Correct answer: lighting
Explanation: Here you hear "how lighting can dramatically alter". You need a word for a thing that ends in ing.
Meaning: "lighting" means the arrangement or quality of light used.
Wrong options:
- ligting: It leaves out the "h". Write "lighting". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
- lightning: "lightning" is a close word, but it ends in "ning". The speaker says "lighting", which ends in "ing".
Correct answer: translucent
Explanation: The speaker says "such as translucent paper". It needs a describing word that tells how the paper lets light through.
Meaning: "translucent" means allowing some light to pass but not fully clear.
Wrong options:
- translucant: It has "a" where the word has "e". Check the letters: "translucent". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
- transparent: This means fully clear, not the same subtle effect the speaker describes.
Correct answer: shadows
Explanation: You hear "their own shadows can become". It follows "their own" so you need more than one.
Meaning: "shadows" means the dark shapes people make when light is blocked.
Wrong options:
- shaddows: It adds an extra "d". Write "shadows". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
- shadow: "shadow" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "shadows", so write the "s".
Correct answer: wonder
Explanation: Listen for "sense of wonder and contemplation". After "sense of" you need a feeling word.
Meaning: "wonder" means a feeling of surprise and admiration.
Correct answer: subtle
Explanation: On the recording you hear "the subtle interplay of shadows". You need a describing word, a short word that shows small or slight.
Meaning: "subtle" means small, not obvious, or delicate.
Wrong options:
- sutble: Two letters are in the wrong order. The right spelling is "subtle". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
