Mixed Vocab from Higher Listening Paper

Mixed vocabulary and phrases, which frequently appear in listening and reading papers, taken from a higher listening paper (2012).

Any feedback from native or fluent Spanish speakers would be appreciated so I can ammend anything for the benefit of myself and the users of this resource (if I have accidentally spelt a word incorrectly or the English definition is not quite right). If anything is wrong, my apologies, my Spanish teacher told us these definitions when we went through the paper.
