• These questions align with the main idea of the recording, and you should ensure that your chosen answer makes sense within the context of the main theme.
• Focus on important facts rather than extremely specific details like numbers or names.
• Do not choose an answer only because it contains some of the words that were used in the conversation or lecture.
• When selecting your answer, exercise caution to avoid being misled by false friends. False friends are answer choices that incorporate keywords from the passage in a manner that seems correct but is not. They can either directly contradict the information in the passage or simply not make sense in the context.
