Detailed Instructions for IELTS Listening Multiple Choice Questions

Multiple Choice Questions frequently appear in IELTS Listening Test Parts 2, 3, and 4. Only one of the three (occasionally four) response options provided for these questions is the right one. In the IELTS listening exam, there are three different kinds of multiple-choice questions.

1. With only one viable response.

2. With numerous options, each worth one point.

3. With different options and one point for each. You might be given the beginning of a sentence for these questions, and you’ll need to finish it using one of four or more options. Or you can be asked to choose two, three, or four items from a list of options to answer a question.

Techniques to Remember

• Carefully read the instructions and determine how many letters you need to circle.
• Before the recording begins, rapidly skim the questions and the possible answers.
• The terms that provide you with the best information, such as the “wh-” words and nouns, should be highlighted.
• Pay close attention to the introduction spoken.
• As you listen, respond to the questions. Indent the letters. Even if it can be phrased in a different way, the data will be provided in the same sequence as the questions.
• If you are unsure about the answer, don’t forget to add notes next to the question so you may review them later.
• Don’t fail to respond to any questions.
• Actively listen while excluding the improbable responses.
