The  city  offers  reliable    options  for  travelers  heading  to  different  destinations.  One  popular  route  is  the  bus  to  Canada,  which  runs  .  It  takes  passengers  directly  to  Toronto,  a  bustling  city  known  for  its  culture  and  attractions.  The  journey  is  comfortable  and    for  most  people.  Air  transport  is  one  of  the  fastest  method  of  transport,  Commercial  jets  reach  speeds  of  up  to  955  kilometres  per  hour  (593  mph)  and  a  considerably  higher  ground  speed  if  there  is  a  jet  stream  tailwind.

Correct answer: transport

Explanation: The speaker says "offers reliable transport options". It comes after "offers reliable", so you need a word for a thing.

Meaning: "transport" means moving people or goods.

Wrong options:

  • transpor: It leaves out the "t". The right spelling is "transport". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • transportation: "transportation" has an extra "ation" at the end. The speaker says "transport".
Correct answer: daily

Explanation: You hear "which runs daily". You need a word that tells how often, so it ends in ly.

Meaning: "daily" means every day.

Wrong options:

  • daly: It leaves out the "i". Write "daily". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
Correct answer: affordable

Explanation: Listen for "comfortable and affordable for". It follows and, so you need a describing word, it ends in able.

Meaning: "affordable" means not too expensive.

Wrong options:

  • afordable: It leaves out the "f". The right spelling is "affordable". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.
  • affordible: It has "i" where the word has "a". Write "affordable". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
