1. Multiple Choice Questions:

3. True/False/Not Given Questions:
o You may be asked to decide whether a statement based on the spoken text is True,
False, or Not Given. This tests your ability to interpret details and understand
whether information was confirmed or not in the passage.
o Example:
The speaker is going to the cinema. True/False/Not Given.
4. Fill-in-the-Blank Questions:
o You may need to complete a sentence based on information heard in the audio. This
could involve filling in missing words, such as names, places, times, or other details.
o Example:
The speaker is going to _______ for the holiday.
5. Matching Questions:
o In some sections, you may be required to match speakers to the statements they made
or to match information from the audio to a set of options.
o Example:
