Pregunta 1

Bloom: Remember

Lucia listens to a school announcement about a timetable change for Friday sports.

You hear: Attention please. Friday training moves to Thursday at five in the main hall. What detail did you catch?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: B) All sports training is cancelled this week.

  • A) Sports training moves to Thursday at five.Correct! Moving training from Friday to Thursday at five is the stated detail, so Friday free correctly captures the announced change.
  • B) All sports training is cancelled this week.The idea that training is cancelled all week fails because only Friday changes, while Thursday keeps the session at the stated time.
  • C) Sports training moves to Saturday morning.The idea that training moves to Saturday fails because Saturday is never mentioned, while Thursday at five is clearly announced.
  • D) Sports training stays on Friday as usual.The idea that training stays on Friday fails because the speaker explicitly moves it, so keeping Friday contradicts the announcement.

💡 Explicación

Listening for specific details means catching numbers, days, and places exactly as spoken, then ignoring similar sounding distractors that change one small element.

Pregunta 2

Bloom: Understand

Diego listens to a short airport message about a delayed flight to London.

You hear: Flight to London delayed forty minutes. Please wait near gate twelve. What should passengers infer?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: D) The departure gate changed to number twenty.

  • A) Passengers must board immediately now.The idea that the flight is boarding now fails because a forty minute delay contradicts immediate boarding at the stated gate.
  • B) The London flight is fully cancelled today.The idea that the flight is cancelled fails because delayed with a new time means waiting, not a full cancellation of travel.
  • C) Passengers should wait at gate twelve longer.Correct! A forty minute delay to gate twelve means waiting there, so staying near the gate correctly follows the announcement.
  • D) The departure gate changed to number twenty.The idea that the gate changed to twenty fails because twelve is the announced gate, and twenty twists that heard detail.

💡 Explicación

Flight announcements hide key facts in polite formulas. Focus on flight number, new time, and gate to infer what passengers must do next.

Pregunta 3

Bloom: Understand

Sara listens to a voicemail where a friend says she will bring dessert but not drinks.

You hear: I will bring the chocolate cake, but I cannot carry drinks. What can be inferred?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: A) She will bring dessert and cold drinks.

  • A) She will bring dessert and cold drinks.The idea that she brings both dessert and drinks fails because she explicitly excludes drinks, keeping only the dessert promise.
  • B) Someone else must provide the drinks.Correct! Bringing cake but no drinks means the host must supply drinks, which correctly infers responsibility from the heard detail.
  • C) She cannot attend the party at all.The idea that she cannot come at all fails because confirming dessert proves attendance, which contradicts any absence claim.
  • D) She will arrive two hours late tonight.The idea that she will arrive very late fails because no time delay is mentioned, only the clear division of party items.

💡 Explicación

Everyday messages test negative details. Hearing what is included and what is excluded helps you infer who must bring the missing items.

Pregunta 4

Bloom: Apply

Pablo listens to a weather report predicting morning sun and evening storms in Seville.

You hear: Sunny morning, storms after seven in Seville. What is the best plan a listener can infer?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: C) Expect heavy snow throughout the day.

  • A) Plan a picnic at eight in the evening.The idea of a picnic at eight in the evening fails because storms are forecast then, making late outdoor eating an unsafe choice.
  • B) Go for a walk in the morning instead.Correct! Morning sun with evening storms logically suggests an early outing, so the morning walk correctly applies the forecast.
  • C) Expect heavy snow throughout the day.The idea that it will snow all day fails because sun and storms in Seville heat contradict any snow prediction completely.
  • D) Leave all umbrellas at home today.The idea of leaving umbrellas at home fails because evening storms make umbrellas necessary, so leaving them contradicts the warning.

💡 Explicación

Weather forecasts require linking time phrases to advice. Morning sun plus evening storms implies planning outdoor acts early and shelter later.

Pregunta 5

Bloom: Analyze

Carmen listens to a shop dialogue where a customer complains the shoes are too tight.

You hear: These are too tight. Do you have a thirty nine? What does the customer most likely want?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: A) She loves the shoes as they are.

  • A) She loves the shoes as they are.The idea that she loves the shoes fails because calling them too tight and requesting another size shows clear dissatisfaction with fit.
  • B) She wants a full money refund now.The idea that she wants her money back fails because asking for a bigger size seeks exchange, not a full refund.
  • C) She wants to exchange for a larger size.Correct! Complaining about tight fit and asking for the next size implies she wants an exchange, which fits the heard request.
  • D) She will keep the tight shoes gladly.The idea that she will keep the tight pair fails because requesting another size rejects keeping them, seeking comfort instead.

💡 Explicación

Complaint dialogues imply solutions. Too tight plus asking for a bigger size signals the inferred next step is an exchange, not a refund.

