Printed "assistants", the speaker says "advisers"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "one of our advisers will". Both words start with the same letter, so listen to the end of the word.

Printed "choose", the speaker says "select"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "please select one". The first letters are different, so listen to the whole word, not just the start.

Printed "exchange", the speaker says "interest"

Explanation: The speaker says "latest interest rates", not "exchange". The two words start with different letters, so follow the sound, not the meaning.

Printed "accounts", the speaker says "applications"

Explanation: Listen for "credit card applications". Both words start with the same letter, and the spoken word is much longer.

"Bank" matches the audio

Explanation: "All Trust Bank." may look formal and catch your eye. It is spoken exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"Press" matches the audio

Explanation: "Press 1 to check" sits next to the changed words and may distract you. The speaker says "press" exactly, so do not click it.
