One word, several meanings
Bank can refer to a financial institution or the edge of a river. Knowing one meaning does not establish the other. Follow the sense on the card and treat a different use in a text as another learning task.
Recognising spelling is not knowing pronunciation
Listen before repeating a word aloud. English spelling does not always make pronunciation predictable. Use the recording when you first meet a word, not only after you get an answer wrong.
A small practice example
Keep the direction of the action clear. Do not merge both words into one vague meaning. Learn the distinction, then retrieve each word from its meaning in a mixed order.

What should accompany card practice?
Add short readings, listening and actual conversations. Finding the correct answer on a card does not mean you can use the word in every context. Check the meaning first, then try to retrieve it independently after a break.
