Example
Below you will see how you can apply the listening skills in the actual exam.
A Analysing the information (2008－2016)
When you need to analyse if an option is true or not true, you should:
• listen very carefully. You may need to get your answers from different parts of the audio recording.
• check the options one by one. Do NOT just pay attention to the keywords.
Understand what each option is about.
• be careful with the options that have exactly the same keywords as the audio script. They may be there to mislead you.
Audio script
Chris: Being a photographer is not easy. I need to work long hours under the sun with only little pay. When compared with the days working in an office, I enjoy what I am doing now. The advice from teachers at St. Samson’s, my old school, helped me a lot.
What is NOT true about Chris?
A. He earns a lot. B. He studied at St. Samson’s School before.
C. He works for many hours a day. D. He worked in an office before.
Way out
• Pay attention to keywords like pay, earn, work, hours and school.
• Compare what you hear with what you see. Check the options one by one.
• Use the audio script to support your choice. In this case, only Option A is contradictory to the audio script.
B Calculating (2009－2016)
When you come across questions involving numbers or calculation, you should:
• pay attention to every ‘number-related’ word you hear or see (e.g. price, quantity, date, time).
• write them down as you listen. Use Arabic numbers (1, 2, 3…) or short form (e.g. Mon, Jan) to save time.
• choose the correct pieces of information to help you. Don’t forget to note negation words like not, except, never. Answer the question by calculation.
