Listening: forms, notes and short answers

Practice a focused set of listening questions. Hear the recording once, answer at your own pace, then review the transcript and explanations.

• Check your sound before starting. The sound check does not use an attempt.
• Read the questions during the countdown. The recording starts automatically when it reaches zero.
• Your answers, original clock and place in the audio survive a reload. Audio resumes from the current point, without replaying earlier speech.
