Correct Answer: its regular room was damaged by a leak
Passage Reference: its usual room has a leaking ceiling
Why this is correct: The citizenship class moved next door because its usual room has a leaking ceiling.
Tips: Use the reason the class was moved.
Why the other options are wrong:
- the choir reserved both rooms by mistake: The choir booking still stands in its own room.
- its members need to hear the choir practise: The class is not there to listen to the choir.
- the reading corner is closed for repairs: The reading corner is still available for the altos.
Correct Answer: reduce noise while the class concentrates
Passage Reference: more considerate than singing at full volume as soon as we arrive
Why this is correct: The whole message is about changing the rehearsal order, and this is its purpose. Asha explains that starting in sections keeps the noise down while the class next door works, and she calls this more considerate.
Tips: For the purpose of the message, ask what change the whole message is about and why Asha wants it.
Why the other options are wrong:
- let the class use the piano: The class is not using the piano.
- give the choir extra rehearsal time: The change is about order, not more time.
- keep the altos out of the library: The altos stay in the reading corner inside the library.
Correct Answer: practise without a piano
Passage Reference: the reading corner has no piano
Why this is correct: Asha supports the plan but notes the reading corner has no piano.
Tips: Name the missing equipment in that space.
Why the other options are wrong:
- practise too far away to use a phone: Tomas can send starting notes by phone.
- join the tenors for every section: Altos rehearse separately at first.
- practise without printed music: Asha will bring the printed scores.
Correct Answer: the full-group practice is still planned
Passage Reference: I do not want anyone to assume the final group practice has been cancelled
Why this is correct: Calling it a change in order stops people thinking the final group practice was cancelled.
Tips: Protect the meaning of the final group practice.
Why the other options are wrong:
- the class will leave before the choir arrives: The class is next door during the start.
- the library extended the choir booking: No extension is mentioned.
- the coordinator cancelled the first section: Section work is intentional, not cancelled.
Correct Answer: only if the final practice moves to the small hall
Passage Reference: I will put a sign on our usual door only if we actually move
Why this is correct: Asha will put a sign on the usual door only if they actually move.
Tips: The sign depends on an actual move.
Why the other options are wrong:
- before she knows whether the class runs late: The sign waits until a move is real.
- as soon as section rehearsals begin: Section work does not require a sign.
- if the altos cannot hear the phone recording: The sign is about location, not the recording.
Correct Answer: help members understand the revised sequence
Passage Reference: arrive ten minutes early to help explain the plan
Why this is correct: Tomas should arrive early to help explain the plan.
Tips: Early arrival supports explaining the new order.
Why the other options are wrong:
- decide whether the class should finish early: He does not control the class schedule.
- inspect the leak in the class's usual room: The leak is already known.
- move the library piano into the reading corner: No piano move is planned.
Correct Answer: entrances from the correct pitches
Passage Reference: They can practise the entrances without accompaniment
Why this is correct: Starting notes help the altos practise entrances without a piano.
Tips: Match the phone notes to alto entrances.
Why the other options are wrong:
- walk from the library entrance: That is about the small hall, not alto practice.
- final song with full accompaniment: Early practice is without the piano.
- written citizenship exercise: That is the class activity, not the altos task.
Correct Answer: is working quietly next door
Passage Reference: the class should be doing its quiet written exercise
Why this is correct: Lower volume helps while the class does quiet written work nearby.
Tips: The blank names what the class is doing.
Why the other options are wrong:
- repairs the leaking ceiling: The class is studying, not repairing.
- is moving its furniture outside: No furniture move is described.
- listens to the full choir: They start separately to avoid full volume.
Correct Answer: been removed from the plan
Passage Reference: not a shorter rehearsal
Why this is correct: Tomas will stress that rehearsal time has not been cut.
Tips: Reassure members that time remains.
Why the other options are wrong:
- been added to the booking: Nothing was added.
- been moved to the reading corner: Only the altos start there. The time stays the same.
- been assigned to the class: The booking remains the choir.
Correct Answer: posting it before the move is confirmed
Passage Reference: I will put a sign on our usual door only if we actually move
Why this is correct: The sign is only needed if they use the small hall, so posting early is pointless.
Tips: Avoid posting before the move is certain.
Why the other options are wrong:
- placing it on the choir usual door: That is where it goes if they move.
- using it to direct people to the hall: That is the signs purpose after a move.
- telling late arrivals about the longer walk: That is still useful if they move.
Correct Answer: continue in a considerate way
Passage Reference: Our booking still stands
Why this is correct: The plan protects the class while letting the choir keep its booking considerately.
Tips: End on keeping the booking in a considerate way.
Why the other options are wrong:
- provide a piano in both spaces: The reading corner has no piano.
- finish before the written exercise: They may combine later during that exercise.
- include the class as singers: The class is not joining the choir.
