Multiple Choice, Choose Single Answer
Speak clearly, score higher.Question Number 1
In this task, you will read a passage and then answer a multiple-choice question by choosing the one option that is most accurately supported by the information in the text.
Understand how scores are given in this task.
Understand what the PTE evaluates and apply precise strategies to confidently select the correct answer.
Before the audio starts, read all options carefully. Underline keywords and predict the type of answer (main idea, detail, or inference). This helps you focus on what matters most during listening.
Eliminate options that are not mentioned, opposite in meaning, or partially true. Remember, answers are often paraphrased. Recognizing synonyms and rephrased sentences improves accuracy.
Jot down important facts like numbers, dates, names, or places while listening. This helps link the audio to the correct option without requiring a detailed description.
Train with 40–60 second clips like news reports or lectures. Focus on main ideas, paraphrasing, and implied meaning. Repetition helps you catch keywords faster during the actual test.
Audio plays only once, so don’t spend too long on a single question. Focus on listening carefully, and trust your first impression—most often, it is correct if you’ve actively followed the audio.
Do not rely on personal knowledge or assumptions. Choose the option that matches the speaker’s message exactly as presented in the audio. Even if an answer sounds logical, it is incorrect unless it is clearly supported by what you heard.
