Exercise 2
Step 1
1 of 8
Objective.
The objective of this exercise is to practise using Spanish vocabulary.
Step 2
2 of 8
Method.
In this exercise, you are given a text with blanks. The missing words are in the box above the text. You will read the text twice to understand it and then go ahead and complete the text. Below, you will find an analysis to help you solve the task.
Step 3
3 of 8
Analysis.

In the first sentence, Gustavo says that he likes to “comer _ en el desayuno”. For the first blank, you would be looking for an edible noun, to put it that way. From the seven options, only “cereal” fits into the context.

Step 4
4 of 8
Next, Carla says what she likes to eat and adds that she likes to “beber _”. In this case, you would be looking for a drinkable noun. You see that this is either “leche” or “jugo”. Have a look at the following sentence, where Carla says the drink is “rica”. You will notice that she uses the feminine grammatical gender, which eliminates “jugo” and leads you to use “leche”.
Step 5
5 of 8
Gustavo then says how he does not like milk and adds: “Es _.”. He describes it with an adjective, which means you will choose from “nutritivas” and “horrible”. Since “milk” is uncountable, and thus in singular, you would choose “horrible”.

He continues saying that “cuando _”, he prefers to drink “_ de naranja”. “When” is usually followed by a verb, which points at two options: “tengo ganas de” or “tengo sed”. Logically, he would be talking about being thirsty, which in Spanish you express with the verb “tener”: “tengo sed”. The latter refers to a drinkable noun, and “jugo” is the only such noun left.

Step 6
6 of 8
Then, Carla says that she eats grapes every day. She describes them with an adjective, and the only one remaining is “nutritivas”. Note how it agrees in grammatical gender and number with the noun it describes (uvas).
Step 7
7 of 8
Finally, Gustavo says that “[a]hora _ comer una hamburguesa”. What he means is that he is feeling like having a hamburger, which in Spanish you express with the verb “tener”: “tengo ganas de”.

4. tengo sed
5. jugo
