Cambridge Ielts 3 Listening Test 4 | Birth Statistics IELTS Listening with answers

Cambridge IELTS, Book-3, Listening Test-4 with Answers #latest #ieltslisteningtest #IELTSLISTENING #birthstatisticsieltslistening The 4 key skills of ielts listening are: Prediction Recognising synonyms & paraphrasing Key word technique Recognising distractors 1) Prediction Before each recording plays, you will have a short time to read through the question. Try to predict what the answers might be. This will focus your mind on what to listen out for in the recording. Occasionally, you’ll be able to predict the actual word but mostly it’s one or more of these three things that you’ll be able to determine: The type of information required, e.g. surname, place name, date, phone number, postcode percentage, price. The type of word required, e.g. noun, adjective, verb. Synonyms or paraphrasing that might be used, e.g. ‘a quarter’ for ‘25%’, ‘business functions’ for ‘corporate events’. Any clues you can get will help you to understand the audio and identify the information needed for the answers. 2) Synonyms & Paraphrasing Of all the IELTS listening skills, this second one is the most important as it's essential for understanding the recording. Something you can be certain of is that the spoken text will contain synonyms and paraphrasing of key words and phrases in the questions. So, do not expect to hear the same vocabulary in the recording as is written in the questions. I recommend writing down and learning a couple of common synonyms for every new word you learn. This will help you to quickly build up an extensive and versatile vocabulary. One of the best ways to practice recognising and using synonyms and paraphrasing is through listening to short videos or podcasts. 3) Key word technique A technique you can use in the exam to help you deal with synonyms and paraphrasing is to identify the keywords or phrases in the question and quickly think of synonyms or related words that might come up in the recording. You’ll only have 20 seconds or so to do this but it could make a huge difference to how well you understand the audio and how successful you are at identifying the answers. Underline or highlight the key words as I've done in capital letters for this illustration using a question from a past paper. 4) Recognising Distractors Another important IELTS listening skill is the ability to recognise distractors. These are words or phrases used by a speaker to qualify something or to correct themselves or another speaker. In the recording, a piece of information may be given and then corrected or changed. If you’re not listening carefully, you’ll think that the first piece of information is the answer when it is the second detail that is the correct answer. Distractors are common in the listening test and are intended to try and catch you out. You should note that though you still have an example answer at the beginning of the test, the actual beginning of the audio is no longer played twice as of January 2020. Now the test begins and does not stop. Also, 'sections' are now called 'parts' and references to page numbers are not given. IELTS Listening Test and Tips You will listen to 4 different recordings and answer 40 questions. The test takes approximately 30 minutes. You will have an additional ten minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet You only hear the audio once.

Improve your general listening skills The goal of IELTS Listening section is to test your listening skills. Don't use practice tests to improve your score: it's not enough! They will help you to become familiar with the test, but won't much improve your listening abilities. It is much more effective to do various listening exercises, listen to general listening materials (radio reports, TV-shows, documental programs etc) and only after that do IELTS Listening practice tests. 2. Polish your topic vocabulary Section 3 is almost always about education. For example, students and a tutor talking about an assignment. Learn all the vocabulary you can about studying at university. This way you will understand this section better. On the test 3. Word types Skip over the questions and decide which type of word fits in each gap. Is it a noun, verb, adverb or adjective?

"Plug in" the situation Try to get an idea of the situation. Before each part you will be given a short introduction: 'Now, you will hear a dialogue between…' or 'you will hear a lecture on…' This information is not written on the question paper, so be attentive. Note: who are the speakers, why are they speaking and where are they. This will make understanding the rest of the recording much easier. 5. Don't loose attention Remember, you will only hear the audio once. So if you didn't hear some words and passed over some questions, don't worry! Leave them blank and focus on the actual part. 6. Watch out words-indicators Listen for words-indicators, such as however, but, then, finally. They help you to anticipate what the speaker will say. 7. Don't write answers too quickly A lot of students fall into this trap: as soon as they hear the needed information, they take it for the correct answer. But sometimes this information is repeated or corrected further in the section. #ieltslisteningtest , ielts,ielts listening,ielts 2021,listening test,listening ielts,ielts listening test 2021,listening ielts practice,IELTS,the ielts listening test,ielts test,ielts new,listening,IELTS LISTENING PRACTICE TEST 2021 WITH ANSWERS, IELTS LIstening MEMBERSHIP OF SPORTS CENTRE. IELTS Cambridge IELTS 3 Listening Test 3. 8. Check for silly mistakes After each section you have 30 seconds to check your answers. It is important to check spelling, plurals and word forms. Remember that only correctly written answers will gain points. 9. Transfer answers accurately At the end of the listening test you will have 10 minutes for transferring your answers into the answer sheet. And quite often students get confused in the numeration! As you write down your answers, check that they fit into the correct numbered space. 10. Don't leave any blank answers! You won't lose marks for incorrect answers, so even if you don't know the answer it is better to write something in the answers box.

