Correct Transcript:

The new Yankee Stadium has opened in the Bronx. I went to a game Saturday, and it's a much friendlier place for anyone trying to eat healthfully and maintain some environmental awareness. When I entered the park I stopped at the produce stand the produce stand and bought a couple of fresh pears. Later I went to the Noodle Bowl stand, where for $8.501 got a bowl of noodles, veggies and tofu. Tofu at the ballpark. The snack was listed on the menu board at 240 calories. All the food choices have calorie counts posted now, so you can avoid, or still indulge in, the almost 1,100 calorie Moe’s Homewrecker Burrito at La Esquina Latina. I also had a caramel apple. Which as junk food goes is still pretty good.

Printed "compatibility", the speaker says "healthfully"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "to eat healthfully and maintain". The printed word "compatibility" is on the page. They start with different letters, and the printed word is much longer, so trust your ears.

Printed "grain", the speaker says "maintain"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "maintain some environmental awareness". The printed word "grain" is on the page. They start with different letters, but both end with the same letters, so listen to the whole word.

"Bronx" matches the audio

Explanation: "opened in the Bronx." has a place name that looks tricky. The speaker says it exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"produce" matches the audio

Explanation: "stopped at the produce stand the produce" repeats a common word. It may seem odd, but the speaker says it exactly, so do not click it.
