Listening: 3.2 Multiple choice, multiple answer
For this item type you need to listen to the recording and answer the multiple-choice question. There is more than one correct response.
The audio begins to play automatically. You are only able to listen to the audio recording once.
You need to select all the response options that you think are correct from the list of possible options.
To select an option click on it using the left button on your mouse. If you change your mind, left-click on the option again to deselect it.
The options you select are highlighted in yellow.
Take notes of the main points and supporting details
In the 7 seconds before the recording begins, read the question and get ready to take notes to help you answer. Taking notes is likely to be more helpful than trying to select options while you listen because you may not hear the information in exactly the same order as the options.
Note down details (e.g., times, places, things that happened) as well as the main points, because you will need to select more than one option:
Select for meaning, not just to match the words you hear
Select the options that best match the meaning of what you have heard. Don’t just choose an option because it has the same words or phrases as the recording. Several options may use words from the recording but may not match the meaning of what you have heard.
