful.

Wrong options:

  • tranqil: It leaves out the "u". The right spelling is "tranquil". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
