Let’s solve each part step by step.
---
Part 1: Complete the gaps with words from the box
Words available:
genes – eye – equipment – treatment – clever – glass – inherited – kidneys – solve – light
Now, let’s fill in each sentence:
-
Ingenuity: the ability to
solve problems in a
clever way.
→ “Solve” fits because ingenuity is about solving problems. “Clever” describes how you solve them.
-
Genetic engineering: the deliberate changing of
inherited features by altering the structure or position of individual
genes.
→ Genetic engineering changes traits passed down (inherited) by working on genes.
-
Dialysis: medical
treatment that moves waste substances from someone’s blood if his
kidneys are not working.
→ Dialysis is a treatment for when kidneys fail.
-
Laser: an
equipment producing powerful narrow line of
light used to cut hard substances, in medical operations...
→ Laser is a piece of equipment that emits light.
-
Lenses: a thin piece of
glass that makes things seem bigger, smaller, clearer... It is also the part of the
eye that bends light to produce an image.
→ Lenses are made of glass and are also found in the eye.
✔ So Part 1 answers:
- Ingenuity → solve, clever
- Genetic engineering → inherited, genes
- Dialysis → treatment, kidneys
- Laser → equipment, light
- Lenses → glass, eye

Part 2: Match words with their definitions
Left side:
a - pure science
b - set up
c - disposable
d - surgery
Right side:
1 - operation
2 - theoretical science
3 - establish/found
4 - something designed to be thrown after use
Match them:
-
pure science = studying science for knowledge, not application → matches
2 - theoretical science
-
set up = to start or create something → matches
3 - establish/found
-
disposable = meant to be thrown away → matches
4 - something designed to be thrown after use
-
surgery = medical operation → matches
1 - operation
✔ So Part 2 answers:
a → 2
b → 3
c → 4
d → 1

Part 3: Complete the unfinished words
a - Nano te------- : the ability to do things—measure, see, predict and make—on the scale of atoms and molecules.
→ This is
technology → so word is
Nano technology
b - Diagnose: find out what physical/mental pro---- someone has by examining them.
→ “Pro” + “blem” →
problem
c - In V---- Fertili------ (IVF): a process which fertilizes an egg from a woman outside her body.
→ IVF stands for
In Vitro Fertilization
d - to clone: to cr----- an animal/plant in a laboratory that is an exact copy of another using the original's DNA.
→ “Cr” + “eate” →
create
✔ So Part 3 answers:
a - technology
b - problem
c - Vitro, Fertilization
d - create

Final Answer:
Part 1:
- Ingenuity: solve, clever
- Genetic engineering: inherited, genes
- Dialysis: treatment, kidneys
- Laser: equipment, light
- Lenses: glass, eye
Part 2:
a → 2
b → 3
c → 4
d → 1
Part 3:
a - technology
b - problem
c - Vitro, Fertilization
d - create
