WORD FORMATION PRACTICE.

Task 1

Read the text below. Use the word given in capitals at the end of each line to form a word that fits in the space in the same line.

The Perfect Friend

Because (1)…is one of the few kinds of relationship we have        FRIEND

control over, it is an (2)…area of research for sociologists.                    INTEREST

Although we can’t usually choose our (3)…, bosses or                    RELATE

(4)…,we can choose our friends. But how do we choose                    TEACH

them, and why is it that we find some people’s (5)…more                    PERSON

(6)…than others? We are all looking for similar qualities in        ATTRACT

our friends, such as (7)…, a good sense of humour and                     HONEST

(8)… . However, what each of us means by a ‘good sense of        KIND

humour’, for example, is  (9)… . We are all unique, and so the        DIFFER

perfect friend for one person may seem a little (10)…to                    BORE

someone else!        

Task 2

Read the text below. Use the word given in capitals at the end of each line to form a word that fits in the space in the same line.

Jerry

Jerry is a bully and has one of the most (1)…. personalities        ATTRACT

his parents or teachers tell him to do, he’s (3)….(he’s always        HONEST

telling lies), and I try to keep my (4)…from him as much as        DISTANT

possible. (5)… , he’s my brother, so that’s not always easy!        FORTUNE

It’s strange having a (6)…who everyone dislikes. It makes                    RELATE

me feel (7)…at school, because sometimes people think I                    COMFORT

must be just like him, but in fact I’m completely (8)… . I                    DIFFER

hope as Jerry grows older he’ll realise how important (9)…        FRIEND

is and he’ll stop being so (10)…to everyone. One thing is                    KIND

sure – he’ll never get a girlfriend until he changes his ways!        

Task 3.

The Modern Kitchen

Thomas Edison knew his new (1)…, the light bulb, would be        INVENT

(2)…, but it’s unlikely that he realised quite how much the                    REVOLUTION

kitchen  is overflowing with electrical (4)…, from the kettle        APPLY

to the cooker to the (5)…. It’s hard to imagine how we would         DISH

survive without all this (6)… For a busy parent whose kids         EQUIP

are hungry, the simplest  (7)…these days is to take some                    SOLVE

(8)…food out of the freezer and pop it in the microwave.                    FREEZE

That’s rather an (9)… on having to cook a meal from scratch.        IMPROVE

sense of (4)…. If you are one of the lucky ones, you might             ACHIEVE

even come up with something that is (5)…to large numbers     BENEFIT

of people around the world.  At the same time, though, it’s        

important to realise that success in science demands (6)…              DEDICATE

and a lot of hard work. Behind every great (7)…lie long hour   DISCOVER

of work in the laboratory, not to mention years of (8)…              EXPENSE

education. It’s a big (9)…of time and money, but the chance    INVEST

to be involved in the latest  (10)…makes it worthwhile.              DEVELOP

Task 5  

It’s Getting Hotter!

melting of the polar ice. (4)…disagree, though about whether        SCIENCE

this (5)…change is being caused by human actions or whether         ENVIRONMENT

it has other (6)….causes. One explanation is the greenhouse        NATURE

effect. This is where (7)…in the atmosphere traps the sun’s        POLLUTE

rays, like a giant greenhouse. While nobody claims that releasing        

chemicals into the atmosphere can be (8)…, not everyone is        HARM

convinced that all the temperature change is due to (9)…activity.        INDUSTRY

It’s an important question, because a (10)…can only be found         SOLVE
