How to answer this question type

For this item type, you need to respond to the question in a few words.

Things you need to remember:

  • Firstly, you should speak clearly and slowly

Your response is scored based on your comprehension ability of the question you’re given in the recording and also on how brief and accurate your response is. The appropriateness of the words in your response determines whether your response is right or wrong. No credit is provided if you don’t respond or if you respond incorrectly.
