Part 1: Picture: Tips

Look at the photograph quickly before you listen to the four statements. Think about who is in the picture, where it is, and what is happening. This will make it much easier to pick out the correct answer when you listen to the statements.

Example:

Who is in the picture?
 A man, a woman, and a check-in clerk
 
Where was it taken?
 In the airport
 
What is happening?
 They are checking in.
 

It is important to listen to the whole of each statement carefully. Part of a statement may be true, but not all of it. A statement must be completely true to be the correct answer.

Example:

He is sitting on a bench in a park.

This statement is incorrect because it is only partly true. He is sitting on a bench, but he is in the street, not in a park.

When you are choosing which statement is the correct answer, be careful of words that have a meaning which is connected with what is in the picture — they may be there to mislead¹ you! For example, if the picture shows a car, and there is a statement with the word chauffeur² in it, this may lead you to think this is the correct answer even if it is not. This applies to Part 2, 3, and 4 also.

 Example:

The chauffeur is getting in the car.

The picture has a car in it, and the word chauffeur is connected with cars. However, this is not the correct answer because the person in the picture is not getting in a car. He is washing the car.
