Printed "surprising", the speaker says "expressing"

Explanation: You will hear "a statement expressing". Both words end the same, and they start with different letters, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "best", the speaker says "set"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "set up". They start with different letters and the printed word is longer, so trust the audio.

Printed "recapitalize", the speaker says "recognize"

Explanation: Listen again to "recognize and eliminate". They start with the same letter, but the printed word is much longer.

Printed "men", the speaker says "women"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "women face". They end the same, but they start with different letters, so follow the sound.

Printed "power", the speaker says "empower"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "empower them". The printed word is shorter, and they end with the same letters, so listen to the full word.

"port" matches the audio

Explanation: "On January 30th port now issued" has the word port. It may look odd, but the speaker says it exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"mentor" matches the audio

Explanation: "We must welcome mentor and" shows the word mentor. It looks like a mistake, but the speaker actually says mentor, so do not click it.
