ELTIS Listening to Announcements and Instructions Practice Test 11

Question 1

You hear: 'The spring concert will be held in the auditorium on May 15 at 7:00 PM. Doors open at 6:30 PM. Admission is free, but donations to the music department are appreciated.' When do the doors open?

Accepted Answer

6:30 PM.

Answer

The announcement states: 'Doors open at 6:30 PM.' This is 30 minutes before the concert begins at 7:00 PM. Arriving when doors open gives attendees time to find good seats and settle in. The concert is free, though donations are welcomed.

Question 2

A teacher says: 'For the science fair, your project must include a hypothesis, an experiment, data collection, and a conclusion. Display boards must be set up by 8 AM on the day of the fair. Late set-ups will not be allowed.' What time must display boards be ready?

Accepted Answer

By 8 AM.

Answer

The teacher states: 'Display boards must be set up by 8 AM on the day of the fair.' This is a firm deadline with 'no late set-ups allowed.' Students need to arrive early enough to have everything arranged and ready before the 8 AM cutoff time.

Question 3

You hear: 'The school nurse reminds all students taking daily medication that medications must be stored in the nurse's office, not in lockers or backpacks. Parents must provide written authorization for the nurse to administer medication.' Where must medications be stored?

Accepted Answer

In the nurse's office.

Answer

The announcement states: 'Medications must be stored in the nurse's office, not in lockers or backpacks.' This is a safety policy ensuring medications are properly stored, tracked, and administered. Written parental authorization is also required, providing an extra layer of safety and accountability.

Question 4

A teacher says: 'The final exam will cover everything we've learned this semester. However, I've identified five key topics that make up about 70% of the exam. I've listed them on the board. Focus your studying on those five topics.' What should students focus their studying on?

Accepted Answer

The five key topics listed on the board.

Answer

The teacher says to 'focus your studying on those five topics' that are listed on the board and make up about 70% of the exam. While the exam covers everything, strategically focusing on the highest-value topics is efficient studying. This is helpful test preparation advice.

Question 5

You hear: 'Due to budget cuts, the after-school tutoring program will be reduced from five days to three days per week — Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The hours remain the same: 3:30 to 5:00 PM.' What changed about the tutoring program?

Accepted Answer

It went from five days to three days per week.

Answer

The announcement states the program 'will be reduced from five days to three days per week.' Specifically, tutoring will now be available on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday only, instead of every day. The hours (3:30-5:00 PM) remain unchanged. Budget cuts necessitated this reduction.
