Correct answer: backdrop

Explanation: Listen again to "motivational backdrop for exercise". The missing word is a thing that names a setting.

Meaning: "backdrop" means the background or setting.

Wrong options:

  • background: This is a different word. The sentence needs a word for a setting, not a general background.
Correct answer: unique

Explanation: Here you hear "offers unique health benefits". It comes before "health", so you need a describing word.

Meaning: "unique" means one of a kind or special.

Wrong options:

  • unieque: It adds an extra "e". Check the letters: "unique". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
Correct answer: wellness

Explanation: The speaker says "boosting mental wellness". The word describes a state of mind and means good health.

Meaning: "wellness" means good health, especially of the mind.

Wrong options:

  • wellnes: It leaves out the "s". Write "wellness". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • wellbeing: This is a different word. The speaker used the specific word for health, not this alternative.
Correct answer: consistency

Explanation: You hear "key is consistency and finding". It follows "key is", and the word ends in cy.

Meaning: "consistency" means doing things regularly and steadily.

Wrong options:

  • consistancy: It has "a" where the word has "e". The right spelling is "consistency". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • consistence: "consistence" is a close word, but it ends in "e". The speaker says "consistency", which ends in "y".
Correct answer: possibilities

Explanation: Listen for "exploring the possibilities". The word is more than one, so add s at the end.

Meaning: "possibilities" means different options you can try.

Wrong options:

  • possiblities: It leaves out the "i". The right spelling is "possibilities". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • possibility: "possibility" is a close word, but it ends in "y". The speaker says "possibilities", which ends in "ies".
