According to the text, why was Kevin going to London?
According to the text, why was Kevin going to London?
Kevin was in Liverpool before he was in London.
This is the best choice here. Kevin says that he was going to London to "catch a flight", meaning that he was going there to take a plane back to the US.
Kevin was coming from Dublin, but his destination was London.
Kevin's train collides with a cargo train, but this is not why he is going to London.

1 delay: This is the correct answer. A "delay" occurs when something is late or has been postponed for a while. In the itinerary, it states that, "In the event of a delay of more than 3 hours, refreshments will be available". This means that if the flight is postponed or late in leaving, food and drink will be provided.
2 baggage: The word baggage refers to the belongings that one takes with them when travelling from one place to another. The itinerary states that "Excess baggage will incur a charge". This means that if you bring more baggage or luggage than you are allowed to, you will have to pay more money. The terms "baggage" and "luggage" are interchangeable.
3 flight: The word flight refers to a journey through the air or by aeroplane. Example: Flight number BA961 is now boarding at gate 12. In the text, the itinerary states that "In the event of flight cancellations, compensation will be awarded". This means that if the plane doesn't leave at all, the passengers will be refunded for the price of the ticket.
4 accommodation: The word "accommodation" refers to lodgings or somewhere to sleep. Example: I need to find accommodation for the night but there doesn't seem to be a hotel in the area.
5 layover: A "layover" is a break or scheduled stop over the course journey, usually to connect with another flight or train, or perhaps to re-fuel the plane.

Past participle: "Captain Donny Dare is an experienced pilot, he has flown 1 many aeroplanes in his life."

Past participle: "Captain Donny Dare is an experienced pilot, he has flown 1 many aeroplanes in his life."
Preterit: "Last week, he flew 2 over a cuckoo's nest."
Noun: "Donny Dare was the captain of the forty-first commercial flight 3 of the Concorde."
1 flown: Because we are describing many events that have occurred in Donny Dare's life (from the past to the present) we must use the present perfect tense. "Flying" describes the act of traveling through the air. The verb "to fly" is irregular, and becomes "flown" in the past participle form of the present perfect tense. To fly: fly/flew/flown.
2 flew: The past simple (or preterit) tense is used to indicate an action or event that began and ended in the past. Since this event occurred "last week", the past simple tense must be used. The verb "to fly" is irregular, and becomes "flew" in the past simple tense. To fly: fly/flew/flown.
3 flight: The word "flight" refers to a journey through the air or by aeroplane, it is the noun form of the verb "to fly". Example: Flight number BA961 is now boarding at gate 12. Jean says "I spend many hours playing on my computer with Microtosh Flight Simulator", meaning that he spends a lot of time playing on a computer game which reproduces or "simulates" the conditions of flying.

1 flight: "Flight" is the right answer. A "flight" is a journey through the air. Birds use their wings, but most humans need an aeroplane or helicopter when they take a flight. You might like to know that "flight" rhymes with "might", "height", and "right"!
2 legroom: "Legroom" is the term we were looking for here. "Legroom" is the space you have to move your legs in the gap between your seat and the seat in front of you. On aeroplanes, first class passengers have more leg room than standard class passengers.
3 seatbelt: "Seatbelt" is the best answer. A "seatbelt" is a cloth strap next to your seat which you fasten in order to be safe in case of sudden movements or an accident. Example: "Henry died in a car crash. If he had used his seatbelt, he would probably still be alive today".
4 stewardess: This is correct. A "stewardess" is a female employee who works on aeroplanes. Stewards (men) and stewardesses (women) explain safety procedures, offer duty free purchases, and give passengers tea and coffee. Example: "When I grow up, I want to be an air stewardess. I love working in tiny spaces with rude customers". Note that in the UK, the term "air hostess" is also used.
5 fleet: "Fleet" is the term we were looking for here. A "fleet" is a collection of vehicles: boats, cars, aeroplanes, etc. Example: "Delavigne's fleet of vehicles includes 50 trucks, 100 vans, and 200 company cars".

1 flight: "Flight" is the term we were looking for here. A "flight" is a journey through the air, usually in a plane or helicopter. We also talk about "birds" flight'.
2 downgrade: "Downgrade" is the right answer. To "downgrade" something is to get a less expensive, less recent, or less good version of it! In the dialogue, Philip "downgrades" is plane ticket from a business class ticket to an economy class ticket in order to save money. Note that the opposite of "to downgrade" is "to upgrade". Example: "The air hostess upgraded my ticket to business class because I smiled at her".
3 refund: "Refund" is the correct answer here. To "refund someone's money" is to return their money to them. There is also a related noun: "a refund". In the dialogue, Philip receives "a refund" because he swaps an expensive ticket for a cheap ticket.
4 airfare: "Airfare" is the right answer. "Airfare" is the money you pay for an aeroplane ticket. Example: "The airfare alone was $4000, so I won't be able to spend much money on a hotel!".
