What this part tests

This part is tested with One Choice (Q11–15). Each section below gives the strategy for that question type, the answers, and the sentence that proves them.

Questions 11–15: 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.

Q11C
“His heir chose to sell it to the local council, who turned it into offices.”

C fits: the heir 'chose to sell it to the local council, who turned it into offices'.

Q12B
“Developers will construct houses on the existing lower school site.”

B matches the plan that 'developers will construct houses on the existing lower school site'.

Q13A
“But there’s only one serving point, so most pupils have to wait a considerable time to be served.”

A is right because 'there's only one serving point', so pupils 'wait a considerable time to be served'.

Q14A
“is to discuss with your children each morning which type of food they want to eat that day”

A fits the advice 'to discuss with your children each morning which type of food they want to eat that day'.

Q15C
“We’ll still have tables and chairs in there, and pupils can eat food from the Food Hall or lunch they’ve brought from home.”

C matches the new dining area, where pupils 'can eat food from the Food Hall or lunch they've brought from home'.
