There are five questions and an example question. You must choose the correct answer from options A, B or C. These options can be pictures, words or numbers.

Note: Write your answers on the question paper during the test. You do not transfer any answers to the answer sheet until the end of the test.

Exam advice

Before you listen

•Read the questions and look at the choices to help you understand the topic.

•Underline the important words in each question.

First listening

•Listen out for the underlined words or words that are like these. In the example above, the word school is in the question, and the word lessons is on the recording.

•Remember to listen carefully for the tense (e.g. present simple, present perfect) and person (e.g. he, she, they) used in the question.

•Tick your answer in pencil on the question paper.

Second listening

•Check your choice of answer is correct and fill in any answers you didn't get the first time.
