Passage Reference: For example, there's Learn Salsa with Nina Balina's team. They say that salsa is an easy dance to learn. It's also an excellent form of exercise, according to Nina. And that class is for both men and women, of course.

Common Mistake: Some students choose all ages because salsa sounds fun and easy. This is a Partial truth trap - being easy does not mean children are included.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'for both men and women' = Statement: 'adults'

Tips: When you hear gender words like men and women, think adults unless children are mentioned.

Key Vocabulary:

• men and women = adults
• participants = people who join

Question Focus: Understanding age clues from description

Passage Reference: Then, another class is called Smooth Movers. It's with Kevin Bennett. And it's for you if you don't have the same energy levels as you used to when you were a teenager.

Why this is correct: The answer is adults because the speaker talks about people who are no longer teenagers and have less energy than before. This clearly points to adult participants.

Common Mistake: Students sometimes choose all ages because it sounds gentle. This is a Context shift trap - the context is clearly older people, not everyone.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'when you were a teenager' = Statement: 'adults'

Tips: Listen for comparisons to age stages like teenager or child - they signal who is excluded.

Key Vocabulary:

• energy levels = physical strength
• gentle = not hard

Question Focus: Recognising inclusion of both adults and children

Passage Reference: Then there's a day called Art of the Forest with Jamie Graham, where you discover Upper Wood, a short walk from the Colville Centre, and learn how to design in 3D with natural materials. It's an unusual and exciting way to be creative. Jamie is an artist with a background also as a country park ranger. For this day, youngsters must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, and the costs are adults, 40 pounds, under 14s, 10 pounds, but it's best value at 80 pounds for a family of four.

Why this is correct: The answer is all ages because the speaker mentions adults, under 14s, and families. This shows that both children and adults can take part together.

Common Mistake: Some students choose children and teenagers because youngsters are mentioned. This is a Partial truth trap - adults are also clearly included.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'adults and under 14s' = Statement: 'all ages'

Tips: If you hear prices for adults and children, it usually means all ages are included.

Key Vocabulary:

• youngsters = children
• accompanied = with an adult

Question Focus: Matching topic to likely participant group

Passage Reference: The next one is The Money Maze, and this is a series of talks by Peter O'Reilly, an independent financial advisor. He gives advice on family finances, things like everything parents need to know about managing the costs of bringing up children, sending them to university, and actually also about care for elderly relatives.

Why this is correct: The answer is adults because the talks are about family finances, parents, and elderly relatives. These topics are clearly aimed at adult listeners.

Common Mistake: Students sometimes choose all ages because talks sound general. This is a Context shift trap - the content is adult-only.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'parents need to know' = Statement: 'adults'

Tips: Think about who needs this information in real life - that often gives the answer.

Key Vocabulary:

• elderly = old
• finances = money

Question Focus: Listening for explicit age ranges

Passage Reference: And as a final example of what's on offer, there's make a play. That's for eight to four teens. And this activity is such a hit that it usually sells out within days of being announced. Basically, what you do is write, rehearse, and perform a play in just two days. And it doesn't require any previous experience. I gather there's lots of fun and silliness along the way. And the best bit, perhaps, is that there's a performance for family and friends at the end.

Why this is correct: The answer is children and teenagers because the speaker clearly says it is for eight to four teens, which means young people only. Adults are only watching at the end, not participating.

Common Mistake: Some students choose all ages because family and friends are mentioned. This is a Distractor trap - they attend the performance, not the class.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'eight to four teens' = Statement: 'children and teenagers'

Tips: Age ranges like eight to fourteen are strong signals - trust them.

Key Vocabulary:

• teens = teenagers
• performance = show

General Tips:

• In Matching Features, focus on age words like children, teenagers, adults, parents.
• Do not guess based on how fun an activity sounds - listen for clear age clues.
• The speaker often adds extra details later - keep listening before choosing.
• Options can repeat in matching features - do not cross them off.
• Always ask yourself: who is this really for in real life?
