What this part tests

Questions 21–24: 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.
“I know, but it’s the fresh air that attracts me – organising something indoors doesn’t have the same appeal, even though it might be fun.”
B fits because Holly is drawn by 'the fresh air', while 'organising something indoors doesn't have the same appeal'.
“Oh I see – that’ll include keeping everyone within the boundary once they’re in their kit and on the field?”
A matches the duty of 'keeping everyone within the boundary once they're in their kit and on the field'.
“And that’s not always easy, especially when a proud parent’s trying to get a snap of their child and you want them to move elsewhere.”
A is right: the job is hard 'when a proud parent's trying to get a snap of their child and you want them to move'.
“Yeah, and I was thinking about what to do if someone got hurt as well. I know that last year that caused a terrible delay.”
B fits the concern about 'what to do if someone got hurt', which 'last year caused a terrible delay'.
