Correct answer: developing

Explanation: You hear "discovering and developing their own". You need an action word that ends in ing.

Meaning: "developing" means growing or becoming stronger.

Wrong options:

  • develping: It leaves out the "o". The right spelling is "developing". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • develop: "develop" is missing the ending. The speaker says "developing", with "ing" at the end.
Correct answer: responds

Explanation: Listen for "how the teenager responds to". An action word comes after "teenager", so do not forget the s.

Meaning: "responds" means answers or reacts to something.

Wrong options:

  • resonds: It leaves out the "p". The right spelling is "responds". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • respond: "respond" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "responds", so write the "s".
Correct answer: academics

Explanation: On the recording you hear "With academics, the consideration". It is a word for school subjects, and it ends in s.

Meaning: "academics" means school subjects or school work.

Wrong options:

  • acadamics: It has "a" where the word has "e". Write "academics". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • academic: "academic" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "academics", so write the "s".
Correct answer: consistency

Explanation: Listen again to "When we look at consistency between". You need a word for a thing, person or idea that ends in y for sameness.

Meaning: "consistency" means sameness or regular pattern over time.

Wrong options:

  • consitency: It leaves out the "s". The right spelling is "consistency". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • consistent: "consistent" is a close word, but it ends in "t". The speaker says "consistency", which ends in "cy".
Correct answer: skills

Explanation: Here you hear "is developing skills for self-regard". It comes after "developing", so you need more than one and do not forget s.

Meaning: "skills" means abilities or things someone can do.

Wrong options:

  • skils: It leaves out the "l". The right spelling is "skills". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • skill: "skill" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "skills", so write the "s".
