What this part tests
This part is tested with One Choice (Q1–6). Each section below gives the strategy for that question type, the answers, and the sentence that proves them.
Questions 1–6: One Choice
Strategy: Read the question stem and predict the answer before looking at the options. Wrong options often repeat words from the audio while the correct one paraphrases them.
“The gallery opens at 10, and the ‘Family Welcome’ event runs from 10.30 until 2 o’clock.”
B fits: the gallery opens at 10, but the 'Family Welcome event runs from 10.30 until 2', so it starts at 10.30.
“they’re going to show a short film that the gallery has produced. It demonstrates how ceramics are made”
C fits: they will 'show a short film' that 'demonstrates how ceramics are made', so a film about pottery.
“the majority at lunchtime”
B fits: most visitors come 'the majority at lunchtime', so lunchtime is the busiest period.
“then at 4 it’s in the City Museum”
A fits: the later event is 'at 4 ... in the City Museum', so the City Museum is the venue.
“The race starts at Offord Marina, to the north of Burnham, and goes as far as Summer Pool”
C fits: the race 'starts at Offord Marina, to the north of Burnham, and goes as far as Summer Pool'.
“One of them came first in the West of England regional championship in May this year”
A fits: one competitor 'came first in the West of England regional championship in May', so a regional win.
