Hướng dẫn làm phần nghe.

Các bài nghe sử dụng tại Trung tâm Đào tạo từ xa phỏng theo hệ của Cambridge, tức là thí sinh được nghe mỗi phần hai lần. Tuy nhiên, trong file âm thanh đính kèm, chúng tôi chỉ ghi âm MỘT lần. Thí sinh có thể dừng băng sau các phần nghe và tua lại từ đầu để nghe lại, và lưu ý chỉ nghe lại MỘT lần. Sau khi làm bài xong, thí sinh có thể nghe lại nhiều lần tùy thích để kiểm tra câu trả lời của mình
