The skills tests include KET-type exercises which reflect the format of the KET exam. Listening tests
All the Listening tests re-use listenings from the Student’s
Book. Some students may remember the contexts of the
listenings, but they are very unlikely to remember the
detail, and the listening exercises are all KET-type tasks
which are different from the tasks that students have already done.

The Answer key for the tests starts on page 71. There are
separate keys for the A and B versions of the tests. 2
