Tips: Separate the speaker's own condition from the evidence other people use.

Why the other options are wrong:

• as long as every city copies Montreal's rules exactly.: The speaker uses Montreal as evidence but wants rules adjusted as cities learn. Nobody says every city should copy Montreal exactly.
• as long as local communities agree to each zone first.: The speaker wants to listen to communities and adjust rules. The speaker never says communities must agree before each zone opens.
• as long as it follows the way Europe does it.: Europe is the supporters' example. The speaker's own condition is clear rules, not following Europe.

Correct Answer: push people to drink at home or in bars instead.

Why this is correct: Advocates say the current rules push people to drink at home or in bars. They think park drinking encourages healthier outdoor socialising.

Tips: Listen for the exact complaint a group makes about the present situation.

Why the other options are wrong:

• send children the wrong message about alcohol.: The wrong message to children is a warning from Mothers Against Drunk Driving. It is about allowing park drinking, not about the current rules.
• keep families from enjoying parks in the evening.: More families in parks is a result from Montreal's pilot. It is not the supporters' complaint about the current rules.
• cost cities a lot of money in police calls.: Police calls come up only in Montreal's review, which found no big increase. Nobody talks about the cost of police calls.

Correct Answer: police calls, noise and litter did not really rise.

Why this is correct: City officials found no significant increase in police calls, noise complaints or litter compared to the summer before.

Tips: When a review or study is mentioned, listen for what it actually measured.

Why the other options are wrong:

• park use rose by about 25 percent.: Park use did go up, but by 15 percent, not 25 percent.
• more people chose to stay indoors in the evening.: The review found the opposite. Park use went up, and more families and groups came out instead of staying indoors.
• most visitors said they wanted the rules kept.: Support for drinking in parks comes from the national poll. The Montreal review did not ask visitors.

Correct Answer: Respectful, and willing to adjust the rules as cities learn.

Why this is correct: The speaker says parks serve everyone, including families and people who prefer no alcohol. The speaker wants to listen to communities and adjust the rules.

Tips: For attitude questions, notice what the speaker says about a group's concern and what the speaker still wants.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Respectful, and ready to pause park drinking until they are solved.: The speaker respects the worries but never suggests pausing park drinking. The speaker wants to adjust rules as cities learn.
• Respectful, but sure that clear rules alone will settle them.: Clear rules are part of the answer, but the speaker also wants to listen to communities and keep adjusting.
• Respectful, and keen to set up separate alcohol-free parks.: The speaker says parks serve everyone. Nobody suggests separate alcohol-free parks.

Correct Answer: support the right to drink responsibly in parks.

Why this is correct: The poll found that 62 percent of Canadians supported the right to drink responsibly in parks.

Tips: Match the named source to the exact result it reports.

Why the other options are wrong:

• support allowing drinking in any public place.: The poll asked only about drinking responsibly in parks. It did not ask about all public places.
• want park drinking kept to special zones.: Special zones are the speaker's suggested condition. The poll did not ask about zones.
• would rather drink at home or in bars.: Drinking at home or in bars is what supporters say current rules push people to do. It is not a poll result.

Correct Answer: Their evenings became noisier than they used to be.

Why this is correct: Neighbourhood associations said the zones drew larger, louder crowds that stayed later into the evening. So nearby evenings were noisier than before.

Tips: Think about what a complaint tells you about people's daily lives.

Why the other options are wrong:

• They found much more litter on their streets.: Litter is mentioned only for Montreal, where it did not rise. Toronto's neighbours talked about crowds and late evenings.
• They were mostly families with young children.: Families are linked to Montreal's higher park use. Nothing is said about who lives near the Toronto parks.
• They saw more impaired driving on nearby roads.: Impaired driving is a warning from Mothers Against Drunk Driving about what could happen. Toronto's neighbours did not report it.
