Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 4
In these questions you are asked to match the sentence with the picture that it is describing, and then choose the most logical of the two options to complete the sentence. The first sentence reads, “Videogames are (awful/awesome)”.
Step 2
2 of 4
First, we should choose what picture this sentence is describing. The key word in the sentence is “videogames”, so we’ll look for the picture that has something to do with videogames.In picture “C”, we see two kids playing videogames and looking very happy to be doing so. Since this is the only picture containing videogames, it looks like this is the correct picture.
Step 3
3 of 4
Now, we have to choose the option that best completes the sentence. Since the two kids in the photo look overjoyed at the videogames, it stands to reason that the logical answer would be “videogames are awesome”, not awful. Some of these words may be new to you, so looking back at the green vocabulary boxes earlier in this chapter may be helpful.

Exercise 2
Step 1
1 of 4
In these questions you are asked to match the sentence with the picture that it is describing, and then choose the most logical of the two options to complete the sentence. The second sentence reads, “Romance books are _______ (very romantic/not interesting)”.
Step 2
2 of 4
First, let us figure out which picture is being described by this sentence. Since “romance books” are the one object mentioned in the sentence, we’re looking for a picture containing a book. Photo “B” is of a woman reading a book with many hearts above her head, which makes sense considering the subject is specifically “romance books”. This looks to be the perfect choice.
Step 3
3 of 4
Finally, let’s choose the appropriate option to complete the sentence. Since the reader appears to be enjoying the book, and finding it very romantic (which we can tell by the hearts above her head), it’s clear that the answer is “very romantic”.

B., son muy románticos.
Exercise 3
Step 1
1 of 4
In these questions you are asked to match the sentence with the picture that it is describing, and then choose the most logical of the two options to complete the sentence. The third sentence reads, “The music is boring/fun”.
Step 2
2 of 4
Upon looking at our four picture options, we can see that only involves someone listening to music. The headphones and music notes tell us that option “A” is the best option.
Step 3
3 of 4
Finally, we need to choose the adjective that best completes the sentence. We can use clues from the picture to help us in our answer. Judging by the frown on his face and the rain cloud above his head, it doesn’t appear that the boy in the picture thinks the music is fun. Out of the two options, “boring” is the best one.

A., aburrida.
Exercise 4
Step 1
1 of 4
In these questions you are asked to match the sentence with the picture that it is describing, and then choose the most logical of the two options to complete the sentence. The final sentence reads, “Vegetables are _______ (delicious/horrible)”.
Step 2
2 of 4
To find our picture, we’re going to want to locate one containing vegetables. In picture “D”, we see a boy eating what looks to be a plate full of broccoli. Since this is the only photo containing a vegetable, this will be our correct photo.
Step 3
3 of 4
Finally, we need to figure out what word logically completes the sentence. We can use the photo for clues. We can see that the boy is not only eating the vegetables, but seems to be enjoying them. Because of this, we can assume he likes vegetables and finds them delicious, not horrible. “Delicious” will logically complete the sentence.

4 of 4
D., deliciosas.
