What it is: You read a list of sentences about the recording. The instruction tells you how many are true (usually five). Tick exactly that many. Each right tick = 1 mark.
The instruction on the paper: Scegli le cinque affermazioni vere. [5] → Choose the five true statements.

Short example: 3 of the 6 sentences are true

The instruction here says 3, so choose 3. Then show the answer.

Ascolterai Sofia, che parla della sua nuova scuola.

  1. Scegli le tre affermazioni vere. A. Sofia fa colazione con i compagni. B. Sofia fa colazione a casa. C. Beve sempre un succo d'arancia. D. Va a scuola in autobus. E. La scuola è vicina. F. Il pomeriggio torna a casa.

Ciao, mi chiamo Sofia. Prima facevo colazione a casa, ma da quando frequento la scuola nuova faccio colazione in mensa con i miei compagni. Prendo sempre un panino e un succo d'arancia. Poi andiamo a lezione a piedi, perché la scuola è vicinissima: solo cinque minuti. Il pomeriggio resto a scuola per il corso di teatro.

Hi, my name is Sofia. I used to have breakfast at home, but since I started at the new school I have breakfast in the canteen with my classmates. I always have a roll and an orange juice. Then we walk to class, because the school is very close: only five minutes. In the afternoon I stay at school for the drama course.

Affermazioni vere: il lavoro di Irene

Read the six statements, play, choose three.

Ascolterai Irene, che lavora come guida in un parco naturale.

  1. Scegli le tre affermazioni vere. A. Irene lavora nel parco da tre anni. B. Adesso lavora in un ufficio. C. Accompagna anche gruppi di scuole. D. In inverno il parco è chiuso. E. Irene è pagata molto bene. F. Non vuole cambiare lavoro.

Mi chiamo Irene e da tre anni faccio la guida nel Parco del Gran Paradiso. Prima lavoravo in un ufficio a Milano, ma non ero felice. Adesso accompagno gruppi di turisti e di scuole, soprattutto in primavera e in estate. In inverno il parco è aperto, ma io lavoro solo il fine settimana. La cosa più bella? Vedere gli stambecchi da vicino. Il lavoro non è pagato benissimo, però non lo cambierei mai.

My name is Irene and for three years I've been a guide in the Gran Paradiso Park. Before, I worked in an office in Milan, but I wasn't happy. Now I take groups of tourists and schools, especially in spring and summer. In winter the park is open, but I only work at weekends. The best thing? Seeing the ibexes up close. The job isn't very well paid, but I would never change it.

  1. A, C, F

Do

  • Tick exactly the number asked.
  • Check time words: prima, ora.
  • Tick only what you heard.

Don't

  • Tick a statement for one word.
  • Choose what sounds likely.
  • Write six letters to be safe.
