In the first phase certain words or group of words have to be identified by clicking on them.

2701 bpr 6
In the second phase the learner has to provide some sort of "explanation" for 
7
each word or group of words (for example a translation, identification of the 
8
grammatical form, the irregular form of a verb or a plural noun, etc.).

in which case the learner will have to click on 
11
labels to hide certain words in the first phase of the exercise.
