Listening test:
The first is IELTS Listening. At this time, the foreigner will give a brief introduction to the test method in English. Then he will try the headphones. He will play a recording and then ask whether it is loud or soft, and whether there is a problem with the headphones (if you have any, please mention it) ?When everyone has no questions, he will hand out the answer sheet, and then he will teach you how to fill in your name, exam number, date, etc. After everyone fills it out, the test paper will be handed out. Before that, he will say: Don't open it (don't open it). Then everyone put on their headphones and waited until they heard the exam started, then opened the exam paper and started taking the exam.
The listening test lasts 40 minutes and the questions are divided into four parts. The first part is a dialogue that occurs in daily life (usually between two people), the second part is a life-related monologue; the third part is an academic dialogue (usually between two or more people), and the fourth part is The difficulty of academic paper speeches increases in sequence (in order to further select the elite, sometimes some sentences contain heavy accents or idiomatic words). Usually the first three parts are divided into two paragraphs, each answering different questions. Candidates will have a short period of time to review each recording after listening to it (but because it will not be repeated, they must write their answers immediately). It takes 30 minutes to play all the recordings, and the remaining 10 minutes are for candidates to fill in the answers from the test paper onto the answer sheet. When the time is up, the examiner will collect the test paper and ask the candidate to turn over the answer sheet.
