conversation in your test booklet. There are four possible
answer choices for each of the questions. Your job is to choose
the best answer to each of the questions and mark the correct
letter on your answer sheet.

The common topics in this part are concerned with office tasks
and daily life. You should familiarize yourself with these topics
and learn necessary vocabulary in these subject areas.
Before listening, you should preview each set of three
questions about each conversation so that you can predict

1. Before listening, you should quickly preview the questions to


predict the main ideas.
2. To answer Question 1, you cannot simply listen for the name of
the location, which is seldom provided in the conversation. You
need to listen for vocabulary that is tied to a certain location.
3. The underlined parts marked (1) in the script are the key phrase
and sentence to find out the correct answer to Question 1: the
man is a guest and the woman is a receptionist; certainly, they are
at a hotel. From the sentence Can I ask for a wake-up call at 6:30
a.m.?, you can choose the correct answer to Question 2.
