What this part tests

This part is tested with Table Completion (Q1–7). Each section below gives the strategy for that question type, the answers, and the sentence that proves them.

Questions 1–7: Table Completion

Strategy: Work row by row. The row label tells you where to look; the column heading tells you what kind of word you need.

Q1secondary
“Yes, that’s right, the secondary school.”

The venue is confirmed as 'the secondary school', so secondary is the adjective describing the school type.

Q2flute
“Yes the flute.”

Asked which instrument, the answer is 'Yes the flute', so flute names the instrument.

Q3cinema
“All the ducks will be launched into the river at the back of the cinema”

The ducks are 'launched into the river at the back of the cinema', so cinema names the starting point.

Q4concert
“Yes, the first duck in each race to arrive at the finishing line wins its owner free tickets for the concert on the last night of the festival.”

Winners get 'free tickets for the concert on the last night', so concert names the prize event.

Q5market
“They’re on sale at a stall in the market”

Tickets are sold 'at a stall in the market', so market is the place named, one word.

Q6Bythwaite
“Well, admission is free, and the show is being held in Bythwaite Hall.”

The show is 'being held in Bythwaite Hall', so the venue name is Bythwaite, written with a capital letter.

Q7actor
“The prizes are being given by a famous actor, Kevin Shapless”

Prizes are presented by 'a famous actor, Kevin Shapless', so actor names his profession.
