Passage Reference: We need to talk about the levels of background noise so we know they're all going to be reasonable places to film.

Common Mistake: Some students choose equipment because lighting and sound are mentioned nearby. But here they are talking about noise from the location itself, not what tools they bring. This is a context shift trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'levels of background noise' = Diagram: 'check background noise'

Tips: Listen for problems at locations, not objects they own.

Key Vocabulary:

• levels = amounts
• reasonable = acceptable

Question Focus: The diagram shows who they must contact to check for roadworks or building work.

Correct Answer: E

Passage Reference: The local council have to be informed about things like that, so you can find out from them.

Why this is correct: The diagram asks who can give information about roadworks. The speaker clearly says you can check with the local council.

Common Mistake: A tempting wrong answer is shopowners because shops are mentioned earlier. But this part is about roads and building work, not shops. This is a context shift trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'find out from the local council' = Diagram: 'contact local council'

Tips: When you hear 'find out from', listen carefully for the person or organisation.

Key Vocabulary:

• roadworks = road repairs
• informed = officially told

Question Focus: The diagram shows planning the order and timing of filming scenes.

Correct Answer: G

Passage Reference: We need to prepare the shooting schedule day by day.

Why this is correct: The diagram step is about organising when scenes are filmed. The speaker says they need to prepare the shooting schedule day by day.

Common Mistake: Some students choose equipment because planning is mentioned earlier. But here the focus is on time and order, not tools. This is a partial truth trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'prepare the shooting schedule' = Diagram: 'make shooting schedule'

Tips: Words about time like 'when', 'how long', and 'day by day' usually point to schedules.

Key Vocabulary:

• prepare = make
• schedule = plan

Question Focus: The diagram shows the stage where they contact people and check availability.

Correct Answer: A

Passage Reference: Then, when you know how long filming is going to last, you can tell everyone when they're needed. Okay, so as soon as we can, we'll audition, and then when we contact people to offer them parts, we can send the exact dates. and make really sure they're free.

Why this is correct: The diagram refers to telling people exact dates and checking availability. The speaker is clearly talking about actors and whether they are free.

Common Mistake: Some choose understudies too early. But understudies are only discussed later, after main roles are chosen. This is a sequence trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'tell everyone when they're needed' = Diagram: 'contact actors'

Tips: Follow the order of events carefully. Diagram steps usually match the recording order.

Key Vocabulary:

• free = available
• needed = required

Question Focus: The diagram shows choosing backup people for main roles.

Correct Answer: H

Passage Reference: Then we need people who can take over the main parts if one of our stars falls ill or something. Yes, I agree. So offer the main parts to the people we really want, and then look at other volunteers who were okay. Yes. We can select the understudies once the main roles have been confirmed.

Why this is correct: The diagram asks about backup roles. The speaker says they will select the understudies after main roles are confirmed.

Common Mistake: A common wrong choice is actors because actors are discussed a lot. But this step is specifically about backups, not main actors. This is a partial truth trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'people who can take over' = Diagram: 'understudies'

Tips: Listen for explanations like 'if something goes wrong'. These often signal understudies.

Key Vocabulary:

• take over = replace
• confirmed = officially chosen

Question Focus: The final diagram step shows what items they will collect before filming starts.

Correct Answer: B

Passage Reference: My family has agreed to lend us some pieces of furniture which we need, so we'll go and fetch those the weekend before we start.

Why this is correct: The diagram asks what they will get before filming. The speaker says their family will lend them furniture and they will fetch it before they start.

Common Mistake: Some students choose costumes because clothing is mentioned. But the speaker says they do not need costumes. This is a negation trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'lend us some pieces of furniture' = Diagram: 'get furniture'

Tips: Pay attention when the speaker says they do NOT need something.

Key Vocabulary:

• lend = give temporarily
• fetch = go and get

General Tips:

• Diagram questions follow the order of the recording. Move step by step.
• Listen for signpost words like 'then', 'after that', and 'once'.
• Do not choose an option just because you hear the word. Check the meaning.
• If the speaker corrects themselves, the later information is usually the answer.
• Cross out options as you use them so you do not reuse the same word.
