Correct answer: integrating

Explanation: The speaker says "We are integrating green spaces". It comes after "are" so you need an action word ending in ing.

Meaning: "integrating" means joining things together.

Wrong options:

  • integating: It leaves out the "r". The right spelling is "integrating". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • integrate: "integrate" is a close word, but it ends in "e". The speaker says "integrating", which ends in "ing".
Correct answer: quality

Explanation: You hear "improving air quality." It comes after "air", so you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "quality" means how good something is.

Wrong options:

  • quailty: Two letters are in the wrong order. Write "quality". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • quantity: This gives amount, not how good something is.
Correct answer: standards

Explanation: Listen for "green building standards". The word comes after "building" and is more than one, so do not forget s at the end.

Meaning: "standards" means rules or levels expected.

Wrong options:

  • standars: It leaves out the "d". Write "standards". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • standard: "standard" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "standards", so write the "s".
Correct answer: reflects

Explanation: On the recording you hear "commitment to this project reflects our". After "project" the sentence needs an action word that ends in s.

Meaning: "reflects" means shows or demonstrates.

Wrong options:

  • reflets: It leaves out the "c". The right spelling is "reflects". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • reflect: "reflect" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "reflects", so write the "s".
