Exercise

Apart from the words above, this lesson has more vocabulary. It will be played as a Listening. While you listen, fill in the missing vocabulary the best you can in Exercise 1. If you don’t hear it fully, try to write anything you do hear including pronunciation and even the first letter of the word. Then do Exercise 2.

Now listen to the same missing vocabulary in a sentence. Listen for and write down in Exercise 3 the word from the list as well as what you believe would be an appropriate synonym in each situation. There may be more than one correct answer, and try to match the meaning more than the grammar being used.
