IELTS Listening -- Section 4 #ieltsexam
Listening is the first part of IELTS exam. It lasts for 30 minutes and consists of four sections with 10 questions each. Each section is different in its topic, the number of speakers, and the overall difficulty. This page will walk you through the basics of IELTS Listening, various types of tasks and provide tips on how to improve your score.
Between each group of questions, you are given 10 to 30 seconds to look at the questions. Use this time to underline keywords in questions.
Answers to the questions in listening come one after another, meaning that the first question will have its answer at the beginning of the recording, the answer to question two will come after it, and so on. Follow this pattern to avoid unnecessary search.
Section 4 is usually a lecture-type narrative by one person. It is an academic, term-packed speech on a topic that tests your ability to understand scientific terms and guess the meaning of those you possibly do not understand. The most difficult of the four, this section gauges your ability to understand the focus of the speech, the speaker’s opinion on the ideas presented as well as factual information.
When practicing, if you find it difficult to make out what the speakers say, consider consulting the script for unknown words. This only refers to your practice listening, as you won’t have the tapescript during the actual exam, naturally. If the problem persists, practice more. Expose yourself to more recorded English speech.
