The correct answers are take notes, do homework, and attend a lecture.
In English, we say "take notes" (record information), "do homework" (complete assignments), and "attend a lecture" (be present at). We don't say "make homework," "assist a lecture," or "make an assignment" in these contexts.
Verb
A verb is a word that expresses an action, a state, or an occurrence — the engine of every English sentence. Most verbs have five forms: base (go), -s form (goes), past tense (went), past participle (gone), and -ing form (going). The verb be is the major exception with eight forms; modal verbs like can and must have fewer.
Verbs carry tense (when), aspect (how it unfolds), mood (the speaker's attitude), and voice (active vs passive). Mastering them is foundational — virtually every other grammar topic depends on getting verbs right.
Noun
A noun is a word that names something — a person, place, thing, idea, action, or quality. Nouns are one of the open word classes in English, alongside verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. They typically appear as the subject or object of a clause, after articles or adjectives, and as the head of a noun phrase.
Recognising nouns reliably is the foundation for nearly every other grammar topic — agreement, articles, plurals, possessives, and prepositions all depend on it. Get this right and the rest of English grammar starts to fall into place.
Collocations
Collocations are combinations of words that habitually occur together in a fixed order — make a decision (not do a decision), strong coffee (not powerful coffee), heavy rain (not thick rain). The grammar would allow either pairing, but native speakers consistently pick one and reject the other. Common patterns include verb + noun, adjective + noun, adverb + adjective, and adverb + verb.
Learning vocabulary as collocations rather than isolated words is the single fastest way to sound natural in English. It's the difference between I made a big mistake and I did a big mistake — small, but immediately noticeable.
Vocabulary for B1/Intermediate
The B1 vocabulary tag covers vocabulary for intermediate English — roughly 2,500–4,000 words. Beyond the routine A2 topics, B1 introduces opinions and abstract ideas (believe, expect, worry, imagine), more refined emotions, news and current-affairs vocabulary, and a much wider range of phrasal verbs and collocations.
B1 is the level where you can start expressing yourself rather than just describing your routine. Vocabulary work here is what gets you off scripted topics and into real conversations.
B1 | Intermediate
B1 is the intermediate level in the CEFR framework — the point where you stop relying on memorised phrases and start handling everyday English independently. At B1 you can describe experiences, explain opinions, and follow most clear standard speech on familiar topics like work, travel, and hobbies.
Grammatically, B1 means combining tenses with precision, building complex sentences, and starting to use passive voice, modal verbs for necessity and possibility, and verb patterns (gerund vs. infinitive). Knowing your level shapes what you study next: pushing too far ahead frustrates you; staying below your level wastes time.
Difficulty: Easy
The Easy difficulty tag marks questions and challenges aimed at beginners — typically A1 or early A2 level. Expect single-rule focus, short sentences, common everyday vocabulary, and one clear correct answer. Distractors usually rule themselves out quickly.
Filter by Easy when you're rebuilding fundamentals, warming up before harder material, or testing whether you've truly internalised a basic rule before moving on. Easy doesn't mean trivial — it means the rule itself is unambiguous and the context doesn't pile on extra complications.
