awk print variable

I have list of files:

Code:
ls
a.pdf
b.pdf
c.pdf

and so on...

and I have a file like this:

Code:
cat file1
apple
mango
pear

and so on...

I want to rename my file like this:

Code:
mv a.pdf a-apple.pdf
mv b.pdf b-mango.pdf
mv c.pdf c-pear.pdf

and so on...

So far I have in mind something like this:

Code:
for i in `ls`
do
mv $i $(echo $i|awk -F. '{print $1'$(awk {NR==$j} file1)'"."$2})'
done

but I know that has many problems which I need some help to solve.
Please help. Thanks.
