Correct answer: accessible

Explanation: Here you hear "provide accessible reading materials". It comes after "provide", so you need a describing word that ends in ble.

Meaning: "accessible" means easy to get or use.

Wrong options:

  • accessable: It has "a" where the word has "i". The right spelling is "accessible". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
Correct answer: underserved

Explanation: The speaker says "reach underserved areas". It comes before "areas", so you need a describing word that ends in ed.

Meaning: "underserved" means not getting enough help or services.

Wrong options:

  • underservd: It leaves out the "e". The right spelling is "underserved". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • underprivileged: A different word was spoken.
Correct answer: ages

Explanation: You hear "people of all ages". After "all" you need more than one, so the word has an s at the end.

Meaning: "ages" means different age groups.

Wrong options:

  • agees: It adds an extra "e". The right spelling is "ages". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • stages: This is a different word and does not fit here.
Correct answer: crucial

Explanation: Listen for "participation are crucial for". It comes after "are", so you need a describing word. It ends in al.

Meaning: "crucial" means very important.

Wrong options:

  • crutial: It has "t" where the word has "c". Write "crucial". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • critical: A different word was spoken.
