Cambridge Ielts 1 Listening Test 2 Answers |verified|

Section 2 introduces a monologue. Without a partner to ask questions, the speaker provides all the information in a flow that requires sustained concentration.

For multiple-choice questions in this test, do not rely on hearing the exact words from the options. The IELTS test uses paraphrasing .

| Error Type | Example from this test | Correction | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Wrong date format | 24-5 | 24th May | | Spelling of names | Sheraton → Shareton | Write phonetically, check common hotel names | | Plural vs singular | fine / fines | Listen carefully: “a fine” (singular) vs “fines” (plural) | | Word count violation | “evening meal” (Q4) is OK; “sea view” (2 words) is OK; “criminal negligence” would be 2 words for Q39 – wrong because only “negligence” fits. | Always check “ONE WORD ONLY” / “NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS” | | Missing the correction | Speaker says “1,400…actually no, 1,450” | Always write the final number. |

Match the course component to the student’s opinion (A = Ben only, B = Emma only, C = Both).
