This section measures your ability to understand conversations and lectures in English.
The Listening section is divided into separately timed parts. In each part you will listen to 1 conversation and 2 lectures. You will hear each conversation and lecture one time.
After each conversation or lecture, you will answer some questions about it. The questions typically ask about the main idea and supporting details. Some questions ask about a speaker's purpose or attitude. Answer the questions based on what is stated or implied by the speakers.
You may take notes while you listen. You may use your notes to help you answer the questions. Your notes will not be scored.
If you need to change the volume while you listen, click on the Volume icon at the top of the screen.
In some questions, you will see this icon: This means that you will hear, but not see, part of the question.
You must answer each question. After you answer, click on Next. Then click OK to confirm your answer and go on to the next question. After you click on OK, you cannot return to previous questions.
A clock at the top of the screen will show you how much time is remaining. The clock will count down only while you are answering questions.
You will now begin this part of the Listening section.
