Complete the second sentence so that it means the same as the first. Use NO MORE THAN THREE words.Understanding English on the radio is not easy.It’s difficult ________ English on the radio.

Explanation
The completion of the second sentence with "to understand" maintains the same meaning as the first sentence, "Understanding English on the radio is not easy." The phrase "it's difficult" indicates the challenge or difficulty in comprehending English on the radio, which is further emphasized by the verb "to understand."

Complete the second sentence so that it means the same as the first. Use NO MORE THAN THREE words.Before I watched the film, I finished my homework.When I ________ my homework, I watched the film.

Explanation
The correct answer is "had finished". This is because the sentence is in the past tense and the word "before" indicates that the action of finishing the homework happened before the action of watching the film. Therefore, to maintain the same meaning in the second sentence, we need to use the past perfect tense "had finished" to show that the action of finishing the homework was completed before the action of watching the film.

8.

Complete the second sentence so that it means the same as the first. Use NO MORE THAN THREE words.There are a lot of things we disagree on.There are a lot of things we don’t ________ eye on.

Explanation
The original sentence states that there are many things that we disagree on. The correct answer, "see eye to," means the same thing as "disagree." Therefore, the completed sentence would mean that there are many things we don't see eye to eye on, which implies that we have disagreements about those things.
