Let's try today a
LISTENING. This is for the FCE (B2) level.
The task is about an audio and you have 7 questions with multiple choice for
you to choose the correct answer. Pay attention to the listening and take notes
if you need it. The questions are in order (don't panic). You can hear the
recording TWICE. Please, play the record now. It will give you 1 minute to read the questions.
Tomorrow you will find the answers. Good luck!
