Cambridge 16 Explanations [@cambridgematerials]

‘Thin’ is incorrect
as it is the Indian painting that ‘shows a much thinner bird’.
34 The correct answer is ‘head’:
The speaker says, ‘only one example of soft tissue from the 
dodo survives, a dodo head’. 
‘Skeleton’ and ‘bone(s)’ are incorrect
as these are made of hard, 
not soft, tissue. 
35 The correct answer is ‘movement’:
The speaker says that ‘scientists now believe the bird’s 
strong knee joints would have made it capable of movement which was not slow, but actually 
quite fast (rapid)’. 
‘Slow’ and ‘clumsy’ are incorrect
as a noun is needed in the gap; they are 
also the opposite of the answer. 
‘Accounts’ and ‘joints’
are incorrect
as they do not make 
sense in the gap.
36 The correct answer is ‘balance’ or ‘balancing’:
The speaker says that the bird’s wings 
‘were probably employed for balance while going over uneven ground’. 
‘Flight’ and ‘flying’
are incorrect
as the speaker says that ‘the dodo’s small wings wouldn’t have allowed it to 
leave the ground’. 
37 The correct answer is ‘brain’:
The speaker refers to research suggesting ‘the bird’s brain 
was not small, but average in size’. 
‘Skull’ is incorrect
as there is no mention of the size of the 
bird’s skull. 
‘Intelligence’ is incorrect
as this is not measured in terms of physical size.
38 The correct answer is ‘smell’:
The speaker says that ‘one sense which was particularly well-
developed (in the dodo) was that of smell’ and that ‘the dodo may also have been particularly good 
at locating ripe fruit and other food’. 
‘Locating’ is incorrect
as this is not a sense but an ability.
39 The correct answer is ‘rats’: 
The speaker says that ‘rats, which came to land from the 
ships … were a particular danger to the dodos because they consumed their eggs’.
