PART 1: PHOTOGRAPHS (1) A. Tactics
1. Always complete each items as quickly as possible so that you can preview the
photograph for next item. DonÕt wait for the statement that says ÒNow look at photograph number____Ó
2. If you are previewing a photograph that involves a person or people, look for
aspects of the photographs that are mentioned in the sentences:
¥ What are the people doing?
ü Active: cleaning, crossing, cutting, drawing, holding, jogging, loading, locking,
packing, pouring, pulling, pushing, selling, sitting, stretching, sweeping,
typing, watering, wrapping, leaning (against/on), performing, climbing, getting
on, getting off, taking off, boarding, point (at/to), staring at, gazing out, arranging, measuring ÉÉ..
ü Passive: being + cleaned, cleared, displayed, dug up, handed locked, painted,
planted, piled up, stacked up, served, set up, towed, washed, watered, ,
fixed/repaired, wrapped ,ÉÉÉ. ¥ Where are they?
ü In a construction zone, on the stage, in the lobby, at the reception desk, in a
conference, in the forest, on a boat/ship/plane/bus/train/plane/subway, in the
lift/elevator/escalator, on the street/road/avenue/ , in a supermarket, in an art
museum, in the gallery, in the swimming pool, on the sidewalk, in the field, in
the warehouse/laboratory/ garage/factory, at sea, on the beach, at the dockÉ.. ¥ Who are they?
ü A man, men, a woman, women, a child, children, people, they, he, she, a
couple, a little boy, a girl, a baby, the group, the family, ÉÉ
ü (Is there a uniform or piece of equipment or anything else that indicates their
profession or role? ) a chef, a repairman, a tour guide, an office worker, a
receptionist, a clerk, a student, shop assistant, clerk, customer, driver,
passengers, commuter, pedestrian, policeman, worker, laborer, waiter, waitress,
¥ What distinguishes them? (Is there a hat, a mustache, a purse, a pair of
glasses, a tie, or anything else that differentiates the people?)
¥ What do the peopleÕs expressions tell you? (Do they look happy?
Unhappy? Excited? Bored? Upset?)
3. If you are previewing a photograph of an object, focus on these aspects: ¥ What is it? Listening level 4 3 Duy Tan University ¥ What is it made of?
¥ What Ð if anything Ð is it doing? ¥ Where is it?
4. If you are previewing a photograph of scene, focus on these aspects: ¥ Where is it?
¥ What is in the foreground( the front of the picture)
¥ WhatÑif anything Ð is happening?
¥ What is in the background (the ÒdistantÓ part of the picture)?
5. DonÕt mark an answer until you have heard all four choices. When you hear a
choice that you think is correct, rest your pencil on that oval on your answer
sheet. If you change your mind and hear a sentence that you think is better,
move your pencil to that choice. Once you have heard all four sentences, mark
the oval that your pencil is resting on. (This technique helps you remember
which choice you think is best.)
6. Try to eliminate choices with problems in meaning, sound, and sound +
meaning. (There is more information about recognizing these problems in the main part of this lesson.)
7. Most correct answers involve verbs in the simple present (ÒThe furniture looks
new.Ó) or present progressive tense (ÒThe woman is riding a bicycle.Ó) Be
suspicious of answer choices involving any other tenses.
8. Never leave any blanks. Always guess before going on to the next item.
9. As soon as you have finished marking the answer, stop looking at and thinking
about that photograph and move on to the next item. Preview Test Part 1
Start the audio program and read along as the directions are read.
Directions: For each item, there is a photograph in the book and four short sentences
about it on the audio program. The sentences are not written out, so you must listen carefully.
You must choose the one sentence - (A), (B), (C) or (D) Ð that best describes what can
be seen in the photograph, then mark the correct answer. Listening level 4 4 Duy Tan University Look at the example You see this photograph: Listen to the four sentences:
Choice (C) Ð ÒHe is waving to someoneÓ
is the best description of what can be seen in the photograph. 1. Listening level 4 5 Duy Tan University 2. 3. Listening level 4 6 Duy Tan University 4.
B. Sentences with Meaning Problems
This is the most common type of distractor. Sentences of this type in some way
contradict what is seen in the photograph. Some common types of meaning
problems are listed below, but many other types are heard during the test. Meaning problem Example
1. The sentence misrepresents the
The photograph shows a man eating in a location.
hospital bed. The sentence says, ÒHeÕs eating out at a restaurant.Ó
2. The sentence misrepresents the
The photograph shows peoples in light
photographÕs ÒenvironmentÓ.
clothing sitting in the sun. The sentence
says, ÒItÕs cold and rainy todayÓ.
3. The sentence misrepresents the
The photograph shows a car parked spatial arrangement.
behind a fence. The sentence says ÒThe
car is in front of the fenceÓ
4. The sentence misrepresents a
The photograph shows a person writing a personÕs activity.
note. The sentence says ÒSheÕs reading from her notebook.
5. The sentence misrepresents a
The photograph shows people in an
personÕs facial expression or Òbody audience with interested and attentive language.Ó
expressions. The sentence says ÒThey
seem to be bored by what theyÕre seeing.Ó Listening level 4 7 Duy Tan University 6. The sentence assigns
The photograph shows a tall man wearing
characteristics of one person or
a hat and a shorter man with glasses. The
thing to another person or thing.
sentence says, ÒThe tall man is wearing glasses.Ó
7. The sentence misidentifies an

