IELTS Listening Practice Test 15

A complete 40-question IELTS Listening paper: a phone call to sign up for a weekly box of vegetables from a farm, an auctioneer's talk for people who have never bought at auction, two linguistics students and their tutor planning a report on how colleagues use emoji in their messages at work, and a lecture on lichens: what they are, what they tell us about the air, what people have made from them, and how they are used to date rock surfaces. Played in sequence under exam conditions and marked the moment you hand in.

Questions: 40

How should it play?

Exam conditionsPlays once, start to finish, on the real test's timeline: time to read before each part, half a minute to check after it, two minutes at the end. No pause, no rewind.PracticePause, rewind and play a part again as much as you like, read the script as it is spoken, and check your answers as you go. The clock counts up rather than down, and nothing is handed in for you.

The recording sets the pace from the moment you press the button. Nothing plays until you have had time to read.
