Comments
I have few concerns about 3 of your answers and questions. First, the speaking part of the question 2 and 3 while the lady is speaking and the answer is given it seems that it doesn't really match with the text and the speaker and the information given on the paper sheet. (Please see below)
"the Principal’s talk will last about fifteen minutes and then the Director of Studies will talk to you for half an hour about the courses" and then the speaker and the text says "the Student Adviser will tell you about the various services and activities we offer to students".
Also, for question 29 the correct answer is given by you and as it is on the Tapescripts is (EXPERTS) but after listening few times the speaker does not pronounce the "S" on expert.
Please, could you help to clarify on this?
Thank you.
Thank you for your reply.
It should not be confusing. Look at the table for question 1-5. Each starting word in the table row is capitalised i.e. Meet, Talk, Classroom. So naturally, your answer should follow the same pattern. In fact, many test takers make it all capital (like - MAIN HALL, STUDENT(S) ADVISOR) to avoid any confusion. You can also follow this to avoid possible mistakes in capitalisation.
Is it correct if we write all capital as you mentioned here without losing any marks? Hope you will reply soon.
Seems like the audio was corrected. Could you please confirm via a comment here? Thanks a lot.
