Meaning: "electric" means using electricity to run.

Wrong options:

• electrical: "electrical" has an extra "al" at the end. The speaker says "electric".

Correct answer: regulations

Explanation: Listen for "government regulations from California". It comes after "government", so you need the word for rules and it ends in s.

Meaning: "regulations" means rules made by authorities.

Wrong options:

• regulaitons: Two letters are in the wrong order. Write "regulations". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
• regulation: "regulation" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "regulations", so write the "s".

Correct answer: mandates

Explanation: On the recording you hear "respond to these mandates". The word before is "these", so you need more than one.

Meaning: "mandates" means official orders or requirements.

Wrong options:

• mandats: It leaves out the "e". Write "mandates". Only the exact spelling gets the mark.
• mandate: "mandate" has no "s" at the end. The speaker says "mandates", so write the "s".

Correct answer: unattractive

Explanation: Listen again to "a little bit unattractive in some way". You need a describing word that starts with un and ends in ive.

Meaning: "unattractive" means not pleasing to look at or not appealing.

Wrong options:

• unatractive: It leaves out the "t". Check the letters: "unattractive". A small spelling mistake loses the mark.
• attractive: This is the opposite meaning. The sentence needs the negative form.
