Our  community's  farmers'  market  is  back  this  season,  bringing  together  local  farmers,  artisans,  and  consumers  in  a  celebration  of  fresh,  locally  sourced    and  handcrafted  .  Every  Saturday,  our  marketplace  becomes  a  bustling  hub  of  activity,  offering  everything  from  organic  fruits  and    to  homemade  jams  and    bread.  It's  a  great  opportunity  to  support  local  businesses  and  enjoy  the  health  benefits  of  eating  fresh.  Additionally,  we  host  cooking  demonstrations  and  workshops  on    living,  making  it  a  perfect  outing  for  the  whole  family.

Correct answer: produce

Explanation: Listen again to "locally sourced produce and". It comes after 'locally sourced', so you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "produce" means fresh fruits and vegetables sold at the market.

Wrong options:

  • prodcue: Two letters are in the wrong order. The right spelling is "produce". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • products: "products" is a close word, but it ends in "ts". The speaker says "produce", which ends in "e".
Correct answer: goods

Explanation: Here you hear "handcrafted goods Every". It comes after 'handcrafted', so you need a word for things.

Meaning: "goods" means items made to sell, like crafts and food.

Correct answer: vegetables

Explanation: The speaker says "organic fruits and vegetables to". After 'fruits and' you need more than one, so do not forget s.

Meaning: "vegetables" means plant foods like carrots and leafy greens.

Wrong options:

  • vegatables: It has "a" where the word has "e". The right spelling is "vegetables". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • vegetable: "vegetable" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "vegetables", so write the "s".
Correct answer: artisan

Explanation: You hear "homemade jams and artisan bread". It follows 'and', so the sentence needs a describing word for bread.

Meaning: "artisan" means made by hand with care, not mass produced.

Wrong options:

  • artisian: It adds an extra "i". The right spelling is "artisan". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • artisanal: "artisanal" has an extra "al" at the end. The speaker says "artisan".
Correct answer: sustainable

Explanation: Listen for "on sustainable living, making". You need a describing word that ends in able.

Meaning: "sustainable" means using resources in a way that can continue long term.

Wrong options:

  • sustaianable: It adds an extra "a". The right spelling is "sustainable". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • sustenable: This is a different word form and not the exact spelling used here.