Pregunta 6

Bloom: Understand

Hugo listens to a train conductor announcing the next stop and a five minute wait.

Fill the gap from listening. Next stop Valladolid. We wait five minutes. Passengers should ___.

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: C) This train ends its journey here today.

  • A) Stay seated until Valladolid in five minutes.Correct! Next stop Valladolid with a five minute pause means staying seated briefly, which correctly uses both heard details.
  • B) Get off the train immediately right now.The idea that passengers must get off now fails because the stop is next, not current, so immediate exit misreads the timing.
  • C) This train ends its journey here today.The idea that the train ends its journey fails because next stop implies continuation, not the final end of the line.
  • D) Expect a one hour stop at the station.The idea that the wait lasts one hour fails because five minutes is stated, and one hour greatly twists that short duration.

💡 Explicación

Transport messages combine place and duration. Catching the station name plus five minutes tells listeners whether to hurry or stay seated calmly.

Pregunta 7

Bloom: Apply

Elena listens to a doctor message asking a patient to fast before a morning blood test.

You hear: No food after midnight, please, before your eight o clock blood test. What must the patient do?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: D) Arrive without having eaten any food.

  • A) Eat a big breakfast before the test.The idea of eating a big breakfast fails because fasting explicitly forbids food, so breakfast would ruin the blood test results.
  • B) Skip the appointment completely tomorrow.The idea of skipping the appointment fails because the message confirms the test, asking for preparation rather than cancellation.
  • C) Bring a sandwich to eat in the lab.The idea of bringing a sandwich for the lab fails because food is banned before the test, though a snack after may be sensible.
  • D) Arrive without having eaten any food.Correct! No food after midnight before a morning test means arriving with an empty stomach, which correctly applies the instruction.

💡 Explicación

Instructional listening turns orders into actions. Fasting before a morning test means no breakfast, only water, to keep results accurate.

Pregunta 8

Bloom: Analyze

Marco listens to two friends planning cinema tickets where one says the seven show is sold out.

You hear: Seven is sold out, but nine still has seats. Shall we try nine? What will they likely do?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: B) They will cancel the cinema plan fully.

  • A) They will watch the seven o clock show.The idea of watching the seven show fails because sold out means no seats, so insisting on seven contradicts the heard fact.
  • B) They will cancel the cinema plan fully.The idea of cancelling cinema plans fails because proposing the nine show keeps the plan alive with a new time.
  • C) They will choose the nine o clock show.Correct! Seven sold out but nine available implies choosing the later show, which correctly infers the alternative plan.
  • D) They will watch a completely different film.The idea of watching a different film fails because they only discuss times for the same film, never a new title.

💡 Explicación

Planning conversations imply alternatives when the first choice fails. Sold out at seven plus suggesting nine leads logically to the later show.

Pregunta 9

Bloom: Evaluate

Lucia hears two endings for a museum audio guide and must pick the one matching the heard dates.

Choose the better summary. You hear: Opened in eighteen ninety five, modern wing added in two thousand ten. Which fits?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: C) Opened in 1995 as a science centre.

  • A) Opened in 1895, modern art added later.Correct! Eighteen ninety five opening with modern art added later exactly matches the guide, making this the valid inferred summary.
  • B) Opened in 1859 with ancient coins only.The idea of eighteen fifty nine fails because it shifts the opening back forty years, twisting the clearly heard date.
  • C) Opened in 1995 as a science centre.The idea of nineteen ninety five fails because it moves the opening forward a century, contradicting the nineteenth century detail.
  • D) It is really a sports museum today.The idea of a sports museum fails because modern art is the stated focus, not football or athletic history at all.

💡 Explicación

Detail traps copy years with small changes. The correct inference keeps eighteen ninety five exact, while wrong options shift the century or decade.

Pregunta 10

Bloom: Analyze

Andres listens to a teacher who says the exam starts at nine sharp with no late entry.

You hear: The exam begins at nine sharp. Latecomers cannot enter. What must listeners conclude?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: A) Students may arrive at half past nine.

  • A) Students may arrive at half past nine.The idea of arriving at half past nine fails because no late entry bans that delay, making late arrival equal to failure.
  • B) The exam has been cancelled this week.The idea that the exam is cancelled fails because starting at nine sharp confirms it happens, with strict timing rather than cancellation.
  • C) Students may chat freely during the test.The idea that students may chat during the test fails because sharp formal exams forbid talking, contradicting any permission to chat.
  • D) Students must arrive before nine o clock.Correct! No late entry after nine sharp implies arriving before nine, so early arrival correctly infers the rule consequence.

💡 Explicación

Strict rule announcements imply consequences. Nine sharp with no late entry means arriving early is required and late arrival equals missing the test.

