Result:
Remember two things, First I want you to try and remember learning how to ride a bike. Maybe you have a scar you receive when you flipped over the handlebars. The next thing I want you to remember is how to ride a bike. The reason I asked you to recall both of these memories is that they belong to two different designated realms of memory. Memory is a fluid and dynamic system that is exceedingly complicated. To this end, psychologists have attempted to divide memory up to make it easier to study. There are two main categories. Explicit memory is a memory that can be intentionally and consciously recalled. This is your memory of riding a bike and falling over the handlebars and skinning your knee.

Printed "will", the speaker says "want"

Explanation: The speaker says "First I want you", not "will". Both words start with the same letter, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "gave", the speaker says "receive"

Explanation: Listen for "a scar you receive when". The words start with different letters, so listen to the first sound carefully.

Printed "recent", the speaker says "recall"

Explanation: You will hear "asked you to recall". The first letter is the same, so wait for the whole word to confirm it.

Printed "multiply", the speaker says "divide"

Explanation: On the recording the words are "attempted to divide memory", not "multiply". These words start with different letters and mean almost the opposite, so trust your ears.

Printed "mean", the speaker says "memory"

Explanation: Listen again to "Explicit memory is a". Both start with the same letter, but the spoken word is longer.

Printed "inside", the speaker says "over"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "falling over the handlebars". The printed word starts with a different letter, so listen to the first sound.

"handlebars" matches the audio

Explanation: "flipped over the handlebars." That long word looks tricky, but the speaker says it exactly as printed. Do not click it.

"bike" matches the audio

Explanation: "learning how to ride a bike." It repeats often and may distract you, so do not click it.
