Printed "stocking", the speaker says "survivor"

Explanation: The speaker says "representative survivor of", not "stocking". Both words start with the same letter, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "preferences", the speaker says "problems"

Explanation: Listen for "current health problems as". The printed word is much longer, so trust the sound, not the length.

Printed "interaction", the speaker says "intervention"

Explanation: You will hear "government intervention or", not "interaction". Both words start the same and end with the same letters, so hear the middle carefully.

Printed "glows", the speaker says "gone"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "specifically to children gone is", not "glows". Both words start with the same letter, but they end differently, so listen to the end.

Printed "however", the speaker says "amongs"

Explanation: Listen again to "public support amongs that". The two words start with different letters, so the first sound will help you choose.

"Charles" matches the audio

Explanation: "the Charles Perkins Centre" is a name on the page. The speaker says it exactly as printed, so do not click it.

"private" matches the audio

Explanation: "The private sector is starting" may seem off, but the speaker says the word exactly as printed. Do not click it.
