What this part tests

This part is tested with Note Completion (Q31–40). Each section below gives the strategy for that question type, the answers, and the sentence that proves them.

Questions 31–40: Note Completion

Strategy: Predict the word class from the note, find the paraphrase of the note's keyword in the transcript, then copy the answer exactly within the word limit.

Q31Irrigation
“the programme focused primarily on making use of existing water resources from the Limpopo River by setting up systems of irrigation”

The gap needs the noun after 'systems of', and the programme set up 'systems of irrigation' using Limpopo River water.

Q32women
“women formed the majority of the workforce.”

The workforce was mostly female: 'women formed the majority of the workforce', so the plural noun 'women' fits.

Q33wirealso accepted: wires
“The community was responsible for creating these fences, but the programme provided the necessary wire for making them.”

The programme supplied 'the necessary wire' for fences the community built, so 'wire' is the material required.

Q34seedalso accepted: seeds
“the programme provided the necessary seeds for this.”

For planting, the programme 'provided the necessary seeds', so the gap takes seed or seeds as the supplied material.

Q35posts
“they also provided and put up the posts that supported the fences around the fields.”

The programme 'put up the posts that supported the fences', so the plural noun 'posts' fills the gap.

Q36transport
“as the farmers did not have access to transport”

The gap follows 'access to', and the transcript says the farmers 'did not have access to transport'.

Q37preservation
“the farmers needed to learn techniques for its preservation.”

The farmers needed 'techniques for its preservation', so the noun 'preservation' names what they had to learn.

Q38fishalso accepted: fishes
“off areas and to fill these with water and use them for breeding fish”

The enclosed water areas were used 'for breeding fish', so the singular noun 'fish' fits the gap.

Q39bees
“They decided to try setting up colonies of bees”

The farmers tried 'setting up colonies of bees', so 'bees' is the plural noun needed.

Q40design
“However, it’s important to set realistic timelines for each phase of the programme, especially for its design”

Realistic timelines are needed 'especially for its design', so the noun 'design' completes the phase being planned.
