The keyword of Q14 is “date” so the answer may be a point of time. 

Three other important clues – “6:30 pm”,“Monkey” and “Powerhouse” which have been provided in the table give us extra information about the name of the play, time and place.

At first, we will hear the speaker introduces the first event will happen at September 8. Then, she continues “And then for something completely different, MONKEY which is a play - is showing at the Powerhouse at 6:30 on the following night.” From two above points, we can deduce that the Monkey play will happen at September 9.

So, the correct answer of Q14 is September 9.

For Q15, we have to find information about type of activity

The other clues about this event are the place - Performing Arts Centre, the name of the event - Sumi Jo with Queensland Orchestra and time and date -8 pm and Sep 11.

We will first hear the speaker mentions about this event in the sentence “world-renowned soprano Sumi Jo is performing with the Queensland Orchestra on September 11” so we know that the following part will include the answer.

After that, she says “She will be starting at 8 p.m. - if you can’t make it then, though, she will be performing some opera at later performances”. From this sentence, we know that the activity she is mentioning about is opera.

So, correct answer of Q15 is opera.

The keyword concerned in Q16 is “name of the event”.

The other clues about this event are type of activity – music, date – Wed to Sat and the place – City Gardens.

First, we will hear the speaker mentions about music as following: “Festival Club is going to be held every evening from Wednesdays to Saturdays at the City Gardens”. And the information about this Festival Club is absolutely in line with the clues of this question.

So, we can assure that correct answer of Q16 must be Festival Club.

For Q17, we have to find information about date of Asia-Pacific Triennial event, Visual Arts type which take place at Art Gallery.

Firstly, we can hear that the speaker introduce an event for anyone who is interested in Visual Arts. Then we hear additional information that she provides such as the Art Gallery or Asia-Pacific Triennial, it is sure that this is the right event that we need to find out its date. And the date is mentioned twice in her sentence: the first one is September 13 which mislead us because after that she says sorry and provide the right one which is September 14.

So, correct answer of Q17 must be September 14 or 14th September.

The keyword of Q18 is “venue” so the answer may be a place.

The other clues about this event are type of activity – Drama, date and time–6 p.m on 15 September and the name of the event – Slava's Snowshow.

This event is mentioned when the speaker says “If you like drama, you'll have to see Slava's Snowshow the next day, at the Performing Arts Centre… It starts at 6”. From this sentence, we can see much information which is compatible with our key words such as: “drama”, “Slava's Snowshow”, “the next day” (= “15 September”) and “6” so we can conclude that this event is taken place at the Performing Arts Centre. 

Therefore answer of Q18 must be Performing Arts Centre.

The answer of Q19 is also venue or a place.

The other clues about this event are type of activity – Music, date and time – 8 p.m on 20 September and the name of the event – Barbara Fordham in concert.

At the beginning of the introduction, the speaker mentions about Barbara Fordham which is a clear signal for us.

After that, the speaker continues to provide information about this event “Barbara Fordham will be performing a series of concerts at the City Football Club from September 20” and “Concerts start at 8 - as I said at the City Football Club”. From these clues, we can infer that the place of this event is City Football Club.

So, answer of Q19 must be City Football Club.

The keywords of Q20 are “name of the event” and “opera”

The other clues about this event are type of activity – Music, date and time – 6 p.m on 6 October and the place – City Gardens.

We will hear the speaker says that “And if you don't go to anything else, you simply must go to the Opera Under the Stars at City Gardens. This will be the grand finale on October 6th”. These information in this sentence is suitable with the clues from the table so we can deduce this is the mentioned event in Q20.

From what she introduces, the name of this event will be Opera Under the Stars and we can make sure again thanks to her reminder “So remember that one, Opera Under the Stars -starting at 6 on October 6.”

So, the correct answer for Q20 is Under the Stars.

The keyword concerned in Q22 must be “area of land” and “Malaysia”.

From the question, we know that we need to find the area of Malaysia for Q22.

First, we hear Jenny says that “total land area of Singapore is…” so we know the following part will contain information about are. Then after mentioning about area of Singapore, she continues to give us information about area of Malaysia in the sentence “whilst Malaysia's was 329,758 square kilometres”.

Therefore answer of Q22 is 329,758.

The keyword concerned in Q23 is “population” and “Singapore”, so we should recognize information about population of Singapore 

Also in the speech of Jenny, we hear that “Malaysia is a much larger nation with a bigger population”. The phrase “bigger population” is a clue for us. We have to focus on next information.

Then we hear she mentions “Singapore has just over 3 million.” So we know that the population of Singapore is over 3 million

Hence, answer for Q23 can be about/over/more than 3 million.

The keywords concerned in Q24 must be “approximate ethnic mix”, “Singapore” and “Chinese”.

From the question sheet, we know that missing information is the percentage of Chinese group in ethnic mix.

In the question of the tutor “Did you look at their population mix?”, we can hear the phrase “population mix” which is compatible with “approximate ethnic mix”. Then in the student’s answers, she mentions “The breakdown of the population”. From above, so we can sure that following information will contain the answer.

Then after talking about Malaysia, she says “In Singapore, three quarters of the population is Chinese”. From this sentence, we can easily find out that Chinese is making up of three quarters the total. Therefore, answer for this question can be 75%/3/4 of population

The keyword concerned in Q25 is “Australia’s relationship with Singapore”.

From the question, we can assume that answer should be an adjective

First we hear a clue when the tutor says “Australia has had a fairly stable relationship with Singapore”. Then the student answers “Umm, yes. Singapore and Australia have always maintained a friendly and warm relationship”. From her answer, we can conclude that friendly and warm is correct answer of Q25.

The keyword concerned in Q26 must be “trade between Singapore and Australia”

This keyword appears when Nancy says “So, trade between Singapore and Australia is continuing to grow”. So continuing to grow/growing is answer of Q26.

The keyword concerned in Q27 must be “Singapore and Malaysia”, “share”, “top trading partners”

From the question, we can assume that answer must be name of a country that is one of top trading partners of both Singapore and Malaysia.

During they talk about trade between Singapore and Australia, we can hear the key word “Singapore’s top three trading partners”. And we have to be careful because we can misunderstand that Australia is one of Singapore’s top three trading partners. But as she says, “but we’re not one of Singapore’s top three trading partners”. So in this case, the answer isn’t Australia.

Then she continue list out the top three trading partners which are US, Japan and Malaysia.

Then the other student give information that “Malaysia’s top three trading partners are the US, Japan and Singapore”.

From above 2 sentences, we can infer that US and Japan are in top trading partners of both Singapore and Malaysia. As US has been mentioned in the question, we can conclude that Japan is correct answer of Q27
