1 kick: "Kicking" refers to the action of swinging the leg forward with force until the foot comes into contact with something. "A kick" is the result of this action. Example: The old lady stopped the robber with a hard kick in the leg. In the broadcast, Enrique says that "Jorge Luis Garbajosa scored on an amazing bicycle kick".
2 scored: The verb "to score" refers to marking a point in a match or competition. In football, one scores by getting the ball past the goalkeeper and into the opposition's net. In the broadcast, Enrique says "Mexican striker Jorge Luis Garbajosa scored on an amazing bicycle kick" meaning that Garbajosa marked a point.
3 crowd: The term "crowd" refers to a large group of people or an audience, especially the spectators of an event. In the broadcast, Enrique says "I'm sure you can hear the crowd behind me". He is referring to the people in the stadium watching the match (who are making a lot of noise). Although the term "crowd" refers to a group of people, it often takes a singular verb (always in American English): The crowd IS going crazy.

Body Language Quiz!
Fill in the blanks below with the appropriate terms. All of the terms were used in the broadcast, but not necessarily in the same context. Remember to conjugate verbs correctly!
This verb means to strike or hit with your foot: "Yesterday Steven a ball straight at the house, and broke a window".
This noun refers to the long lower limbs of the body. Most people have two of these, and they are useful for playing football, dancing, standing up, etc: "People with long are usually fast runners".
These are the extremities of the lower half of the human body. They come into contact with the ground when we walk, and we often cover them with shoes and socks: "Christopher gave a very loud scream when the elephant stood on his left ".
The plural form of the term above is irregular. Type the plural form here: "He has two very big for one very small person."

1 kicked: "Kicked" is the best choice here. The verb "to kick" means to strike with your foot. This is not the same use of the term as in the broadcast, when Enrique says "we're not ready for kick off just yet". In this context, the term "kick off" is the start or beginning of play in a sports match, and the expression "to kick off (an event)" is to "start" or "begin" it!
2 legs: "Legs" is the best choice here. The legs are the lower limbs of the body, used for movement and support among other things! In the broadcast, this term is used in a different way. Enrique says "I'm here to cover the second leg of the Champions League semi-final". In this sporting context, a "leg" is a "round" or one of a series of contests to be played.
3 foot: "Foot" is the best choice here. The "feet" (note the irregular plural form) are found at the very bottom of the legs, and used for kicking things such as footballs and small dogs. In the broadcast, Enrique is reporting on a "football" match.
4 feet: This is correct. "Feet" is the plural form of the term "foot". This is one of the many irregular plural nouns in English. Here is a non exhaustive list of others: Mouse --> mice, tooth --> teeth, sheep --> sheep.

This statement is not true. Bob writes that "the coffee machine does not work" or is "broken", however Horatio kicks his CPU, not the coffee machine!
This is a true statement. Bob writes that he thought his server was "calling him names", which means that to make fun of someone, or "insult" them. To "insult (someone)" means to speak to someone rudely. Bob eventually realizes that it is in fact Philip Cheeter that was calling him names, not his server!
This statement is true. Bob writes: "Server produced a loud beeping sound for over an hour", and "for over an hour" means "for a duration of over an hour" or "lasting more than one hour". A "beep" is an electronic sound.
This statement is not true. Polly "told" Bob to "plug in" his server, however she did not "plug it in" herself! To "plug in (a cable)" means to connect to an electrical power source or to a socket, for example: I plugged in my new TV, and the lights in the whole street went out.
