Explicación

A is incorrect: the caller clearly mentioned the destination, and the agent later asked about bus or train B is incorrect: there was no mention of time confusion, only the arrival before 11am. C is correct because the agent thought Bayswater was the destination, while the caller clarified it was the origin.

The audio clearly states that Naomi Flynn is the counsellor responsible for welcoming first-time students and she specializes in seeing new students.

Option A: The word secret is pronounced /ˈsiː.krət/, with a clear /k/ sound in the middle. Option B: Sacred is pronounced /ˈseɪ.krɪd/, with the long vowel /eɪ/ as in say and ending in /ɪd/. This makes it sound different from secret, even if they look similar. Option C: Discreet is pronounced /dɪˈskriːt/, with a long /iː/ sound at the end. It’s a real English word, but it doesn’t fit the context of a novel title.

Correct Option B: The ad narrates a sensory journey (“feel again”) rather than showing numbers, experts, or technology. In advertising, storytelling doesn't necessarily mean telling a story with characters and a linear plot (like in a movie), but rather constructing an emotional and sensory narrative that leads the viewer to identify with or imagine themselves in the experience.

✅ Correct answer: B. Elizabeth Gilbert is using a third conditional structure (If I had + past participle, I would have + past participle) to imagine an unreal situation in the past. Why not A? Option A is wrong because she is not describing something that really happened — she never actually gave up writing. Why not C? Option C is also wrong because the structure does not refer to the future. It reflects a hypothetical past and its consequence.

“have I had” ✅ Correct! This uses negative inversion properly: Never + auxiliary + subject + past participle.

The audio says: “Aboriginal people in Northern Australia have used native plants, seeds and fruits to make medicines and remedies.” The verb “have used” shows that this is something Aboriginal people started in the past and still do in the present. Therefore, option B is correct because it reflects the ongoing use of traditional bush medicine in Australia.

In the audio, it clearly says: “But be warned, thousands of people will be competing for each post.” This means the main reason why the competition is intense is that there are thousands of candidates for every job.

Throughout the dialogue, the interviewer keeps asking unusual, joking, and slightly provocative questions. These are not serious interview questions but playful ones

The speaker explicitly says, “My skin is really good and my hair is much shinier.” Both of these are clear references to her physical appearance, which is why this is the right answer.
