Question Focus: The diagram shows what Rossi wants to publicize in the future.

Correct Answer: F

Why this is correct: The diagram asks about future plans. The speaker says the company wants to promote their values, including beauty, durability and care for the environment.

Common Mistake: Some students choose quality because it is mentioned again. But the speaker says customers already know the quality. The future focus is values. This is a partial truth trap.

Tips: For future plans, listen for phrases like 'aiming to' or 'in the future'.

Key Vocabulary:

• values = beliefs and principles
• publicize = promote

General Tips:

• Diagram questions follow the order of the recording. Use each answer to predict where the next one will appear.
• Listen for signpost words like 'because', 'so', and 'then'. They often explain causes and results.
• Do not choose a word just because you hear it. Check that it fits the diagram sentence.
• If the speaker corrects themselves or moves on, the later information is usually the answer.
• Read ahead during pauses so you know what information you are listening for next.
