8th grade w2 - vocabulary worksheet - Free Printable

Let’s go through each sentence one by one and pick the best word from the list to fill in the blank.

The words we can choose from are:
- booking
- partner
- answer
- wrong
- holiday
- enough
- downstairs
- meal
- highlight
- underline

---

1. My mum called to check the ________ of the hotel was done.

→ She’s checking if something related to the hotel is finished. “Booking” makes sense — like reserving a room.
✔ booking

---

2. You’ll have to go to the ________ bathroom

→ This suggests location. “Downstairs” fits — it tells you where the bathroom is.
✔ downstairs

---

3. I don’t have ________ money to buy that toy.

→ We’re talking about having sufficient money. “Enough” is the right word here.
✔ enough

---

4. For homework, I have to ________ the most important of this reading.

→ In school, when you mark key parts, you often “highlight” them (with yellow marker).
✔ highlight

*(Note: “underline” also means marking text, but sentence #6 specifically says “with yellow, not green” — which points to highlighting, since underlining is usually with pen/pencil, not color-coded markers. So we save “underline” for #6.)*

Wait — let’s double-check #6 first.

---

6. The teacher told us that we have to ________ the words with yellow, not green.

→ Yellow = highlighter. Green might be another color used for something else. So yes, “highlight” goes here? But wait — sentence #4 said “the most important of this reading” — that also sounds like highlighting.

Hold on — maybe we need to swap?

Actually, let’s look again:

Sentence #4: “I have to ________ the most important [parts] of this reading.” → Could be “highlight” OR “underline”

Sentence #6: “________ the words with yellow, not green.” → Definitely “highlight”, because you use colored markers to highlight. Underlining is usually black/blue ink.

So perhaps #4 should be “underline”? But “underline” doesn’t fit as well with “most important” unless specified.

Wait — actually, both could work, but let’s see what’s left.

Maybe #4 is “highlight” and #6 is “underline”? No — #6 says “with yellow” — that’s definitely highlighting.

But then what about #4? Maybe “underline” isn’t even needed there.

Alternative idea: Maybe #4 is “answer”? No — “answer the most important” doesn’t make sense.

Or “partner”? No.

Perhaps #4 is “highlight” and #6 is... wait, no — #6 must be “highlight”.

Let me reassign:

Actually, looking at common usage:

In schools, teachers say:
- “Highlight the key ideas” → using yellow marker
- “Underline the vocabulary words” → using pencil or pen

But sentence #6 says “with yellow, not green” — so it’s definitely about coloring/highlighting.

Then what about #4? “I have to ________ the most important of this reading.”

If we use “highlight” for #6, then #4 needs another verb.

What about “answer”? Doesn’t fit.

“Partner”? No.

“Wrong”? No.

“Meal”? No.

“Holiday”? No.

“Booking”? Already used.

“Downstairs”? Used.

“Enough”? Used.

Leftovers after assigning obvious ones:

We have assigned:
1. booking
2. downstairs
3. enough
6. ???
7. holiday (probably)
8. wrong
9. meal
10. answer? or partner?

Wait — let’s do all sentences systematically.

---

Let’s list all 10 sentences and try to match logically.

1. My mum called to check the ________ of the hotel was done.
→ Booking ✔

2. You’ll have to go to the ________ bathroom
→ Downstairs ✔

3. I don’t have ________ money to buy that toy.
→ Enough ✔

4. For homework, I have to ________ the most important of this reading.
→ Likely “highlight” — but let’s hold.

5. I’m your ________ for this project.
→ Partner ✔ (common phrase: “I’m your partner”)

6. The teacher told us that we have to ________ the words with yellow, not green.
→ Highlight ✔ (yellow = highlighter)

7. The next ________ is the Independence Day.
→ Holiday ✔ (Independence Day is a public holiday)

8. You’re ________! This is my notebook.
→ Wrong ✔ (“You’re wrong!” = correction)

9. My mum cooked a really delicious ________.
→ Meal ✔

10. We must ________ with the truth.
→ Answer? Or “be honest”? But “answer with the truth” is okay. Wait — “answer” is a verb. “We must answer with the truth” — possible.

But is there better? “Partner”? No. “Wrong”? No.

Actually, “answer” fits: “We must answer with the truth.” Like responding honestly.

But let’s check if “underline” has been used yet.

We haven’t used “underline” anywhere!

And sentence #4: “I have to ________ the most important of this reading.”

That could be “underline” — many teachers ask students to underline key points.

But sentence #6 says “with yellow” — which implies highlighting, not underlining.

So perhaps:

#4 → underline
#6 → highlight

Yes! That makes more sense.

Because:

- Underline = draw line under text (often with pencil/pen)
- Highlight = use colored marker (yellow, green, etc.)

So:

4. For homework, I have to _underline_ the most important of this reading. → Makes sense.

6. The teacher told us that we have to _highlight_ the words with yellow, not green. → Perfect.

Then what about #10?

“We must ________ with the truth.”

Options left: “answer”

Yes — “We must answer with the truth.” It’s acceptable.

Is there any other possibility? “Partner”? No. “Wrong”? No.

So “answer” works.

Now let’s compile:

1. booking
2. downstairs
3. enough
4. underline
5. partner
6. highlight
7. holiday
8. wrong
9. meal
10. answer

Check if all words are used:

List: booking, partner, answer, wrong, holiday, enough, downstairs, meal, highlight, underline → All 10 used. Perfect.

Final verification:

1. My mum called to check the booking of the hotel was done. ✔️
2. You’ll have to go to the downstairs bathroom ✔️
3. I don’t have enough money to buy that toy. ✔️
4. For homework, I have to underline the most important of this reading. ✔️
5. I’m your partner for this project. ✔️

7. The next holiday is the Independence Day. ✔️
8. You’re wrong! This is my notebook. ✔️

10. We must answer with the truth. ✔️

All fit naturally.
