Correct answer: pastry
Explanation: Listen for "preparing the pastry, which". The word comes after "preparing the", so you need a word for a thing.
Meaning: "pastry" means the dough used for the pie crust.
Wrong options:
- pastrie: It has "ie" where the word has "y". The right spelling is "pastry". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
- pastries: "pastries" is a close word, but it ends in "ies". The speaker says "pastry", which ends in "y".
Correct answer: onions
Explanation: On the recording you hear "made from beef and onions, is". After "and" you need the word that is more than one, so do not forget the s.
Meaning: "onions" means small round vegetables used to give flavour.
Wrong options:
- onion: "onion" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "onions", so write the "s".
Correct answer: egg
Explanation: Listen again to "with a beaten egg to". The word follows "beaten", so you need a word for a thing.
Meaning: "egg" means the bird product used to give the crust a shine.
Wrong options:
- eg: It leaves out the "g". Write "egg". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
- eggs: This is more than one. The sentence asks for a single item after 'a'.
Correct answer: browned
Explanation: Here you hear "crust is perfectly browned and". The description shows the finished look, so the word ends in ed.
Meaning: "browned" means the crust has turned a golden brown colour.
Wrong options:
- brownd: It leaves out the "e". The right spelling is "browned". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
- brown: "brown" is missing the ending. The speaker says "browned", with "ed" at the end.
