Recognising a word is a start. Choosing the right word for a particular sentence takes practice. These activities help you notice meaning, grammar and the expressions words belong to.
This example is A2, activity 506. For your FCE preparation, choose B2 vocabulary practice—or move down to revisit the basics and up to stretch yourself.
Explore the vocabulary demo →Read the sentence. What word would you use?
The Beatles already had a drummer before Ringo Starr became part of the band in August 1962. He took Pete Best's place behind the drums. Soon he was making music with John, Paul, and George, and the four men became the group shown in so many famous photographs.
Which word fits the sentence?
Joined means became a member: “She joined a band.” Entered often means went into a place: “She entered the music room.” Ringo became part of the group; the sentence does not describe entering a place, so joined fits here.
02 / TURN MISTAKES INTO PRACTICE
Choose a test and attempt a section at your own pace. Read for meaning and think about how the language fits.
Check your answers and read the explanations. Look for the collocations, grammar patterns and word forms you missed.
Revisit a tricky part or try another test. Use the supporting vocabulary practice to work on your language skills.