Pregunta 11

Bloom: Understand

Noa listens to a radio advert saying the gym offers two months free for students in January.

You hear: Students joining in January train free for two months. What is the exact offer?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: D) January membership costs double the price.

  • A) Students joining in January get two free months.Correct! Two months free for students in January means showing student ID that month correctly captures every heard condition.
  • B) Everyone gets free gym access all year long.The idea that everyone gets free membership all year fails because students only and January only strictly limit the generous offer.
  • C) The gym is closing down next January.The idea that the gym is closing fails because promotions attract members, which contradicts any closing down message.
  • D) January membership costs double the price.The idea that January costs double fails because free is the opposite of double price, twisting the offer completely.

💡 Explicación

Advert listening separates offer, target, and limit. Two months free for students in January only means timing and identity both matter for the deal.

Pregunta 12

Bloom: Apply

Irene listens to a hotel receptionist explaining breakfast ends at ten and checkout is at twelve.

You hear: Breakfast until ten, checkout at twelve, please. What should the guest infer and do?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: B) Leave the room at ten sharp today.

  • A) Eat breakfast at eleven in the room.The idea of breakfast at eleven fails because service ends at ten, so eleven misses food by a full hour.
  • B) Leave the room at ten sharp today.The idea of checkout at ten fails because twelve is checkout, while ten is only the breakfast limit, confusing the two times.
  • C) Skip breakfast to prepare for checkout.The idea of skipping breakfast for checkout fails because both fit easily before twelve, so no sacrifice is logically needed.
  • D) Eat before ten and check out by twelve.Correct! Eating before ten and leaving the room by twelve orders both deadlines correctly, showing full understanding of times.

💡 Explicación

Hotel briefings chain two times together. Breakfast by ten and checkout by twelve imply ordering the morning so neither deadline is missed.

Pregunta 13

Bloom: Evaluate

Tomas hears a job advert asking for weekend availability and basic English for a cafe post.

Identify who should apply. You hear: Weekend help needed, basic English required, cafe experience welcome. Who fits best?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: D) Free weekends and basic English skills.

  • A) Only weekday mornings, no English spoken.The idea that weekday only applicants fit fails because weekend availability is required, so weekday only contradicts the core need.
  • B) Expert chef with a cooking degree only.The idea that cooking degrees are required fails because basic English and availability are stated, not professional cooking diplomas.
  • C) Remote work from home every weekend.The idea that the job is fully remote fails because cafe service is in person on weekends, contradicting any home working claim.
  • D) Free weekends and basic English skills.Correct! Weekend free with basic English matches both stated needs, so this applicant profile correctly fits the cafe post.

💡 Explicación

Job adverts imply fit through requirements. Weekend availability plus basic English means weekday only or no English applicants should not apply.

Pregunta 14

Bloom: Analyze

Julia listens to a customer service call where the agent spells an address with double letters.

You hear: Calle Verde, Verde with double e, number thirteen. Which written address is correct?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: C) Calle Verde number thirty, double e.

  • A) Calle Verda number thirteen, single e.The idea of Calle Verda without double e fails because the agent stresses double e, so single e misspells the heard address.
  • B) Calle Verde number thirteen, double e.Correct! Calle Verde with double e and number thirteen captures the spelling detail exactly as the agent dictated it.
  • C) Calle Verde number thirty, double e.The idea of number thirty fails because thirteen and thirty sound similar but the stressed thirteen is the true detail.
  • D) Avenida Verde number thirteen, double e.The idea of Avenida Verde fails because Calle is the street type stated, and Avenida changes that important detail.

💡 Explicación

Spelling listening catches double letters and numbers exactly. Calle Verde thirteen with double e implies writing every letter carefully for delivery.

Pregunta 15

Bloom: Evaluate

Alba listens to a coach who says training is outdoors unless it rains heavily.

You hear: We train outside unless heavy rain falls. It drizzles today. What should players infer?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: B) Light rain means training is cancelled.

  • A) Training is always indoors in winter.The idea that training is always indoors fails because outdoors is the default, with indoors only as a heavy rain exception.
  • B) Light rain means training is cancelled.The idea that training is cancelled for drizzle fails because only heavy rain changes place, so light rain keeps outdoor practice.
  • C) Train outside in light rain with boots.Correct! Bringing boots for wet grass but training outside correctly applies the unless heavy rain condition to light rain.
  • D) There is no training all winter long.The idea of no training all winter fails because weather conditionals continue all season, not cancel the whole winter program.

💡 Explicación

Conditional sports messages imply checking weather first. Outdoors unless heavy rain means light rain still trains outside with proper clothing.

Bruno listens to a library audio where borrowing three books allows three weeks for return.

