reading of the directions for each part)
In this section of the test, you
will have an opportunity to demonstrate your ability to understand
conversations and talks in English. There are three parts in this section.
Answer all the questions on the basis of what is stated or implied by the
speakers you hear. Do not take notes or write in your test book at any time. Do
not turn the pages until you are told to do so.
Part A
Directions: In Part A you will hear short
conversations between two people. After each conversation, you will hear a
question about the conversation. The conversation and questions will not be
repeated. After you hear a question, read the four possible answers in your
test book and choose the best answer. Then, on your answer sheet, find the number
of the question and fill in the space that corresponds to the letter of the
answer you have chosen.
Listen to an example.
On the recording, you
hear:
(man) : Have you
sent the parcels?
(woman) : Yes. I had
them sent yesterday.
(narrator) : What does
the woman mean?
In your test book,
you read:
(A) The parcels had been sent by the woman.
(B) The woman sends the parcels.
(C) The parcels had sent yesterday.
(D) The woman had been sent yesterday
You learn from the
conversation that the woman had sent the parcels yesterday (active). It
means that the parcels had been sent by the woman (passive). The best
answer to the question, “What does the woman mean?” is (A) “The parcels had
been sent by the woman.”Therefore, the correct choice is (A).
