Here are the four conversations from the last exercise. Type in the boxes to complete them. The first letters of the words are given for you, so don't type them.
It's because the idea is that There's a chance we'll get a pay rise. The sentence includes will (we'll get a pay rise), but the phrase There's a chance modifies it. It means that it's possible, but is not certain, and might and could have that meaning.

I'm afraid the Language Focus videos don't have transcripts. You can ask us about short, specific segments if you'd like to. Please be sure to include the time codes (e.g. 1:45-1:51) if so.
In this task, the letter 'o' represents an unstressed syllable and 'O' represents a stressed syllable. So, for example, in the word 'tiny', the first syllable ('ti') is emphasised more than the second one ('ny'), so it goes in the 'Oo' group.
Does that make more sense now?
Remember that after you try a couple of words, you can press 'Finish' and then 'Show Answers' to see the answers if you find it very difficult.
