    The multiple choice were easy and the last writing, you didn't even have to listen for that one. But the other two writing were definitely the hardest.

    Found it really difficult
    what were all the answers to the news questions (what and where)?
    and also the last four questions (why were they being interviewed?

    Also for the P/N/P&N question did you guys put P, N, P&N, P?
    YES

    For the positive/negative questions I think I got N, P, P+N and P instead of P, N, P+N, P because I thought the first one was him talking about how his brother annoys him and so on and the second one was the girl talking about how she always does everything with her mother and that she loves spending time with her etc.?

    Question 3 was the hardest one for me, really struggled on that one. In general, I thought the exam was pretty difficult.

    The interview one was difficult too.

    Marea Negra means oil spill, but I couldn't catch where it happened.

    I'm just curious, what did people put for the jobs? From what I remember, the advantages of the first job was the holiday and then disadvantage was the hours?

    These are my best attempts at the right answers.

    1) cost of uniform
    Excellent facilities
    Assesments
    Class sizes
    2) N
    P
    P/N
    P
    3) theft in jewellers
    Strike in townhall
    Flood in city centre
    Oil rig on island
    4) endangered species
    Air pollution
    Packaging
    Drought
    5) mountains
    Castles
    Camping
    Scotland
    6) the computer machine
    The screen
    Mouse
    Headphones
    7) wanted an exchange
    Wrong size
    Queue too long
    Rude assistant
    8) can't remember order
    Started a business at young age
    Won a gold medal in last olympic
    Saved dog from drowning in river
    Designed a uniform for something.
    9) charity shop
    Picks up rubbish
    Serves food
    Old peoples home.

    Oh and the jobs one - advantage is money and disadvantage is responsability. 2nd one - advantage is lots of jobs and disadvantage is long training.
    Can't really remember order so sorry if answers are a bit muddled but this is what I got. I found the test really quite hard.

    for the jobs, the advantage was pay - "it is important to get good pay when living in the city" and responsibility "the responsibilities are stressful"

    and the second one the advantage was that there are many jobs available, but you have to train for a long time.
    Hard exam.
