Here are the correct answers for the vocabulary questions, with a quick explanation for each to help you understand why they fit.
51. a (time)
*Reasoning:* We say "spend time" doing something. "Minute" would need to be plural ("minutes"), and we don't say "spend clock" or "spend watch."
52. d (photographs)
*Reasoning:* You use a camera to take photographs (or photos). The phrase "black and white photographs" is very common.
53. b (decided)
*Reasoning:* When someone makes a choice about a job, they "decide" to take it. "Thought" would usually be followed by "about," and "began" doesn't fit the context of making a choice as well as "decided."
54. b (traffic)
*Reasoning:* The sentence mentions "a lot of cars." When there are many cars on the street, we call that "traffic."
55. d (weekend)
*Reasoning:* The clue is "Sunday dinner." Sunday is part of the weekend. "Tomorrow" might not be Sunday, and "day" or "hour" doesn't fit the phrase "this \_\_\_\_" as naturally in this context.
56. a (culture)
*Reasoning:* Food and art are major parts of a society's "culture." They aren't really laws or religion specifically.
57. d (guessed)
*Reasoning:* If you don't know the meaning of a word, you might try to "guess" what it means based on context. You wouldn't "tell" or "write" the meaning if you didn't know it.
58. c (introduce)
*Reasoning:* When you bring two people together so they can meet, you "introduce" them. The pattern is "introduce [person A] to [person B]."
59. d (dangerous)
*Reasoning:* The advice is to "be safe." Therefore, you should avoid areas that are "dangerous," especially at night.
60. d (Unfortunately)
*Reasoning:* The sentence says the website *doesn't* accept credit cards. This is usually bad news for a shopper, so "Unfortunately" is the right transition word. "Likely" and "Rarely" don't fit grammatically at the start here, and "Suddenly" doesn't make sense for a payment policy.
