Task 1. Study Skills. Multiple matching – listening for opinion/attitude

Before you listen, read the sentences and make a note of the key words. Then try to think of synonymous words or phrases or other related vocabulary. The exact words in the sentences will not be heard on the recording but will be paraphrased or referred to in some way. Listen out, too, for words or phrases that express opinion or attitude (e.g. I think/believe … I love/hate …), as this can also help you do the task. You will hear information which may make more than one answer seem appropriate. When you hear the recording for the second time, listen carefully to check your answers.

Preparing for the task

1 a) Look at pictures A–C. Match what the people say (1–3) to each sport. Which words helped you decide?

1. “I just love it. There’s nothing like watching it live. I enjoy the atmosphere in the stadium. Everyone cheers and shouts. It’s really great, especially when my team scores the winning goal.”

2. “I know lots of people really enjoy playing or watching it but I personally can’t stand it. I can’t feel the tension and I can’t understand how people get excited watching two people hit a ball back and forth until one of them misses.”

3. “Most people learn how to do it as kids. I didn’t, but as I was watching the others having fun I said to myself, ‘It’s never too late.’ At first I felt like I was going to drown, but after some time I learnt to float and I became more confident in the water. Now I go twice a week.”

b) The following phrases express opinion/attitude. Which of them are used in the texts in Ex. 1a?

Expressing opinion/attitude

I love/don’t like …

I feel that…

I believe/don’t believe that…

I think/don’t think …

To me …

I personally …

You’ll hear a boy talking about a sport. How does he feel about it? Which phrases helped you decide?

RNE You will hear 6 monologues. Match each speaker’s monologue A–F with statements given in the list 1–7. Each statement can only be used once. One of the statements is extra. You will hear the recording twice.

1. I don’t know why people like them.
2. I’d rather do something more relaxing.
3. I’m too afraid to try anything like that.
4. Other sports are too boring for me.
5. I’d like to try a sport like that.
6. I don’t enjoy it as much as I used to.
7. I don’t regret my decision to give it up.

Task 3. Study Skills. Multiple choice – listening for gist

Read the stems and the answer choices. Find the key words in each. As you do this, pay attention to questions that relate to a general idea, e.g. What is the speaker’s main point about circus animals? This general idea will often be reinforced in the recording by connected groups of words or phrases, e.g. unkind to animals, have to perform tricks, are kept in cages. The correct answer choice will summarise this vocabulary, e.g. Circus animals live an unnatural life.

Preparing for the task

3 a) Match the words to the picture(s). Some words match more than one picture.

b) Listen to Tracey talking about an evening out. Where did she go?

Theatre; circus; magic show.

Which words helped you decide?

c) You’re going to hear someone talking about one of the following forms of entertainment:

Magic show; juggling act; puppet theatre.

Before you listen, think of some key words you expect to hear for each choice.

d) Now listen. Choose the correct answer. What form of entertainment does he describe? What key words does he mention?
