Correct Transcript:

If you're someone who loves the great outdoors, then you'll definitely enjoy hearing about my latest adventure to Green Mountain National Park. This place is a true haven for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. During my visit, I had the pleasure of hiking along some of the most stunning trails, witnessing breath-taking views of the scenery. The park is home to a diverse range of wildlife, from deer to eagles. One of the highlights was the chance to see the famous Blue Falls, a waterfall that's not only magnificent but also incredibly serene. For those interested in overnight stays, the park offers several campsites where you can sleep under the stars.

Printed "sanctuary", the speaker says "haven"

Explanation: Listen for "true haven for anyone". You see "sanctuary" on the page, so click it. The words start with different letters, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "beautiful", the speaker says "stunning"

Explanation: You will hear "some of the most stunning trails". It's written as "beautiful" in the text, so click that. The meaning is close, so trust your ears, not the meaning.

Printed "landscape", the speaker says "scenery"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "views of the scenery". The text shows "landscape" instead, so click that. They start with different letters, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "deers", the speaker says "deer"

Explanation: Listen again to "from deer to eagles". On the page it reads "deers", so click that. The first letter is the same, so wait for the whole word.

Printed "extremely", the speaker says "incredibly"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "that's not only magnificent but also incredibly serene". It appears as "extremely" in the printed text, so click that. Both words end the same, so listen to the start.

Printed "peaceful", the speaker says "serene"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "incredibly serene". The printed text shows "peaceful", so click that. They start with different letters, so follow the sound.

Printed "camping", the speaker says "campsites"

Explanation: The speaker says "the park offers several campsites", not "camping". It appears on the page as "camping", so click that. The first letter is the same, so wait for the whole word.

Printed "sites", the speaker says "campsites"

Explanation: Listen for "several campsites where you". The printed line reads "sites", so click that. Both end with the same letters, so listen to the front of the word.

"Green" matches the audio

Explanation: "adventure to Green Mountain National Park" looks ordinary, but it matches the audio exactly. The speaker says it as printed, so do not click it.

"Blue" matches the audio

Explanation: "see the famous Blue Falls" might seem odd, yet the speaker names it the same way. It matches the recording, so do not click it.
