1. b) Match the items to what they taste like. Then, write, as in the example. Ginger is a spice.

Solution:

The task is to match the numbered items from the image to their taste descriptions (A, B, C, D) and then write the item number with its corresponding taste, following the example 'Ginger is a spice.' The example provided is 'Ginger is hot and spicy,' and Ginger is associated with item 2 (chili peppers).

Let's analyze each item:

• Item 1: Appears to be dried food, possibly nuts or seeds. Could be savory or bland.
• Item 2: Chili peppers. These are known to be hot & spicy. So, 2 matches with A (hot & spicy).
• Item 3: Appears to be a mix of crisps and something else. The crisps could be salty or bland.
• Item 4: Cake. Typically sweet. So, 4 matches with B (sweet).
• Item 5: Crisps. Typically salty. So, 5 matches with D (salty).
• Item 6: Waffles with toppings. Likely sweet. So, 6 matches with B (sweet).
• Item 7 & 8: Lemons/Limes. These are definitely sour. So, 7 and 8 match with C (sour).

The example given is 'Ginger is hot and spicy.' This implies that the item representing ginger (or chili peppers, which are similar in spiciness) should be matched with 'hot & spicy'. Item 2 (chili peppers) fits this description.

Based on this, the matching is as follows:

• 2 (Chili peppers) - A (hot & spicy)
• 4 (Cake) - B (sweet)
• 6 (Waffles) - B (sweet)
• 7, 8 (Lemons/Limes) - C (sour)
• 5 (Crisps) - D (salty)

Item 1 is difficult to categorize definitively without more information, but it looks like it could be part of a snack mix, possibly salty or bland.

The question asks to write as in the example: 'Ginger is hot and spicy.' It seems we need to state the item number and its corresponding taste.

Item 2 (chili peppers) is hot & spicy.

Item 4 (cake) is sweet.

Item 6 (waffles) is sweet.

Items 7 & 8 (lemons/limes) are sour.

Item 5 (crisps) is salty.

Example provided: 1 Ginger is hot and spicy. (This likely refers to item 2, the chili peppers, as 'ginger' is mentioned in the text but not shown as a numbered item. We assume item 2 represents a spicy element).

The matching based on taste is:

• 2 - A hot & spicy
• 4 - B sweet
• 6 - B sweet
• 7 - C sour
• 8 - C sour
• 5 - D salty
