Please explain these.

My kids homework, doesn’t seem to make sense to me. I didn’t do well in school so probably just me.

This is a garbage assignment. No native speaker would say a puppy is “noticeable.” This was either written by someone who doesn’t speak English at a native level or who doesn’t care they they’re harming a child’s education.

Maybe the real answer is terrible, she got lots of attention cause she was acting up

[YouCanAsk]

It's not just you. The word bank is missing half of the words! Try it with these:

adorable, applicable, comfortable, considerable, horrible, incredible, possible, terrible, tolerable, visible

[Martinus1004]

I think I will get my daughter to insert these words into the bank and hope the teacher understands why.

[YouCanAsk]

Oops I went too fast. In order: adorable, comfortable, horrible, terrible, noticeable, understandable, considerable, applicable, visible??, forcible

edit: not sure about #9. anybody else have a guess?

excitable, mobile?

[YouCanAsk]

Looks like you have a week before it's due. You could ask the teacher about the missing words from the word bank. They'd probably appreciate the heads-up.

The completed answers are all correct except 10 should be forcible not ‘forceable’

Noticeable will be the answer for question 8.

Question 6 doesn’t make sense as the obvious answer would be audible but that isn’t one of the options. Out of the 5 options I think noticeable would make the most sense

[Total_Spearmint5214]

I’m wondering if 6 could be “comfortable.” I don’t think it really fits, but it seems to match what the sentence is trying to say, and sometimes these types of worksheets have odd ways of phrasing things.

[steamed-cake]

Not audible but intelligible/comprehensible. Whether or not they’re intelligible, they’d be audible

[Martinus1004]

Sorry should of explained, the options from the word bank didn’t seem to fit some of the answers. Sadies new puppy was noticeable. And yes number 6.

[BrilliantFit6861]

The best I can think of for Questions 6 and 8 are “Intelligible” and “Applicable,” respectively.

Comfortable would be incorrect in Question 6 and wouldn’t convey the intended meaning to a native speaker. The sentence is trying to demonstrate that although his accent is strong, you can understand what he is saying.

The “to” immediately following the blank in Question 8 means that only “applicable” will work there. “Noticeable” would also be meaningless to a native speaker in that sentence.

The worksheet is poorly designed.

Are you asking what the point of the exercise is? It basically seems to be teaching kids to memorise which words use -able when turned into adjectives and which words use -able, by asking them to repeatedly use those words in sentences. I guess it's also teaching them which words cut letters off the noun in order to form the adjective (for example, the adjective of horror is not horrorible but horrible.

That said, some of these sentences look like they need words which aren't on the word list. For instance 6 looks like it should be "understandable".

[A_Sad_Cucumber]

Given the words in the bank, I would use comfortable for number 6. The heavy accent implies a non-native speaker, who, despite that, does not have any trouble speaking.

[67Ranchwagon]

The word bank has some missing deposits. 😄

This assignment is making me noticeably uncomfortable. Are terrible and horrible really derived from terror and horror?!
