Test 3 (Module 3). Vocabulary A) Choose the correct word to fill in the gaps. 1. spotted glanced a) I've just __spotted__ Michael - he's over there, near the entrance. b) He __glanced__ around to make sure that the audience was ready to hear his speech. Explanation: In this question, we are looking for two words that describe looking at someone or something briefly. "Spotted" means to see or notice something or someone, while "glanced" means to take a quick look. Based on the context, the correct answer for the first gap is "spotted" because the sentence is stating that the speaker has recently seen or noticed Michael. 2. reflection shadow e) She was looking at her __reflection__ in the mirror. f) Jamie followed his mother around all day like a __shadow__. Explanation: For this question, we need to choose two words that describe different aspects of seeing an image or a person. "Reflection" refers to the image that is seen in a mirror or any other reflective surface. "Shadow" refers to an area where light is blocked by an object, resulting in a dark image. The sentence suggests that the person is looking at their own image in the mirror, indicating that the correct answer for the first gap is "reflection". In the second sentence, it is comparing Jamie following his mother closely to a shadow, which is a fitting metaphor. 3. imagination illusion g) Jonathan's vivid __imagination__ is what makes him able to write spine-chilling ghost stories. h) Did the magician really make the man disappear or was it just an optical __illusion__? Explanation: In this question, we need to select two words related to the mind and perception. "Imagination" refers to the ability to create images and ideas in one's mind. "Illusion" refers to something that deceives the senses, often creating a false or misleading perception. The first sentence suggests that Jonathan's ability to write spooky stories stems from his vivid imagination, making "imagination" the correct choice. The second sentence poses a question about whether the magician's act was a real disappearance or an optical trick, indicating "illusion" as the correct answer. 4. glaring staring a) When Aunt Lucy came home, they were sitting in the living room and __staring__ at the television screen. b) Nick stood __glaring__ at him, not offering to help. Explanation: This question requires choosing between two words that describe intense looks directed towards someone or something. "Staring" means to look at someone or something for an extended period without looking away. "Glaring" means to look at someone angrily or harshly. In the first sentence, "staring" is appropriate as it describes the action of sitting and looking at the television screen. In the second sentence, "glaring" is the better choice as it demonstrates Nick's anger or dissatisfaction towards someone. 5. extinct mythical a) People thought the Coelacanth was a(n) __extinct__ species of fish until a fisherman caught one in 1938. b) Annie loves storybooks about dragons, giants, and other __mythical__ creatures. Explanation: For the final question, we need to select two words that describe things that are not real or no longer exist. "Extinct" means that a species has died out and no longer exists. "Mythical" refers to something that is part of mythology or folklore but does not actually exist. The first sentence states that people previously believed the Coelacanth to be extinct until it was found in 1938, making "extinct" the correct choice. In the second sentence, it mentions Annie's love for storybooks about creatures like dragons and giants that are not real, indicating that "mythical" is the appropriate word.
