Tips: For main idea questions, focus on the first speaker.

Why the other options are wrong:

• An increase in student tuition fees to pay for health services.: No one mentions increasing student fees. A tuition-fee increase is not the person on the left's proposal.
• Cancelling Welcome Back events to save money.: Cancelling Welcome Back events is not proposed.
• Building a new counselling centre on campus.: They never talk about building anything. The discussion is about funding services, not buildings.

Correct Answer: The person in the centre says students wait weeks for counselling, especially during midterms.

Why this is correct: The person in the centre says students wait weeks for counselling, particularly during midterms.

Tips: Follow the scope of the question and distinguish the stated point from other suggestions.

Why the other options are wrong:

• The person in the centre suggests students use off-campus services instead.: The person in the centre does not recommend off-campus services instead.
• The person in the centre thinks students have enough counselling options already.: The person in the centre describes unmet access, not sufficient options.
• The person in the centre believes the university should handle it without student union involvement.: The person in the centre does not argue against student involvement in funding.

Correct Answer: The person on the right is worried about the cost, since the budget is already tight after funding Welcome Back events.

Why this is correct: The person on the right says the person on the right worries about the cost. The person on the right explains the budget is already tight. This clearly shows concern about money.

Tips: Match details to the speaker who explains them. Listen carefully when a speaker says but or worried.

Why the other options are wrong:

• The person on the right is worried about students taking advantage of the service.: Student abuse of the service is not the person on the right's concern.
• The person on the right is worried that professors will object to the plan.: Professor opposition is not the person on the right's concern.
• The person on the right is worried that the quality of therapy will be poor.: The person on the right never talks about counsellor quality.

Correct Answer: Eighty thousand dollars for a one-year pilot.

Why this is correct: The discussion gives a proposed cost of about eighty thousand dollars for a one-year pilot. The amount and duration are both stated.

Tips: Check the amount and the period together when matching a cost estimate.

Why the other options are wrong:

• One hundred thousand dollars for two years.: The stated estimate is about eighty thousand for one year, rather than one hundred thousand for two years.
• Thirty thousand dollars for a summer trial.: Thirty thousand and a summer-only trial are not the estimate given.
• Fifty thousand dollars for one semester.: Fifty thousand and one semester are not the estimate given.

Correct Answer: Group therapy sessions only.

Why this is correct: The subsidy’s scope is stated directly: it would cover group therapy sessions and exclude unlimited one-on-one counselling. The contrast makes the group-only option complete.

Tips: Listen to the complete description before matching an option.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Both individual and group counselling equally.: The proposal explicitly excludes unlimited one-on-one counselling, so it does not cover individual and group counselling equally.
• Online therapy through a mobile app.: No mobile-app or online-therapy delivery model is proposed; the stated scope is group sessions.
• Unlimited one-on-one counselling sessions.: Unlimited one-on-one counselling is specifically the service that the proposal would not cover.

Correct Answer: The person on the right agrees provided that the results are reviewed after the pilot and it does not become a permanent expense automatically.

Why this is correct: The person on the right requires an end-of-pilot review so the subsidy does not become a permanent unevaluated expense.

Tips: Follow the scope of the question and distinguish the stated point from other suggestions.

Why the other options are wrong:

• The person on the right agrees only if the subsidy covers individual counselling.: The person on the right does not require individual counselling coverage.
• The person on the right agrees only if student tuition fees are increased.: A tuition increase is not the person on the right's condition.
• The person on the right agrees as long as Welcome Back events receive extra funding.: Extra Welcome Back funding is not the person on the right's condition.

Correct Answer: A session can help eight or ten students instead of just one.

Why this is correct: The person in the centre says a group session serves eight or ten students at once, making the per-student cost reasonable.

Tips: Follow the scope of the question and distinguish the stated point from other suggestions.

Why the other options are wrong:

• The university supplies therapists at no charge.: Free university therapists are not the person in the centre's economy argument.
• Participants pay the entire therapy fee themselves.: The person in the centre does not say participants cover the entire fee.
• Group therapists do not need professional qualifications.: The person in the centre does not say qualifications are unnecessary; the person in the centre contrasts helping eight or ten students with helping one.

Correct Answer: How many students use it and whether outcomes improve.

Why this is correct: The person on the right requests data on uptake and improved outcomes, rather than letting the expense continue without evaluation.

Tips: Follow the scope of the question and distinguish the stated point from other suggestions.

Why the other options are wrong:

• A provincial grant guarantee only.: A grant guarantee is not the evaluation evidence sought.
• Whether Welcome Back spending is cut in half.: Halving event spending is not an evaluation measure.
• Whether club membership fees rise.: Club fee increases are not the requested outcome evidence.
