Question Focus: The diagram shows the top part of the television where something is used to carry it.
Correct Answer: C
Passage Reference: This portable television is nearly 20 years old. It has a handle on the top for carrying it.
Why this is correct: The diagram points to the top of the television. The speaker clearly says there is a handle on the top for carrying it, so the answer is handle.
Common Mistake: Some students choose aerial because it is often on top of TVs. But the speaker never mentions an aerial. This is a distractor trap.
Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'handle on the top for carrying it' = Diagram: 'top part used to carry the TV'
Tips: When you hear a location like 'on the top', look at the matching place on the diagram.
Key Vocabulary:
- handle = something you hold
- portable = easy to carry
Question Focus: The diagram points to a control on the front at the top of the television.
Correct Answer: G
Passage Reference: There is a silver dial on the front at the top. I think it turns the television on and off.
Why this is correct: The speaker says there is a silver dial on the front at the top. This matches the position on the diagram, so the answer is dial.
Common Mistake: Students sometimes choose volume or channel select because these are also controls. But the speaker only names a dial, not its function. This is a partial truth trap.
Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'silver dial on the front at the top' = Diagram: 'front top control'
Tips: Listen for colour or shape words like 'silver' or 'round' to match the diagram.
Key Vocabulary:
- dial = round control
- front = the face of something
Question Focus: The diagram shows the large flat area on the front of the television.
Correct Answer: A
Passage Reference: The screen is on the front. That's still the same.
Why this is correct: The speaker directly says the screen is on the front. The diagram label points to that large area, so the answer is screen.
Common Mistake: Some students overthink and choose speaker because it is also on the front. But the speaker later says the speaker is under the dials, not here. This is a context shift trap.
Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'The screen is on the front' = Diagram: 'front display area'
Tips: If the speaker names something directly, trust it. Do not look for extra meaning.
Key Vocabulary:
- screen = display
- front = facing you
Question Focus: The diagram points to the area below the dials on the television.
Correct Answer: F
Passage Reference: There is a speaker under the dials.
Why this is correct: The speaker clearly says there is a speaker under the dials. The diagram shows that exact position, so the answer is speaker.
Common Mistake: Students may choose volume because sound is related to volume. But the question is about a part, not a control. This is a paraphrase trap.
Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'speaker under the dials' = Diagram: 'sound part below controls'
Tips: Check if the diagram wants a physical part or a control button.
Key Vocabulary:
- speaker = sound output
- under = below
Question Focus: The diagram shows an item that comes with the television, not attached to it.
Correct Answer: I
Passage Reference: The television comes with a small remote
Why this is correct: The speaker says the television comes with a small remote. This matches the separate object shown in the diagram, so the answer is remote.
Common Mistake: Some students choose mute button because it is related to a remote. But the speaker never mentions any buttons. This is a distractor trap.
Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'comes with a small remote' = Diagram: 'separate control device'
Tips: If something is not part of the main object, listen for phrases like 'comes with'.
Key Vocabulary:
- remote = control from a distance
- comes with = included
General Tips:
- Diagram labels usually follow the order of the recording. Move step by step as you listen.
- Listen carefully to location words like 'on the top', 'on the front', and 'under'.
- Do not choose an option just because it is related. Choose what the speaker actually names.
- Cross out options after you use them so you do not reuse the same word.
- The speaker may describe simple objects directly. Do not overthink easy questions.