 

Cambridge IELTS Book 2 - Listening Practice Test 4 with Answers | MIC house agency listening 2021

IELTS practice test Cambridge Book 2 - Listening Test 4, MIC House Agency - Repairs ielts listening 2021 9 listening tips for your IELTS exam Attempt all questions – there are no penalties for incorrect answers. Be careful to not waste time on a question that you don’t know though - guess and move on. Watch out for plurals in answers. If the question requires a plural answer, a singular answer is incorrect. Answers appear in the order they are heard in the audio. They come quickly or with large gaps between them. Prepare to hear a potential answer that is not the actual answer. This is common when two people are making plans. They first agree on meeting at a certain time, but then one remembers that they cannot so they decide on a new time. Take care when you transfer your answers and pay attention to the word limit for your answers on your answer sheet! Multiple choice answers will ask for a letter (a, b, c, d). Write the letter and not the corresponding answer. When asked to complete a sentence using no more than two words, and the correct answer is “leather coat,” then “a coat made of leather” is incorrect. Same goes for numbers. Hyphenated words (like “part-time”) are considered as one word. A date (1990) is considered one number. 00:04 - MIC house agency section 1 04:45 - section 1 answers 05:17 - ielts 2 test 4 section 2 10:11 - section 2 answers 10:33 - section 3 ques 31 - 40 15:50 - ielts 2 test 4 section 3 answers 16:20 - section 4 transcript section 4 Section 4 Good evening. Welcome once again to Criminology 201. I’m happy to see you all looking so alert and full of energy after a busy day. Tonight, and for the next few weeks, we will be looking at what is clearly a very important topic – corporate crime. First of all, what do we mean by ‘corporate crime? The simple answer, of course, is crime com-mitted by a corporation, usually by the heads of a corporation working together. But what about a crime committed by, for example, the CEO of a company who, without the knowledge of his colleagues, bribes a government official in order to get a big fat contract for his company? Well, we won’t be looking at this kind of white-collar crime. Rather, we’ll restrict our study to cases where the top people in a business entity work together and knowingly break the law, and especially those cases where, until they get caught, this type of unlawful behaviour Is actually part of the corporate culture. First, why do they do it? The simple answer is ‘to make more money’. Well, most businessmen want to make more money, but they don’t break the law to do so. So what factors make a group of men – yes, they are usually men, but women are by no means immune from this temptation – decide to step outside the law? In the next few weeks we’ll be looking into this question, with a lot of case studies, In some depth. We will also try to divide corporate crime into several categories, and see what they share in common in terms of the psychology and organisational culture of those who commit them. And we will also look into the legal, social, and political settings in which these crimes occur. A particularly interesting aspect of corporate crime is the process of detection, trial, and punishment. It often seems that this type of crime goes on for an unreasonable length of time before it Is detected by the authorities. Is this true, and If so, why? There is also a common perception that people found guilty of corporate crimes are treated much more leniently by the courts than, for example, your common everyday thief, or murderer even. Is this true, and if so, why? I mentioned that we will divide corporate crime into several categories and look at some specific cases. What categories can we think of? Well, one is that of product safety, where a company markets a product that it knows to be unsafe. One of the landmark cases in corporate criminology of this type is the Ford Pinto case. Ford was accused of rushing the production of an unsafe car, and in 1980 there was the criminal trial of the Ford Motor Company for reckless homicide. We will look at the research on white-collar crime and studies on organisational culture and structure to examine the lack of safety and recall regulations that may have contributed to as many as 500 deaths. As one report put it, ‘Much of the literature on the Ford Pinto case focuses on how consumer safety was willingly sacrificed in the face of corporate greed.’ #ListeningTestwithAnswers #IELTS2Test4 #MIChouseagencyieltslistening
