Result:
As a chef dedicated to sustainable cooking, I believe it's crucial to prioritise local and seasonal ingredients. This not only supports our farmers but also reduces the carbon footprint associated with long-distance food transport. In my kitchen, we recycle all our waste, including using leftover food for compost. I also emphasise the importance of organic eating, which allows us to enjoy fresher ingredients while minimising our environmental impact. Lastly, I advocate for increasing meat consumption, as plant-based diets are more eco-friendly and healthier.

Printed "organic", the speaker says "seasonal"

Explanation: The speaker says "local and seasonal ingredients", not "organic". The two words start with different letters, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "recommend", the speaker says "emphasise"

Explanation: Listen for "I also emphasise the". The first letters differ, so you must hear the whole word carefully.

Printed "seasonal", the speaker says "organic"

Explanation: You will hear "importance of organic eating". The printed and spoken words start with different letters, so listen to the start.

Printed "effect", the speaker says "impact"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "our environmental impact". The words begin with different letters, but they end with the same last two letters.

Printed "reducing", the speaker says "increasing"

Explanation: Listen again to "for increasing meat consumption". The printed word does not make sense in the sentence, so click the printed word.

"farmers" matches the audio

Explanation: "supports our farmers but also" has a common word that looks easy to miss. The speaker says 'farmers' exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"compost" matches the audio

Explanation: "using leftover food for compost" includes a less common word that may look odd. The speaker says 'compost' exactly as written, so do not click it.
