1 clay: This is the correct answer. "Clay" is a soft material (a type of earth) which can be baked and is used to make pottery, china, bricks, etc. One of the famous scenes in the film Ghost has Demi Moore making an erotic clay model.
1 glass: This is incorrect. Glass is brittle transparent material and doesn't match this description.
1 concrete: This is incorrect. "Concrete" is a building material made of cement, sand, stone and water. It hardens when mixed with water, not in an oven.
1 steel: This is incorrect. "Steel" is a metal alloy made from iron and carbon (with a smaller amount of other elements).
1 plaster: This is incorrect. "Plaster" becomes hard when mixed with water.
2 concrete: This is the correct answer. "Concrete" is a very hard and durable material that is often used for large construction projects. It is generally a mixture of sand, cement and water.
2 steel: This is incorrect. "Steel" is a metal alloy made from iron and carbon (with a smaller amount of other elements).
2 clay: This is incorrect. Clay is a soft material which is quite fragile, even when heated.
2 glass: This is incorrect. Glass is brittle transparent material and doesn't match this description.
2 plaster: This is incorrect. "Plaster" is not made with cement.
3 plaster: This is the correct answer. "Plaster" is a powder which when mixed with water becomes hard. It is often used in construction to "coat" walls to make their surface smooth. It is also used in medicine to make a support for broken bones. It is also popular with artists to make casts and sculptures.
3 glass: This is incorrect. Glass is brittle transparent material and doesn't match this description.
3 clay: This is incorrect. Clay is a soft material which is not usually used in medicine.
3 steel: This is incorrect. "Steel" is a metal alloy made from iron and carbon (with a smaller amount of other elements).
3 concrete: This is incorrect. "Concrete" is a building material made of cement, sand, stone and water. Although it can be smooth, it is too heavy to support broken bones in medicine.
4 steel: This is the correct answer. "Steel" is a metal alloy of iron and carbon. It is hard, strong and durable. In the audio, Lindsay says that the atrium has a "glass and steel roof", meaning that the top of the building is supported by this metal and has transparent glass to give light.
4 clay: This is incorrect. Clay is a soft material and not a metal.
4 glass: This is incorrect. Glass is brittle transparent material and doesn't match this description.
4 concrete: This is incorrect. "Concrete" is a building material made of cement, sand, stone and water.
4 plaster: This is incorrect. "Plaster" is not a metal.
