Tips: For main idea questions, focus on the first speaker and the purpose of the meeting.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Whether to merge with another sailing club on Prince Edward Island.: No merger with another sailing club is proposed.
• Whether to offer adult sailing lessons alongside the youth programme.: Adult lessons are not proposed; the extra weeks concern youth sessions.
• Whether to build a new sailing facility in Summerside.: They discuss programme duration and staffing, not a new sailing facility.

Correct Answer: There was a waiting list last summer and families across PEI asked about extra sessions.

Why this is correct: The person on the right cites a full waiting list and requests from families across PEI for extra sessions.

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 believes longer programmes improve children's physical fitness.: Physical fitness is not the reason given.
• The City of Summerside has mandated longer youth programmes.: A municipal mandate is not cited.
• The person on the right wants the club to qualify for national sailing competitions.: National competition eligibility is not the reason given.

Correct Answer: They are already stretched for certified instructors with Sail Canada credentials.

Why this is correct: The person on the left worries about safe supervision because qualified Sail Canada instructors are already scarce.

Tips: When you hear a concern, listen to the reason that follows.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Parents will not want their children sailing for eight weeks.: Weak parental demand contradicts the waiting-list evidence and is not the person on the left's concern.
• The harbour will be too crowded during peak sailing months.: Harbour crowding is not the stated concern.
• The club does not have enough boats for extra participants.: Boat numbers are not the stated concern.

Correct Answer: The person on the right wants fees to stay stable so local kids are not excluded.

Why this is correct: The person on the right requires stable fees to avoid excluding local Summerside children from access.

Tips: For condition questions, listen for if or as long as phrases.

Why the other options are wrong:

• The person on the right wants the programme to include competitive racing events.: Competitive racing is not the person on the right's condition.
• The person on the right wants all instructors to hold advanced lifeguard certification.: Advanced lifeguard certification is not the person on the right's condition.
• The person on the right wants the club to purchase new sailboats before expanding.: Buying new sailboats is not the person on the right's condition.

Correct Answer: A small grant from the PEI Department of Fisheries and Communities.

Why this is correct: The person on the left says a small PEI Department of Fisheries and Communities grant must be secured before they promise extra weeks. The grant would help cover instructor costs.

Tips: Link funding sources to the expense mentioned nearby.

Why the other options are wrong:

• An increase in municipal property taxes.: Property-tax increases are not proposed.
• A donation drive among club members and parents.: A member donation drive is not the funding source named.
• A corporate sponsorship from a national retailer.: National-retailer sponsorship is not the funding source named.

Correct Answer: Adding just two extra weeks as a pilot and reviewing costs before the fall annual meeting.

Why this is correct: The person in the centre suggests testing the two extra weeks and reviewing enrolment and costs before the fall annual meeting.

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

Why the other options are wrong:

• Running the full eight-week programme but with fewer participants.: Adding two weeks to the current six-week programme would total eight, but the person in the centre does not propose reducing participant numbers. The person in the centre proposes a trial followed by a review.
• Partnering with a nearby club to share instructors and facilities.: Sharing facilities with another club is not the person in the centre's suggestion.
• Offering the extra weeks only to returning students from the previous year.: Returning-students-only eligibility is not proposed.

Correct Answer: Two part-time instructors.

Why this is correct: The person in the centre reports that the proposal includes two part-time instructors to cover the extra weeks.

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

Why the other options are wrong:

• One full-time harbour manager only.: A harbour manager is not the staffing addition named.
• Replacing every certified instructor with volunteers.: Replacement of certified instructors with volunteers is not proposed.
• A permanent lifeguard at each boat without additional instructors.: Boat-specific lifeguards are not the proposal described.

Correct Answer: Follow up with a few options for the group to consider.

Why this is correct: The person on the right says the person on the right will follow up with options; no fallback duration is agreed if grant funding fails.

Tips: End-of-meeting statements often answer next step questions.

Why the other options are wrong:

• The club should raise fees slightly to cover the difference.: A fee increase is not the closing promise.
• Cancel the youth programme entirely.: They do not want to pause youth activities completely. The person on the right suggests following up with options rather than cancelling the programme.
• The club should fundraise through community events instead.: Community fundraising is not the closing action named.