You hear: Three books, three weeks from today. Borrowed on the fifth, when must they return?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: A) Keep the books for three long months.

  • A) Keep the books for three long months.The idea of keeping books for three months fails because weeks not months are stated, stretching the limit far beyond permission.
  • B) Return them on the twenty sixth if taken on the fifth.Correct! Borrowed on the fifth, three weeks later is the twenty sixth, which correctly calculates the heard loan period.
  • C) Return all the books tomorrow morning.The idea of returning them tomorrow fails because three weeks allow much longer use, making immediate return unnecessary.
  • D) Borrow twenty books at the same time.The idea of borrowing unlimited books fails because three is the stated maximum, so unlimited contradicts the clear rule.

💡 Explicación

Rule listening links quantity to time limits. Three books for three weeks means counting return dates from the borrowing day, not the calendar month.

Pregunta 17

Bloom: Analyze

Vega listens to a friend whose voice sounds tired as she says the exam went endlessly long.

You hear, in a tired voice: That exam felt endless. What feeling can be inferred from tone and words?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: C) She feels angry at her teacher.

  • A) She feels excited and full of energy.The idea that she feels excited fails because a tired voice with endless suggests fatigue, which contradicts energetic excitement completely.
  • B) She feels exhausted but relieved it ended.Correct! Tired voice plus endless exam implies exhaustion and quiet relief at finishing, which best reads vocal and verbal clues.
  • C) She feels angry at her teacher.The idea that she is angry at the teacher fails because no blame appears, only fatigue about length, not personal anger.
  • D) She wants to take another exam now.The idea that she wants another exam now fails because exhaustion seeks rest, which is the opposite of wanting more tests.

💡 Explicación

Voice plus word choice reveals feelings. A tired voice calling an exam endless implies exhaustion and relief that it finished, not joy or anger.

Pregunta 18

Bloom: Evaluate

Dario listens to a news flash where the speaker warns of a strike and suggests working from home.

Correct the false report. You hear: Bus strike tomorrow, work from home if possible. Which summary is accurate?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: D) Ignore the warning and travel normally.

  • A) Stay home tomorrow and email the boss.Correct! Strike plus work from home advice implies staying home and emailing the boss, which correctly combines warning and suggestion.
  • B) Travel early by bus to the office.The idea of travelling early by bus fails because strike disrupts buses, so travel contradicts the stay home recommendation.
  • C) Schools will close for a whole month.The idea that schools close for a month fails because one day strike is stated, stretching it to a month twists the detail.
  • D) Ignore the warning and travel normally.The idea of ignoring the warning fails because explicit advice to stay home makes ignoring it careless and illogical.

💡 Explicación

Warning messages imply preventive action. A transport strike tomorrow plus work from home advice means avoiding travel and informing the office early.

Pregunta 19

Bloom: Evaluate

Nora listens to a podcast where the host compares two phones and recommends the cheaper battery king.

You hear: Model A costs more but dies fast. Model B is cheaper and lasts two days. For a student, which is inferred best?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: A) Buy the expensive model with short battery.

  • A) Buy the expensive model with short battery.The idea of buying the expensive weak battery model fails because short battery contradicts the stated priority of long life.
  • B) Both phones are exactly the same today.The idea that both phones are identical fails because price and battery differences are stressed, proving they are not the same.
  • C) Wait one year for a future model.The idea of waiting for a future model fails because the recommendation is immediate for current needs, not delayed purchase.
  • D) Buy the cheaper model with long battery.Correct! Cheaper with longer battery fits a student needing endurance, so this recommendation correctly applies the comparison.

💡 Explicación

Comparison listening weighs criteria. When battery matters most and the cheaper model lasts longer, value plus need point to the affordable choice.

Pregunta 20

Bloom: Evaluate

Iker listens to a complex station message with platform change and a connecting train delay.

Order the logic. You hear: Madrid train now platform nine, not seven. Connection delayed ten minutes. What should you do?

Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.

Ver respuesta

Respuesta correcta: B) The connecting train is fully cancelled tonight.

  • A) Wait at platform seven as originally planned.The idea of waiting at platform seven fails because the change to nine is explicit, so staying put misses the departing train.
  • B) The connecting train is fully cancelled tonight.The idea that the connection is cancelled fails because delayed ten minutes means waiting briefly, not losing the connection entirely.
  • C) Leave the station and take a taxi home.The idea of leaving the station fails because both trains still run with small changes, so exit abandons a workable journey.
  • D) Move to platform nine, connection delayed ten minutes.Correct! Moving to platform nine while knowing the connection waits ten minutes combines both changed details into correct action.

💡 Explicación

Multi detail messages demand tracking two changes at once. Platform nine instead of seven plus ten minute connection delay means moving fast but not panicking.
