Why Practice Listening for Information Questions?
In Part 3 you hear an extended conversation, often with one person drawing detailed information out of an informed speaker, and answer six questions about the specifics that are exchanged.
The skill is tracking facts across a longer audio: reasons, examples, and qualifications that build on each other. Practising many conversations trains you to hold those details and match each question to the exact point where it was answered.
When you are ready for the full experience, take a complete listening mock test under exam timing.
