Correct Answer: Whether to take a summer road trip to Prince Edward Island.

Why this is correct: Speaker A asks about taking a road trip to Prince Edward Island. Speaker B reacts and they discuss timing, driving, and places to stay. The whole talk is about deciding on this trip.

Tips: Focus on the overall purpose of the conversation, not small details.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • Their past travel experiences in Canada.: They mention past travel only briefly. The focus is planning a new trip, not sharing old experiences.
  • Problems with booking summer holidays.: Booking problems come up later. They are not the main topic of the talk.
  • Moving to a new province permanently.: They never talk about moving. They only talk about a holiday.

Correct Answer: In late July.

Why this is correct: Speaker A clearly suggests a time. He says late July because the weather is warm but not too hot.

Tips: When you hear a date, connect it to who suggests it.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • In early June before school ends.: Early June is never mentioned in the talk.
  • During the August long weekend.: They do not talk about the August long weekend.
  • In October when it is quieter.: October is mentioned as a past visit, not for this trip.

Correct Answer: The long drive and feeling tired.

Why this is correct: Speaker B worries about the long drive from Toronto. He says he is concerned about being exhausted.

Tips: Early concerns often show the main worry.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • The cost of food in PEI.: Food cost is never discussed. Seafood is mentioned in a positive way.
  • Not liking beach holidays.: He likes beaches and sounds interested, not negative.
  • Having to cross a bridge.: The bridge is mentioned later as something exciting.

Correct Answer: Excited and ready to plan.

Why this is correct: By the end, Speaker B agrees and sounds happy. He says yes and suggests setting a budget and planning.

Tips: The last few lines often show final feelings.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • Worried about the budget.: Budget is mentioned calmly, not as a worry.
  • Still unsure and not ready to decide.: He clearly agrees and is no longer unsure.
  • Disappointed they are not flying.: Flying is never discussed as a problem.

Correct Answer: They agreed to go on the road trip and plan the details.

Why this is correct: Both speakers agree to go. They talk about planning, budgeting, and routes.

Tips: Inference questions need you to combine several lines.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • They chose a different destination in Quebec.: Quebec is only a stop, not the final destination.
  • They will only go if friends join them.: Friends are never mentioned as a condition.
  • They decided to delay planning until next year.: They plan to start now, not next year.
