Top 10 Tips for Listening & Reading
1. Read the question (including the introduction to the question which
gives you the context and sets the scene).
2. Expect unfamiliar language – be ready to ‘de-code’ – don’t give up!
3. Use the pauses in the recording to ‘re-play’ in your mind the
language you have just heard, slowing it down as you do so.
4. Use sound-spelling patterns to help you ‘visualise’ the spelling of
an unfamiliar word. It will often reveal itself as a cognate.
5. Look out for synonyms, cognates and near-cognates.
6. Look out for the number of marks for each question – this tells
you how many details you need to give.
7. Be aware of negative structures used to test you!
8. Consider the type of word (verb / noun / adjective etc.) you need
for gap-fills – the filled-in text must make sense grammatically.
9. Make sure you give enough details in the written answers. It is
fine to directly lift from the text but make sure what you have
said makes sense.
10.
Read the instructions carefully so you know whether to
answer in English or Spanish.

ENGLISH TO SPANISH
ADJECTIVES
As a general rule, an adjective comes after
the noun it describes.
The exceptions are adjectives that
describe amounts and adjectives that are
inherent and unchangeble (eg. the white
snow, the tall mountain).
Nationalities always add an ‘a’ for
feminine, no matter what the adjective
ends in.
Adjectives change to match the noun they
describe:
