HERRY PRASETYO
 What is the difference between hearing and
listening?
 Hearing is a physical ability while listening is
a skill. Listening skills allow one to make
sense of and understand what another person
is saying.
 In other words, listening skills allow you to
understand what someone is "talking about".
Why you need good listening skills?
Good listening skills make students more
active. The ability to listen carefully will allow
you to:
1. better understand assignments and what is
expected of you.
2. find underlying meaning in what others say.
3. answer questions correctly.
4. obtain a good mark in the test.
 Strategy for listening Part A Questions:
1. As you listen to each short conversation, focus
on the second line of the conversation.
2. The answer to the question is generally found in
the second line of the conversation.
3. Keep in mind that the correct answer is probably
a restatement of a key word or idea in the
second line of the conversation. Think of
possible restatements of the second line of the
conversation.
