Often the correct answer in Listening Part A is an answer that contains a restatement of the ideas in the second line of the conversation.
Example
On the recording, you hear:
(woman) : Steve, is something the matter? You don’t look veiy good.
(man) : Oh, I’m feeling a little sick today.
(narrator) : What does the man mean?
In your test book, you read:
(A) He’s not very good-looking.
(B) He’s a bit ill.
(C) He looks worse than he feels.
(D) His feet are a little thick.
In this conversation, sick means ill, and a little means a bit. The best answer to this question is therefore answer (B) because answer (B) restates the idea in the second line of the dialogue. Please note that answer (D) is definitely not a correct answer because it contains feet instead of feel and thick instead of sick. These words are similar in sound but not in meaning to the words that you hear on the recording.
