Question 6: Which word naturally goes with the word 'worker' to describe someone doing seasonal farm jobs? Question 6 options Check answer
Migrant naturally collocates with 'worker' to form 'migrant worker,' which refers to someone who moves temporarily to do seasonal work such as harvesting crops. Immigrant worker, refugee worker, and expat worker are not standard collocations for this context.

Question 7: A: 'Why does the farm need so many workers in autumn?' B: 'They hire ___ workers who come every year just for the harvest season.' Question 7 options Check answer
Migrant is correct because the workers come only for the harvest season, which means their stay is temporary and seasonal. This is the defining feature of a migrant. Immigrant implies permanent settlement, refugee implies fleeing danger, and foreign simply means from another country without specifying movement type.

Question 8: He applied for a permanent residency permit and became a citizen five years later. Which word correctly describes him? Question 8 options Check answer
Immigrant is the correct word because he went through a legal process to live in a new country permanently and eventually became a citizen. Migrant refers to temporary movement, expat usually means a professional living abroad temporarily, and visitor means a short-term stay.

Question 9: Put the words/chunks in the correct order to make a natural English phrase: Question 9 options every ▲ ▼ migrant workers ▲ ▼ harvest season ▲ ▼ arrive ▲ ▼ Drag items or use arrows to arrange them in the correct order.
Check answer
The correct order is 'migrant workers arrive every harvest season' because 'migrant workers' is the subject noun phrase, 'arrive' is the verb, and 'every harvest season' is the time expression at the end.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q10 15
Question 10: The government launched new support programs to help the ___ community settle into their new country. Question 10 options Check answer
Immigrant is the most natural and precise word here because settling into a new country refers to permanent relocation, which is what immigrants do. Migrant implies temporary stays, refugee implies fleeing, and foreign is an adjective that does not collocate as naturally with 'community' in this context.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q11 15
Question 11: A government official is writing a formal report about people who move to the country permanently. Which word should they use? Question 11 options Check answer
Immigrant is the appropriate formal term in official and legal contexts for someone who permanently relocates to another country. Migrant is broader and less precise for permanent settlement. Newcomer is informal, and mover is too general and informal for an official report.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q12 15
Question 12: Which form correctly completes this sentence? 'She went through the ___ process to get her visa and residency permit.' Question 12 options Check answer
Immigration is the correct noun form here because it refers to the legal process of moving to and settling in a new country. Immigrate is a verb, immigrant is a noun referring to a person, and immigrated is a past tense verb — none of these fit the blank after 'the' in a noun position modifying 'process.'
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q13 15
Question 13: The phrase 'immigrant worker' is the most natural collocation for someone who does seasonal farm work. Question 13 options Check answer
False because 'migrant worker' is the natural and standard collocation for someone who moves temporarily to do seasonal work. 'Immigrant worker' is not wrong grammatically, but 'migrant worker' is the established collocation for temporary, seasonal labor.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q14 15
Question 14: The farm needs workers only during the three-month picking season. Which word most precisely describes these workers? Question 14 options Check answer
Migrant is the most precise word because it describes someone who moves temporarily, often for seasonal work. Immigrant suggests permanent relocation, refugee suggests fleeing danger, and expat suggests a professional sent abroad by an employer — none fit the temporary seasonal work context.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q15 15
Question 15: Read this sentence: 'Immigrant stories enrich our history.' What does the word IMMIGRANT mean HERE? Question 15 options Check answer
Immigrant here means a person who has come to a country to live there permanently. The sentence talks about their stories becoming part of the country's history, which implies long-term settlement and integration, not temporary movement.
