I    was    just    thinking    what    you    were    about    this    sense    of    a    lineage    to    the    Black    Panther    movement    and    what    we    were    just    regarding    internationalism    and    a    sense    of    unity.    And    it    kind    of    occurred    to    me    that,    you    know,    reading    things    like    Assata    Shakur's    autobiography    and    her    issues    with    the    black  .  Movement    in    the    1970s    were    very    much    the    patriarchal    structure    of    it,    and    the    fact    that    she    felt    that    that    black    Americans    weren't    recognising.    Internationality    of    black    across    the    world    and    I    really    felt    like    reviewing    it    recently    that    you    guys    have    a    lot    of    these    issues    or    you're    working    to    resolve    a    lot    of    these    issues.

Correct answer: remarking

Explanation: Listen again to "you were remarking about". You need an action word that ends in ing.

Meaning: "remarking" means saying something or making a short comment.

Wrong options:

  • remarcking: It adds an extra "c". Write "remarking". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • remembering: This is a different action. The speaker talks about commenting, not remembering.
Correct answer: discussing

Explanation: Here you hear "we were just discussing regarding". You need an action word that ends in ing.

Meaning: "discussing" means talking about something with others.

Wrong options:

  • discussed: "discussed" is a close word, but it ends in "ed". The speaker says "discussing", which ends in "ing".
Correct answer: liberation

Explanation: The speaker says "the black liberation Movement". It comes after "the black", so you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "liberation" means the act of gaining freedom or ending oppression.

Wrong options:

  • liberaton: It leaves out the "i". Write "liberation". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • liberty: "liberty" is a close word, but it ends in "ty". The speaker says "liberation", which ends in "ation".
Correct answer: issues

Explanation: You hear "internationality of black issues across". You need more than one, so the word ends in s.

Meaning: "issues" means topics or problems that affect people.

Wrong options:

  • issuses: It adds an extra "s". Write "issues". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
  • issue: "issue" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "issues", so write the "s".
Correct answer: resolved

Explanation: Listen for "you guys have resolved a lot". This already happened, so the word ends in ed.

Meaning: "resolved" means fixed or solved a problem.

Wrong options:

  • resloved: Two letters are in the wrong order. The right spelling is "resolved". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • resolve: "resolve" is missing the ending. The speaker says "resolved", with "d" at the end.
