EXAM STRATEGIES

The Szccess Workbook, provides practice u'rthesercise types found in exams including PET, KET,FCE and Trinity. These exercises are graded toelementary level to help students famrliarrsethemselves with the exercise t5,pes. Page numbersu-here these exercises appear are next to each tasktrpe. Mosl exams consist of a listeningcomprehension, a reading comprehension,grammar exercises/Use of English and (a) r.lritingtask(s). The Success Workbook inciudes exercisesthat wi11help you to prepare for all these. Followthese to help you do particular task t1pes.

Listening comprehension

General guidelinss

Always. read the inslrucl ions carefully before

list-enLng to a recorcling for the first trne.Tly to predict what kind of information youmioht harr

. look aL Lhe questions and mark your answerswhen listening for the l'irst time.

. read Lhrough all the queslions again beforethe second listening, in parlicular, thequestions you didn't answer during the firstirslerunp.

Don't. panic if you don't understand every'1hing. You

don't have to understand the whole text tobe able to lind the correct answers lo a

question. Tfy to gel the main idea of a textand work out the meaning of words you don'tknow lrom the contexl.

. spend Loo much time Lhinking aboulqueslions you are nol able to answer - youcan come back to those during your secondIsterung.

. leave any questions unanswered. If you arenot surc - guess. You have a fifty percentchance of getting it right! In class, ask yourteacher for the correct answers. Il they differa lot from yours, listen to the recording oncemore to analyse the reason for your mistake.

Thue/False exercises (page22, exercise 2). Remember that you will hear the questions/

sentences in the order you hear them.o When deciding whether a sentence is true or

false, take into account what you actualiy hearand not what you know or think.

o A sentence/question at the very end may refer toa speaker's intention or the generai context. Inoeneral it is imnnrtant to refer to the wholeDLr LL r ur,

recordmg.

Multiple-choice exercises(page 37, exercise 1). Remember that you will hear the questions/

sentences in the order you hear them.. While listening for the first time, make notes of

suggested answers. Then compare them to thechoices you have been given and choose themost similar.

. Be careful with answers that sound exactly thesame as the information in the recording. Theyare often incorrect. Pay special attention tos)monyrns and anton5.ans.

. Sometimes the information needed to answer aquestion is not drrectly given, you may have towork il out on the basis of what you have heard.If you are not sure which answer is correct, tryto choose it by eliminating the incorrect answers.

Matching exercises (page 51, exercise 1)o If you have to find out who a person is or where

a recording lakes place, concentrate on typicalphrases which relate to the person or place.Sometimes one characteristrc phrase will helpyou choose the right answer.

. If an exercise is about matching a passage/text/headline to a summarising sentence or a title, tryto summarise the main idea yourself and chooseone of the given answers on that basis.

. If an exercise is about deciding on the t),pe oftext, pay special attention to expressions thatare characteristic to a particular tlpe of a text.

Sentence or information ordering(page 93, exercise 3)o If you have to put events in chronological order,

listen out for time expressions (and then, nert,JCnaIIy, in the end ...).

. If you have to put events in the order theyin t ha lictaa jn6 .nnnontrrtA

^ndlJpfdl lll tllr llJtrlrrrrb, \vrr\ \ rrrrur\ vrl

underslanding a sequence of evenls.Understanding a logical connection betu'eenthem is not necessary to do this task.

. Use your general knowledge - it might help 1'oupredict a logical sequence of events.

Page 6: 54063174 Success Elementary WB

Reading comprehension

General guidelines

Alwayso t€atl the inslruclions before doing Lhe lask.

The lask will affect the way you readtha iavl

. Lry 1o work out what kind of text it is - itmay give you some ideas of what to expect.

. read key informarion firsL. A title helps todecide on a general idea of a text and thefirst senlence o[ each paragraph oftensummarises the whole paragraph.

. underline parts of the text relevanL Lo thequestions (single words, phrases, sentences,paragraphs)

Don't. try to understand every single word of a text.

You don't have to know all Lhe words Lo

answer the questions. You may be able toguess the meanirg of new words uslngdifferent techniques {guessing from thecontext, guessing a word based on itsgrarnmatical form, simiiarifi,' of the word inyour own language).

o leave any questions unanswered, if you arenol sure - guess! Always check if you haveanswered all of the questions.

. spend loo much time on one specificexercise - your time in the exam is limited.

Thue/False exereises (page 15, exercise 2). Skim the text first to get a general idea of where

the information is.. Different sentences nell require different reading

strategies. For example, you may need to focuson just one phrase or you may need to interpretthe meaning of a whole text.

. If you don't find informati.on confirming that aparticular sentence is true, mark it as false.

Multiple choiee exercises(page 9, exercise 3). Identify the parts of the text that your questions

refer to.o Focus on the detail of a paragraph or sentence.

An incorrect answer may only differ from thecorrect one in lhe tense that is used, slightlydifferent information or information that onlypartly corresponds with the text.

r Eliminate incorrect answers and then mark yourfinal answer.

Matching exercises (page 42, exercise 3)r While matching headlines to a text, pay attention

to the main idea of a text. Always read all thetitles first and then match them to the relevantparts of the text.

. While matching questions to a text, try to findlhe risht nl:ce in the text where there is ananswer lo a parlicular queslion.

. Remember that this kind of exercise may include(an) extra sentence(s), so you will have toehminate unnecessary items.

Gap-fill exercises (page 70, exercise 2). Skim the text first to get its general meaning,

ionorinB the sans Then read the sentences orwords which are needed to frll the gaps.

r When you select your answers, pa)- attention towhat is in the text both before and after the gap.

Sentence or information ordering(page 92, exercise 3). While doing this kind of exercise, try to flnd

sentences or paragraphs which have to beplaced aL lhe beginnhg. Look ou1 lorexpressions typically used when rntroducing atopic or a character.

. Focus on linking words (then,fCnally,nert ...).These words will give you a clue to the order.

o You may not need to study a whole paragraph.Focus on sentences/words that will help you linksentences/paragraphs.

. Make sure the last paragraph,/sentencesummarises the whole text or provides a logicalconclusion.

Writing

You may be required to write a short, practicalpiece of writing such as a note, an email,an invitation, an advertisement and/or a longer,practical piece of rnriting, for example a formal orinJormal letter, a story or a discursive text. TheSuccess Workbook will help you prepare for thesetlpes of writing tasks. Remember that the examtechniques that you learn even at elementary levelwill help you pass exams successfully in the future.

Speaking

The Success Workbook will also prepare you fororal exams. The techniques below will help you topass your exam successfully.

o Try to stick to the aim of the task. Always keepthe question in mind when answering.

. Do not panic if you cannot remember a word.Use a word that has a similar meaning or give adefinition or description of the word.

. If you do not understand what an examiner hassaid, ask him/her to repeat him/herself. You canalso repeat the information you have been givenand, in this way, you can make sure that youhave understood it correctly.

. If you are not ready with your answers and needtime to think, use conversational fillers orhesitation devices (uell, let me th,ink, erm, ... )r Avoid using the same words and structures -show that you have a varied vocabulary and canuse a range of grammar structures.

o If you are taking the exam with another person,make sure you listen as well as speak - don'tdominate the conversation.

half to have any chance in this match. The problem isthev haven't done much yet.

P They've scored one goal. They could score more.J Mmm. I think they were lucky. The Manchester players

are faster and better. I think the manager should changetwo players. The number 4, Smith, is too smail. Theyneed a taller, stronger man at the back.
