Multiple-choice questions in the Listening section of the IELTS exam pattern can be tricky because they often include distractors. To tackle them:
Before listening, read the question and options carefully. This gives you a clear idea of what to listen for.
As you listen, focus on keywords in the options. The correct answer will often be directly related to what is being discussed.
Be cautious of distractors – words that sound similar but are not the correct answer.
Practice by listening to similar multiple-choice questions and analyzing why certain options are correct or incorrect.
