Read the following passage and choose the correct words to fill in the blanks.
Becoming an independent language learner
In an educational context, the term “learner independence” increasing importance in recent years. It is of particular to language learning and commonly refers to the way students confidently control and organise their own language learning process. While some people seem to have an almost instinctive flair for languages, others have to rely on strategies to maximise their skills and learn a foreign language more effectively. Learner independence is not just about learning on your own, but also about developing a mindset where you take charge of your learning journey. It involves setting clear goals that reflect on your progress and you seek new opportunities to practice.
The main thing to remember is that becoming a truly independent learner ultimately depends above all on responsibility for your own learning and being prepared to take every opportunity available to you to learn. You also increase your chances of success by learning according to your own needs and interests, using all available resources. Research shows that learners adopt this approach will undoubtedly manage to broaden their language abilities considerably and, , are more likely to achieve their objectives in the longer term.
Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
Dust Storms
Imagine standing outside in the afternoon and suddenly seeing a massive wall of dark sand. This terrifying weather event is generally known as a haboob. Originating from an Arabic word, a haboob is a giant dust storm that commonly occurs in extremely dry regions. These incredible storms can reach up to one kilometer high, and they often travel at highly dangerous speeds.
Haboobs are actually created by ordinary summer thunderstorms. When a large thunderstorm suddenly collapses, a large amount of cold air is pushed downward quickly. As this freezing wind hits the dry desert ground, it blows outward in all directions. The strong air picks up loose dirt and sand. Then, it pushes these heavy materials high into the sky. As a result, a solid curtain of dust rolls across the land, and it swallows everything in its path.
Although a haboob usually lasts for only a few hours, it can cause serious problems for local cities. The thick dust completely blocks the sunlight, which immediately changes day into night. Furthermore, driving becomes impossible because people cannot see the road ahead. Recent storms have damaged city power lines, and they have forced airports to close entirely to protect passengers. While they are a natural part of desert life, haboobs remain a powerful display of nature's hidden strength.
What does the word "swallows" most likely mean in paragraph 2?
