Two of the most frequently asked questions about the Listening Paper are the following:
Q1. Does it matter if I make a spelling mistake in my answer?
Unfortunately, yes! You must use the correct spelling throughout your answers in the Listening Paper or you will not get a mark for those questions where the spelling is wrong. However, the questions are designed so that the answers are not unnecessarily or unreasonably demanding as far as spelling is concerned.
Q2. What if there is background noise on the tape which makes it hard to hear the speakers?
Rest assured that the listening extracts will not contain any background noise during the time that the speakers are actually speaking. Occasionally, there will be the use of sound effects to introduce an extract and set the scene but these are not used during the actual speeches.
