FCE Word Formation

Use the word in brackets (the stem) to form a new word with which to fill the gap. To do this exercise, you need to decide if the word missing is an adjective,  a noun, a verb, or an adverb. You might need to add a prefix or a suffix to the stem given in brackets too.   (More FCE - Free Practice Tests here)

Example,

Throughout history, women have had (responsible) ............. for healing the sick.

We have "things" (concrete or abstracts) so we need a noun. Responsible is an adjective... We need another word in the family, but it has to be a noun. The noun is RESPONSABILITY.

Answer: Throughout history,  women have had responsability for healing the sick.
