Correct Transcript:

The process of curating a new exhibit on ancient civilisations is both fascinating and complex. We begin by researching extensively to ensure that we represent each civilisation accurately. Our team collaborates closely with archaeologists to select artefacts that tell compelling stories. Additionally, we design interactive sections where visitors can learn about ancient technologies and their impact on modern society. A significant challenge is creating a narrative that is both educational and engaging, ensuring that visitors leave with a deeper understanding of history. Ultimately, our goal is to bridge the past with the present, making history accessible to everyone.

Printed "modern", the speaker says "ancient"

Explanation: Listen again to "on ancient civilisations". On the page you see "modern" instead, so click that printed word.

Printed "surveying", the speaker says "researching"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "by researching extensively". You see "surveying" on the page, and both words end the same, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "combines", the speaker says "collaborates"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "Our team collaborates closely". Both words start with the same letter, so wait for the full word to decide.

Printed "physical", the speaker says "interactive"

Explanation: The speaker says "design interactive sections", not "physical". You will hear a much longer word, so listen for extra parts in the spoken word.

Printed "globe", the speaker says "history"

Explanation: Listen for "understanding of history". They start with different letters, so the first sound will help you spot the change.

"curating" matches the audio

Explanation: "curating a new" may seem rare to you. The speaker says it as printed, so do not click it.

"artefacts" matches the audio

Explanation: The phrase "select artefacts that" may look tricky to spell. The speaker pronounces it exactly, so do not click it.
