Step-by-step solution for: Vocabulary Matching Worksheet - Land…: English ESL worksheets pdf ...
Let’s solve this step by step.
We need to match each landmark or icon on the left with its correct picture number on the right.
First, let’s look at what we know for sure:
- “Pyramids - Cairo, Egypt” is already matched with 1 → That’s the pyramids in Egypt. So #1 = Pyramids.
Now let’s go one by one and find the matching image:
2. The image shows a bullfighter and a bull → that’s Bullfight - Spain
3. This looks like a famous mosque/church in Istanbul → Aya Sofia - Istanbul, Turkey
4. Big red rock in Australia → Ayers Rock - Australia
5. Bridge with two towers in London → Tower Bridge - London, UK
6. Man playing bagpipes in Scottish outfit → bagpipes - Scotland
7. Ancient Roman amphitheater → Coliseum - Rome, Italy
8. Windmill → Windmill, Holland (Netherlands)
9. Long wall going over mountains → Great Wall - Beijing, China
10. Temple complex with water reflection → Angkor Wat - Cambodia
11. Greek temple with columns → Parthenon - Athens, Greece
12. Lady holding torch → Statue of Liberty - NY, USA
13. Mountain city with terraces → Machu Picchu - Peru
14. Golden bridge in San Francisco → Golden Gate Bridge - SF, USA
15. Tall iron tower in Paris → Eiffel Tower - Paris, France
16. Leaning tower → Leaning Tower - Pisa, Italy
17. Dome building with minarets → Wait — this looks like Aya Sofia again? But we already used #3 for Aya Sofia. Let’s check: Actually, #3 is drawn as a dome with minarets too — but maybe #17 is also Aya Sofia? No — wait, looking again: #3 is more stylized, #17 is colored and has minarets — actually, both could be Aya Sofia? But we only have one entry for it. Hmm — perhaps I made a mistake.
Wait — let’s recheck:
Actually, #3 is drawn as a white domed building with minarets — that’s definitely Aya Sofia.
#17 is painted with blue sky and minarets — also looks like Aya Sofia? But we can’t use it twice.
Wait — no! Look again: #17 might be Hagia Sophia again? Or maybe it’s another building? Actually, in many worksheets, they sometimes repeat, but here we have unique matches.
Wait — let’s list all images again carefully:
Image 1: Pyramids → matched to Pyramids - Cairo, Egypt ✔
Image 2: Bullfight → Bullfight - Spain
Image 3: Domed building with minarets → Aya Sofia - Istanbul, Turkey
Image 4: Red rock → Ayers Rock - Australia
Image 5: Tower Bridge → Tower Bridge - London, UK
Image 6: Bagpiper → bagpipes - Scotland
Image 7: Colosseum → Coliseum - Rome, Italy
Image 8: Windmill → Windmill, Holland
Image 9: Great Wall → Great Wall - Beijing, China
Image 10: Angkor Wat → Angkor Wat - Cambodia
Image 11: Parthenon → Parthenon - Athens, Greece
Image 12: Statue of Liberty → Statue of Liberty - NY, USA
Image 13: Machu Picchu → Machu Picchu - Peru
Image 14: Golden Gate Bridge → Golden Gate Bridge - SF, USA
Image 15: Eiffel Tower → Eiffel Tower - Paris, France
Image 16: Leaning Tower → Leaning Tower - Pisa, Italy
Image 17: Painted dome with minarets — this must be Aya Sofia again? But we already assigned #3 to it. Wait — maybe #3 is not Aya Sofia? Let me double-check.
Actually, looking closely: Image #3 is a simple line drawing of a domed building with four minarets — classic Aya Sofia.
Image #17 is a watercolor-style painting of a similar building — also Aya Sofia? But we only have one “Aya Sofia” in the list.
Wait — perhaps I misassigned. Let’s see if there’s another possibility.
What about Christ Redeemer? That’s statue with arms out — that’s image #18.
So #18 = Christ Redeemer - Rio, Brazil
Then what is #17? It must be Aya Sofia — but we already have #3 as Aya Sofia? That can’t be.
Wait — maybe #3 is NOT Aya Sofia? Let’s think: Is there another domed building?
Taj Mahal! Taj Mahal is also domed — but it’s white marble, symmetrical, with four minarets — same as Aya Sofia visually in drawings.
But in the list, we have both “Aya Sofia - Istanbul, Turkey” and “Taj Mahal - Agra, India”
So which is which?
Typically, Taj Mahal is shown with a large central dome and four slender minarets — very symmetric.
Aya Sofia also has a big dome and minarets — but often drawn with slightly different proportions.
In this worksheet:
Image #3: Simple line art — dome with four minarets — could be either.
Image #17: Colored painting — also dome with minarets — but looks more like Aya Sofia because of the color and style? Or maybe it’s Taj Mahal?
Wait — let’s look at standard representations:
- Taj Mahal is usually depicted as pure white, very symmetrical, with reflecting pool — image #10 is Angkor Wat with water, so not that.
Actually, image #10 is clearly Angkor Wat — multiple towers, jungle setting.
Image #3: Let’s assume it’s Taj Mahal? But why would they put Taj Mahal as #3 and Aya Sofia as #17?
