Environmental Education

Many people agree that (0) ESSENTIAL (ESSENCE) changes in our behaviour are needed if we want to protect the planet. However, real progress is unlikely without environmental education, because it helps people understand not only what is happening, but also what they can do about it. In schools, lessons about climate and nature can encourage (1) .......... (RESPONSIBLE) decision-making, from saving energy to reducing waste. Students also learn to question (2) .......... (INFORM) they see online and to check sources before sharing dramatic headlines. This kind of training builds (3) .......... (AWARE) of how everyday choices affect ecosystems. Outside the classroom, community projects can increase public (4) .......... (INVOLVE) in local issues, such as cleaning rivers or protecting green spaces. When people take part, they often feel a stronger sense of (5) .......... (COMMIT) and are more likely to keep helping in the long term. Environmental education is also important for the economy. Many new jobs require (6) .......... (SPECIAL) knowledge, for example in renewable energy or sustainable farming. Finally, it can reduce (7) .......... (EQUAL) by giving everyone access to practical skills and clear advice, rather than leaving environmental action to the (8) .......... (PRIVILEGE) few.

What to do

For each gap you get one word in capitals which you have to change so the grammar and meaning fit in the sentence. Here you have to show how well you know word families and if you can change words by using prefixes and suffixes.

You need to read the whole text to get the writer’s opinion on the topic. That’s because sometimes a negative prefix will be required. There is usually at least one word requiring a negative prefix, so look out for these.

In the exam always write something. You never know, you might be lucky even if you are not sure of the answer!

Strategy

  1. Read the title and the whole text so that you understand what it is about.
  2. Look at each sentence in detail.
  3. Think about what kind of word you need and whether you need a negative prefix or a suffix.
  4. Read the sentence again to check whether you need a plural form.
  5. Check your spelling, as it must be correct.
