What this part tests
This part is tested with Note Completion (Q1–4). Each section below gives the strategy for that question type, the answers, and the sentence that proves them.
Questions 1–4: Note Completion
Strategy: Predict the word class from the note, find the paraphrase of the note's keyword in the transcript, then copy the answer exactly within the word limit.
“Well, obviously it varies, but always places of historical interest and also which offer a variety of shopping, because our students always ask about that”
Students ask about places offering 'a variety of shopping', so the note needs that noun.
“and then we go for ones where we know there are guided tours, because this gives a good focus for the visit”
Trips are chosen where 'there are guided tours', because this gives the visit a focus.
“Oh, and we do offer to arrange special trips if, you know, there are more than twelve people”
Special trips are arranged when there are 'more than twelve people', so the note reads more than 12.
“You sign your name on the notice board. Do you know where it is?MAN: Ah ha. I saw it this morning.WOMAN: And we do ask that you sign up three days in advance”
Booking starts by signing 'on the notice board', three days in advance.
