Read the questions and get information.

Once you get the test paper, you should use all possible time to read the questions quickly, make some marks appropriately, listen with the questions, and search for the answers with predictions, that is, "purposefully" "Listen", change from passive to active, and fight a well-prepared battle. An effective way to treat all listening tests is to take the time to read the options first and refine the information:

1. Enter the people, places, situations and situations involved in the listening content, such as books Museums, hospital wards, etc., thereby associating words related to that environment and quickly entering the state.

2. When the three options are similar phrases, the test focus is on this detail. At this time, you should fully concentrate on understanding the detailed test points corresponding to the options such as time numbers.

Practice more often.
