For Questions 1-8, read the text below and use the word given in capitals to form a word that fits in the gap.

Teamwork Minds

Psychologists say that successful teams are not formed by chance. In many workplaces, group (0) DYNAMICS (DYNAMIC) can strongly affect how people behave and perform. One important factor is trust: without it, members may become (1) .......... (COOPERATE) and avoid sharing ideas. Another key issue is communication. A lack of clear goals often leads to (2) .......... (CONFUSE), which can make people feel stressed and less willing to contribute. In contrast, a supportive environment increases (3) .......... (MOTIVATE) and helps individuals stay focused during difficult tasks. Researchers have also found that teams work better when there is a sense of (4) .......... (BELONG) among members. This reduces the risk of (5) .......... (ISOLATE) and encourages people to solve problems together. However, teamwork is not always easy. Strong personalities can create (6) .......... (TENSE), especially when people are under pressure. For this reason, managers need to act (7) .......... (SENSE) and recognise signs of conflict early. With the right leadership, even very different people can work together (8) .......... (EFFECT) and achieve impressive results.

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.
