Meaning: "exploding" means growing very fast.

Wrong options:

• exploading: It adds an extra "a". Check the letters: "exploding". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.

Correct answer: locally

Explanation: Here you hear "and then more locally, we've seen". After "more" you need a word that tells where, so it ends in ly.

Meaning: "locally" means in a small area or place.

Wrong options:

• localy: It leaves out the "l". Check the letters: "locally". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
• local: "local" is missing the ending. The speaker says "locally", with "ly" at the end.

Correct answer: eating

Explanation: The speaker says "Tasmanian waters eating all the". It needs an action word showing what they do, so it ends in ing.

Meaning: "eating" means feeding on or consuming.

Wrong options:

• eat: The sentence needs the ing form, not the plain word.

Correct answer: broadly

Explanation: You hear "look more broadly and more objectively". You need a word that tells how, so it ends in ly.

Meaning: "broadly" means in a wide or general way.

Wrong options:

• broadley: It adds an extra "e". The right spelling is "broadly". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
• broad: "broad" is missing the ending. The speaker says "broadly", with "ly" at the end.

Correct answer: expect

Explanation: Listen for "you might expect animals to do". After "might" the sentence needs an action word with no ending.

Meaning: "expect" means think will happen.

Wrong options:

• expects: "expects" has an extra "s" at the end. The speaker says "expect", with no "s".
