    Listening

    The listening test has 25 questions. There are a number of things


    to remember about the listening test:

    1. All 25 questions use the 4-option multiple choice format.

    2. Candidates can listen to audios twice in Parts 1 and 2 but only once
    in Parts 3 and 4

    3. Each candidate will take the exam independently using headphones.


    Listening
    Test Design Description
    Part 1
    In these questions, candidates listen to a short phone message
    Word and and you need to identify specific information such as a number
    (e.g. phone number, time) or a word.
    number
    recognition

    In this part, candidates will listen to three recordings of


    monologues or dialogues and they will have to
    answer two questions for each recording.
    Part 2
    Tip: Candidates should use the fact that you can listen twice to
    their advantage here:
    Identifying o Read through the questions before they listen
    information o Predict what someone might say about these things
    o On the first listen they can select their answers
    o On the second listen they have time to confirm.
    Listening (cont.)
    Test Design Description

    Candidates will hear a discussion once between a


    man and a woman and on the screen a
    Part 3 number of opinions will be shown. Candidates will need to identify
    who expresses which opinion:
    (A) The man (B) The woman (C) Both the man and the woman
    Identiying
    Opinions Tip: Candidates have 20 seconds before the audio begins. They
    should use this to read the options and make notes on what they
    think they should listen for (e.g. numbers, synonyms.)

    In this part, candidates will hear two separate monologues once.


    Part 4 They will need to select the correct answers from a table.

    Contrasting Tip: Candidates have 20 seconds before the audio begins. We


    Monologues suggest they use this time to speculate what kind of words they
    expect them to hear around these opinions so they can listen out
    for hints.
