SKILL 19: ANTICIPATE THE QUESTIONS

It is very helpful for your capacity to answer singular inquiries with long discussions in the event that you can suspect what the inquiries will be and listen particularly to the responses to those inquiries.

Example

In your test book, you read:

(A) In the airport

(B) In the library

(C) In the dormitory

(D) In the travel agent’s office

You try to anticipate the question:

Where does the conversation probably take place?

In this example, you can be sure that one of the questions will be about where the conversation takes place. As you are sure that this is one of the questions, you can listen carefully to the clues that will give you the answer. This example shows that a useful strategy, therefore is to look briefly at the answers in the test book, before listening to the conversations in the recording, and try to determine the questions that you will be asked to answer.
