Meaning: "starvation" means extreme lack of food.

Wrong options:

• starvtion: It leaves out the "a". Write "starvation". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.

Correct answer: obstruct

Explanation: On the recording you hear "problems that obstruct raising". You need an action word after "that".

Meaning: "obstruct" means to block or stop something.

Wrong options:

• obstrct: It leaves out the "u". The right spelling is "obstruct". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.

Correct answer: manifesto

Explanation: Listen again to "amend the manifesto to". The word follows "amend", so you need a document name.

Meaning: "manifesto" means a public statement of aims or plans.

Wrong options:

• manefesto: It has "e" where the word has "i". Check the letters: "manifesto". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
• manifest: "manifest" is missing the ending. The speaker says "manifesto", with "o" at the end.

Correct answer: resolution

Explanation: Here you hear "so that a resolution will be". You need a word for a formal decision, it ends in tion.

Meaning: "resolution" means a formal decision or plan agreed by people.

Wrong options:

• resoulution: It adds an extra "u". The right spelling is "resolution". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
• solution: Solution is different. It does not mean a formal decision here.

Correct answer: eliminate

Explanation: The speaker says "plans made to eliminate starvation". You need an action word that means remove completely.

Meaning: "eliminate" means to remove or get rid of completely.

Wrong options:

• elimanate: It has "a" where the word has "i". Check the letters: "eliminate". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
