Correct answer: art

Explanation: On the recording you hear "live performance art". It comes after "performance", so you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "art" means creative work like paintings or shows here.

Wrong options:

  • arts: The sentence needs the general word for creative work, not more than one.
Correct answer: stage

Explanation: Listen again to "Our main stage will feature". The word after "main" names a place for acts.

Meaning: "stage" means the place where people perform.

Wrong options:

  • stages: "stages" has an extra "s" at the end. The speaker says "stage", with no "s".
Correct answer: dancers

Explanation: Here you hear "poets, and dancers, bringing". It follows "and", so you need more than one person.

Meaning: "dancers" means performers who dance.

Wrong options:

  • dancer: "dancer" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "dancers", so write the "s".
  • dancres: Two letters are in the wrong order. The right spelling is "dancers". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
Correct answer: space

Explanation: The speaker says "to our community space". It comes after "community", so you need a word for a place.

Meaning: "space" means an area or place used by the community.

Wrong options:

  • spase: It has "s" where the word has "c". Write "space". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • place: The recording used the specific word 'space', not the different word 'place'.
Correct answer: delights

Explanation: You hear "culinary delights throughout the". It follows "culinary", so you need a word for tasty things.

Meaning: "delights" means tasty or pleasing foods here.

Wrong options:

  • delicacies: This is a different word with a different sound and meaning from the one heard.
