Meaning: "placement" means a short work position arranged by the university.

Wrong options:

• placment: It leaves out the "e". Write "placement". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.

Correct answer: journalist

Explanation: On the recording you hear "becomes a journalist intern". It comes before "intern", so you need a word for a person.

Meaning: "journalist" means a person who reports and writes news.

Wrong options:

• jouralist: It leaves out the "n". Check the letters: "journalist". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
• journal: "journal" is missing the ending. The speaker says "journalist", with "ist" at the end.

Correct answer: experience

Explanation: Listen again to "gain valuable experience in". It comes after "valuable", so you need a word for something you get from work.

Meaning: "experience" means the practical skills and knowledge you get by doing work.

Wrong options:

• experiance: It has "a" where the word has "e". The right spelling is "experience". Every letter must be correct to get the mark.

Correct answer: average

Explanation: Here you hear "On average, the program". You need a word about amount or usual length.

Meaning: "average" means the usual amount or typical length of time.

Wrong options:

• averaage: It adds an extra "a". Write "average". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
