• 6. headlines vs homework: 'Headlines' are the main news stories in a newspaper. 'Homework' is school work. The sentence asks about seeing something in the newspaper.
• 7. forecast vs cope: 'Forecast' is a prediction of future weather. 'Cope' means to deal with a difficult situation. The sentences refer to weather prediction and managing stress.
• eyes on: This is an idiomatic expression meaning to watch or focus on someone or something.
• 8. test vs gadgets: A 'test' is an examination, like a driving test. 'Gadgets' are small electronic devices. The sentences refer to passing a driving test and having many electronic devices.
