Here's the transcript for the recording from last week's lesson. Listen again, and fill the gaps that I've left.
Fill each gap with one word only.
Students, when they’re applying, really need to reflect, pause for a moment and think what it is that _____ bringing to the course, and _____ they want to go with it. We want to see evidence that they do have some experience of thinking of telling stories visually. We don’t need to see a great deal; they shouldn’t panic about quantity, but they should reflect on what they have got that can show _____ talent and _____ creative ability. Ideally we would like to see moving image work, but if an applicant has not had the chance to do that, then _____ welcome to show us drawings, photographs, animations - any work that is thinking about telling stories over time.

For me it is really hard to catch the words because of her accent. Even after listening 04 times I could catch only 03 Words. It seems that I may need to do lot of hard works on listening. :(

I do think it should be "they are" for 1 and 5. However, the requirement is "ONE WORD ONLY for each blank".

Dear Simon,
My IELTS teacher once told us not to mention complex subjects and show off knowledge in speaking test. I'm not sure what could be considered "complex subjects" and "show off knowledge". I tend to talk about my major with pretty much big words and terms as example to expand my answer. I wonder if they would be seen as "show off knowledge". And what do you think about the advice?
Thank you very much.

People who write they are, they should not forget that on the instructions is written "one word only", however if the answer is "they are" could we write they're because of "one word" instruction? Thank you in advance.
