1 C   (very common. We don’t usually use very with usual, and the meaning of familiar and general don’t have the right meaning to fit here.)

2 B   (Temperature rises – (goes up) and falls/drops (goes down))

3 A   (the lake is located near the park – this is its location)

4 D   (thick is the only option that can follow one metre to describe its size. We could also say one metre long, high, tall, wide or deep – but not any of the adjectives given here)

5 C   (Visitors have the opportunity – the chance – to make their own ice sculptures.)

6 B   (absolutely everything. This is testing collocation, as absolutely is the only adverb here that can go with everything.)
