In this part of the exam you are given one continuous text, and you have to change the word given at the end of the line so that it fits into the text by meaning and part of speech. Often it can be by adding a prefix or suffix.
* Read the whole text first.
* After reading the text, start the task, and go with your instinct.
* If you can't think of anything, think about what kind of word the gap needs: noun, adjective, adverb, etc.
* If you are still uncertain of the word, try adding a prefix or suffix until you think it sounds right. Often you will suddenly realise you were familiar with it, after all.
* You don't lose points for wrong answers, so make sure you answer every question.
* If you have time, read the whole text again with your answers completed to make sure it sounds correct.
