A2 Key for Schools (KET) Reading & Writing Part 5 Test – Digital Invites: Sharing Screens & Media Experiences 2

25 to

– Why it's right: We always use to after the verb want when it is followed by another action (want to do something).

– Why not 'for': Students often confuse to and for, but we never say want for film.

26 the

– Why it's right: We use the before superlative adjectives like best.

– Why not 'a': We cannot use a because there is only one best song in this context, not many.

27 than

– Why it's right: We use than when we are comparing two things or people (better than me).

– Why not 'then': Then refers to time and sounds similar when spoken, but it is never used for comparing things.

28 at

– Why it's right: We always use the preposition at when we talk about a specific clock time, like two o'clock.

– Why not 'on': We use on for days of the week (like on Saturday), but not for the exact time.

29 let

– Why it's right: Let me know is a very common fixed phrase in English which simply means "tell me".

– Why not 'make': You cannot say make me know; the correct verb for this expression is always let.

30 for

– Why it's right: We use for when someone receives something or benefits from an action (like buying something for someone).

– Why not 'to': We don't say buy some pizza to us because to is usually used to talk about direction or movement.

25 going

– Why it's right: We use "going" to complete the future time structure "be going to" (+ verb) when talking about plans we have already made.

– Why not 'will': A common mistake is writing "is will", but we never use "will" together with the verb "to be" (is) and "to".

26 because

– Why it's right: We use the conjunction "because" to introduce the reason for an action or feeling. Here, it explains why Leo wants to interview Ben.

– Why not 'so': "So" introduces a result, not a reason. You would use it the other way around: "You are the best player, so I want to interview you."

27 a

– Why it's right: We use the indefinite article "a" before a singular, countable noun phrase (special guest) when we introduce it for the first time.

– Why not 'the': We only use "the" if both people already know exactly which specific guest is being talked about, but this is a new invitation.

28 about

– Why it's right: When we discuss a specific topic, we always use the preposition "about" to complete the phrase "talk about [something]".

– Why not 'for': You might think of "talk for", but that describes how much time you spend speaking (e.g., "talk for an hour"), not the topic.

29 are

– Why it's right: We need the auxiliary verb "are" to match the plural pronoun "We" and complete the structure "we are going to".

– Why not 'is': We cannot say "We is" because "is" is only used with singular subjects like he, she, or it.

30 me

– Why it's right: We use the object pronoun "me" because it receives the action of the verb "let". "Let me know" is a very common phrase to ask for a reply.

– Why not 'I': We cannot say "let I know" because "I" is a subject pronoun and is only used at the beginning of a clause, not right after a verb.

25 to

– Why it's right: After the verb want, we use to before the next action (want to do something).

– Why not 'for': We cannot say want for play in English; for is not used before a base verb like this.

26 ever

– Why it's right: We use ever with the present perfect and superlative adjectives (like the biggest) to mean "at any time in my life".

– Why not 'never': Using never would mean she hasn't built it at all, which doesn't make sense because she is building it right now!

27 the

– Why it's right: We always use the in the fixed phrase in the middle of.

– Why not 'a': You cannot say in a middle because a place or object only has one exact middle, not many.

28 than

– Why it's right: We use than when we are comparing two people or things (better than me).

– Why not 'then': Then is used to talk about time (meaning "next" or "at that time"), not for comparing things.

29 me

– Why it's right: Let me know is a very common fixed phrase in English which simply means "tell me".

– Why not 'I': After the verb let, we must always use an object pronoun like me, never a subject pronoun like I.

30 for

– Why it's right: We use for when we talk about a length or duration of time, such as two hours.

– Why not 'since': We use since to talk about a specific starting point (like since 2 o'clock), not for an amount of time.
