GENERAL POINTS 

  • Prepare to listen – anticipate, underline key words and note them down before listening. E.g. synonyms, opposites, theme-related words.
  • Use the first listening to understand the text. Make notes on the question paper if that helps you. Do not stop listening when worrying about anything you do not understand.
  • Do not decide your answers too soon. There will be traps. Target language mentioned in the wrong context, or details may be expressed in the negative rather than the positive to trick you so keep listening.
