The Listening Module takes around 30 minutes. There are 40 questions. There are four sections.
The fisrt two sections are concerned with social needs. There is a conversation between two speakers and then a monologue. For example- a conversation about travel requirements or decisions on a night out, and a speech about amenities on a University campus or arrangements for
Meals during a conference.
The final two sections are concerned with situations related more closely to educational or training contexts. There is a conversation between up to four people and then a further monologue. For example – conversation between a tutor and a student about an assignment or between three students in a common room planning a research project, and a lecture or talk of general academic interest.
All the topics are of general interest and it makes no difference what subjects candidates study.
Texts and tasks become more difficult as the sections progress.
A variety of questions are used, chosen from the following types:
.Multiple choice
.Short-answer questions
.Sentence completion
.Notes/summary/diagram/flow chart/table completion
.Labelling a diagram which has numbered parts
.Classification
.Matching