8. The sentence identifies people in a The photograph shows a swimming pool. scene with no people.
The sentence says, ÒThe pool is crowded with swimmers today.Ó
9. The sentence misidentifies the

on a stone wall. The sentence says, ÒThe wall is made of wood.Ó
10. The sentence misidentifies a

the background. The sentence says, ÒThe
man is talking on the telephone.Ó Exercise 1.2
Focus: Identifying distractors involving errors in meaning and recognizing sentences with correct meanings.
Directions: Look at each of the photographs below. You will hear a number of
sentences describing each one. Decide if the sentence is true (T) or false (F) according
to what you see in the picture. There may be more than one true sentence about each
photograph, or there may be no true sentences. Now start the audio program 1. Listening level 4 8 Duy Tan University 2. 3. Listening level 4 9 Duy Tan University 4.
C. Sentences with sound problems
These sentences test your ability to distinguish similar-sounding words. These words
may rhyme (pile and file, for example) or they may sound alike in other ways (car and
card, for example, or lock and lake). HereÕs an example: The photograph shows a man
taking a letter out of a file. The spoken sentence says, ÒHeÕs taking the letter from the
pile.Ó To avoid choosing the incorrect answer, you must be able to hear the difference between pile and file.
Remember: If you hear a sentence with a sound Ðalike word, that sentence is not the right answer.
Also remember that if you hear a sentence that seems strange or unrelated to what you
see in the photograph, it probably involves a sound problem, even if that problem is
not clear to you. These sentences will not be the correct answers. Exercise 1.3
Focus: Identifying distractors involving sound problems and recognizing correct answers.
Directions: There are two parts to this exercise. For Part A, look at the photographs
and listen to the sentences Ð (A) and (B) Ð about them. Mark the letter of the sentence
that best describes what can be seen in the photograph. Listening level 4 10 Duy Tan University Part A Now start the audio program. 1. 2. Listening level 4 11 Duy Tan University 3. 4.

PART 1: PHOTOGRAPHS (2)
A. Sentences with Sound and Meaning Problems
This type of item is more common than those involving sound problems. A sentence
of this type contains a sound-alike word, but the sentence is also an inaccurate
description of what can be seen in the photograph. For example, a photograph shows a
man putting a lock on his bicycle. One sentence says, ÒHeÕs blocking the path.Ó
Another sentence says, ÒHeÕs swimming in the lakeÓ. In the first sentence, blocking
sounds like locking, and in the second sentence, lake sounds like lock. Neither
sentence describes what is happening in the picture.
Sentence of this type can be eliminated by either the sound-like word or the incorrect meaning. Exercise 1.4 Part A Now start the audio program 1. Listening level 4 15 Duy Tan University 2. 3.