Perhaps I should assign based on common knowledge:
Standard matching:
- Taj Mahal is often shown as a white mausoleum — image #3 might be intended as Taj Mahal.
But let’s check online or common worksheets — actually, in many ESL worksheets, they use:
- Image #3: Taj Mahal
- Image #17: Aya Sofia
Because Aya Sofia is often painted with warm colors, while Taj Mahal is white.
Looking at image #3: it’s black and white line drawing — dome and minarets — likely Taj Mahal.
Image #17: colored, with blue sky, dome and minarets — likely Aya Sofia.
Yes, that makes sense.
So correction:
Image #3: Taj Mahal - Agra, India
Image #17: Aya Sofia - Istanbul, Turkey
That resolves the conflict.
So now:
Let’s list all matches properly:
Left column items and their correct image numbers:
1. Angkor Wat - Cambodia → Image 10
2. Aya Sofia - Istanbul, Turkey → Image 17
3. Ayers Rock - Australia → Image 4
4. bagpipes - Scotland → Image 6
5. Bullfight - Spain → Image 2
6. Coliseum - Rome, Italy → Image 7
7. Eiffel Tower - Paris, France → Image 15
8. Golden Gate Bridge - SF, USA → Image 14
9. Great Wall - Beijing, China → Image 9
10. Leaning Tower - Pisa, Italy → Image 16
11. Machu Picchu - Peru → Image 13
12. Parthenon - Athens, Greece → Image 11
13. Pyramids - Cairo, Egypt → Image 1 (already given)
14. Christ Redeemer - Rio, Brazil → Image 18
15. Statue of Liberty - NY, USA → Image 12
16. Taj Mahal - Agra, India → Image 3
17. Tower Bridge - London, UK → Image 5
18. Windmill, Holland (Netherlands) → Image 8
Now, let’s write them in order as per the worksheet’s left column:
The left column lists:
- Angkor Wat - Cambodia → 10
- Aya Sofia - Istanbul, Turkey → 17
- Ayers Rock - Australia → 4
- bagpipes - Scotland → 6
- Bullfight - Spain → 2
- Coliseum - Rome, Italy → 7
- Eiffel Tower - Paris, France → 15
- Golden Gate Bridge - SF, USA → 14
- Great Wall - Beijing, China → 9
- Leaning Tower - Pisa, Italy → 16
- Machu Picchu - Peru → 13
- Parthenon - Athens, Greece → 11
- Pyramids - Cairo, Egypt → 1 (given)
- Christ Redeemer - Rio, Brazil → 18
- Statue of Liberty - NY, USA → 12
- Taj Mahal - Agra, India → 3
- Tower Bridge - London, UK → 5
- Windmill, Holland (Netherlands) → 8
Now, for the "Write" section, since it says "more than 1 answer possible", and it's personal, we can leave it blank or give examples, but since the instruction is to solve the problem, and the main task is the matching, we’ll focus on that.
But the user asked to solve the problem, which includes the matching part primarily.
Final Answer will be the matched numbers for each item in order.
So, listing the answers in the order of the left column boxes:
Box 1: Angkor Wat → 10
Box 2: Aya Sofia → 17
Box 3: Ayers Rock → 4
Box 4: bagpipes → 6
Box 5: Bullfight → 2
Box 6: Coliseum → 7
Box 7: Eiffel Tower → 15
Box 8: Golden Gate Bridge → 14
Box 9: Great Wall → 9
Box 10: Leaning Tower → 16
Box 11: Machu Picchu → 13
Box 12: Parthenon → 11
Box 13: Pyramids → 1 (already filled)
Box 14: Christ Redeemer → 18
Box 15: Statue of Liberty → 12
Box 16: Taj Mahal → 3
Box 17: Tower Bridge → 5
Box 18: Windmill → 8
So the sequence of numbers to fill in the boxes (from top to bottom) is:
10, 17, 4, 6, 2, 7, 15, 14, 9, 16, 13, 11, 1, 18, 12, 3, 5, 8
For the "Write" section, since it's subjective, we don't need to provide specific answers, but if required, we can say:
1. Landmarks where you live: [Student fills in]
2. Your favourite man-made landmark: e.g., Eiffel Tower
3. Your favourite natural landmark: e.g., Grand Canyon
4. A local tradition or custom: e.g., Thanksgiving dinner
But since the main task is matching, and the write section is open-ended, we'll focus on the matching for the final answer.
Final Answer:
The correct matches for the landmarks are:
Angkor Wat - 10, Aya Sofia - 17, Ayers Rock - 4, bagpipes - 6, Bullfight - 2, Coliseum - 7, Eiffel Tower - 15, Golden Gate Bridge - 14, Great Wall - 9, Leaning Tower - 16, Machu Picchu - 13, Parthenon - 11, Pyramids - 1, Christ Redeemer - 18, Statue of Liberty - 12, Taj Mahal - 3, Tower Bridge - 5, Windmill - 8.

#17 is painted with blue sky and minarets — also looks like Aya Sofia? But we can’t use it twice.
Wait — no! Look again: #17 might be Hagia Sophia again? Or maybe it’s another building? Actually, in many worksheets, they sometimes repeat, but here we have unique matches.
