26 Sep '15 general - 9 for L & R

Hello,
I was so happy to get 9s for Listening and Reading :lol: - so now I know it can be done!

It was mostly thanks to tips and tricks found on free resources on websites and the official practice book (with DVD) sold by ielts.

Academic-Pearson test of English

Hello I realise that the questions and answers cannot be discussed for PTE, but has anyone else sat this test and ielts? Any thoughts, opinions and feedback. I have written this computer based test and found it much easier than ielts -it was shorter at about 2.5 hours including speaking. Sadly I mis...

Re: Please share listening and reading answers of 24th October general training test

Evening, I feel that memorisation skills would be useful in daily life. But I chose the answer that matched the text- not given. Of course we will never get the official answers :( Only six days left till our results are out :D Wishing everyone the best of luck - does anyone plan to share their L&am...

Re: 26-09-2015 GT listening and reading answers

Evening, I liked task R2 about the historic sites in Macquarie, NSW, Australia - though I do think the examiners shrewd for putting four buildings and a non-building into the task! I think I had eight questions on this task and a site had to be matched to paragraph A to E (one site per paragraph): A...

Re: 26-09-2015 GT listening and reading answers

Re: 26-09-2015 GT listening and reading answers

Hi, here are my L4 answers: The lecture was given by a man and the topic was on coal mining in Canada. There was a table that required completion - it was on lamps used in the mines. There were also gap fills. Spring (miners arrived in this season) Candle (first type of miners lamp used a ...with op...

Re: 26-09-2015 GT listening and reading answers

Hello, I failed to remember much about L3. It featured two speakers - a male student and female lecturer discussing the moas - a bird that was found in NZ. I think the ten questions were split -with some having a multiple choice of A to C and others could have been gap fill? :oops: I did say they be...

Re: 26-09-2015 GT listening and reading answers

Hiya, here are my interpretations of the answers I gave: The first listening task - L1- was a telephone conversation between a man and woman. He is enquiring about dance classes at a Salsa school. The first four questions were required to be matched to at least three letters A=rapido, B=booster &...

Re: Please share listening and reading answers of 24th October general training test

My interpretation of listening 3 task, that is the two students talking to the lecturer: There were five multiple choice questions with three choices - A, B or C. Then there were five match phrases to the Roman numerals - I remember none of these five! :oops: So my questions 21 to 25 were: Limited t...

Re: Please share listening and reading answers of 24th October general training test

I have loaded a simple reproduction of the map used in L2. Some I am confident about and others I found the wrording intentionally confusing. I did not use points M and E. Points X Y Z were messed up by me. I remember we had to state where the pool was. But did we also have to give the gym or golf c...

Re: Please share listening and reading answers of 24th October general training test

Have also not seen any mention of R2 answers so here are my thoughts. This task required gap fill three words and/or a number. Insurance (required for parcels above .), $1,500 (max. Cost of parcel contents), Red consignment note (if valued at more than 250 $), Export ... (If for work- cannot remembe...

Re: Please share listening and reading answers of 24th October general training test

Not much chatter about R3 task, so here is my interpretation. The topic was about canteens in the workplace. There were seven questions and the task required gap fill of up to two words. Fridge (required by legislation), ..Cannot remember, Protein (moderate amount of dairy and protein required), Mai...
