* Fill in the missing words into the blank fields
Good  morning,  everyone!  As  we  gear  up  for  this  year  local  arts  festival,  I  am  thrilled  to  share  some  updates  on  what  we  have  planned.  Our  festival  will  showcase  a  diverse  range  of  art  ,  from  traditional  paintings  to  modern  digital  .  We  are  collaborating  with  artists  across  the  community  to  create  an  inclusive  and  vibrant  .  This  year,  we  are  also  focusing  on  sustainability,  with  eco-friendly  practices  at  the  heart  of  our  .  From  recycled  materials  for  installations  to  digital  programs  reducing  paper  use,  we  are  committed  to  a  greener  festival.  Additionally,  there  will  be  interactive    for  attendees  of  all  ages,  fostering  a  deeper  appreciation  for  the  arts.

Correct answer: forms

Explanation: On the recording you hear "art forms, from". After "art" you need a word for a thing that is more than one.

Meaning: "forms" means more than one type or kind.

Wrong options:

  • foms: It leaves out the "r". Check the letters: "forms". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
  • form: "form" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "forms", so write the "s".
Correct answer: installations

Explanation: Listen again to "modern digital installations". Following "digital" you need a word for things, so add s at the end.

Meaning: "installations" means art pieces set up in a place.

Wrong options:

  • instalations: It leaves out the "l". Write "installations". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • installation: "installation" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "installations", so write the "s".
Correct answer: event

Explanation: Here you hear "inclusive and vibrant event". Because "a" is before it, you need one word for a thing.

Meaning: "event" means a special organised activity.

Wrong options:

  • evnt: It leaves out the "e". The right spelling is "event". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • events: "events" has an extra "s" at the end. The speaker says "event", with no "s".
Correct answer: planning

Explanation: The speaker says "heart of our planning". The phrase uses "our", so pick a word that ends in ing.

Meaning: "planning" means the work to organise the festival.

Wrong options:

  • planing: It leaves out the "n". The right spelling is "planning". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • plans: "plans" is a close word, but it ends in "s". The speaker says "planning", which ends in "ning".
Correct answer: workshops

Explanation: You hear "interactive workshops for attendees". After "interactive" you need more than one hands-on activity, so use s.

Meaning: "workshops" means group sessions where people learn and do things.

Wrong options:

  • workshps: It leaves out the "o". Write "workshops". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • workshop: "workshop" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "workshops", so write the "s".
