A level Chinese LRS practice - 12 sets

(0)
I have created 12 sets of “listening, reading and speaking” exam practice for my students. 3 sets of each of the 4 themes. There is a free sample set for you to download to see if you like the resource: /teaching-resource/a-level-chinese-lrs-practice-sample-set-13048879 Notes for use: Listening: the questions are similar to that of A level exam paper. In the folder, you will find tracked audio files and the untracked one. Please note that in some of the audio files, I have used to a voice changer so the voice may occasionally sound a little strange. Reading: the text is much longer than the A level exam paper ones. I designed it that way because the text content itself serves as a modeled extended speaking answer. Speaking: I have adapted IB questions for these as I personally think IB themes are better! But the structures of answer should serve as a guidance for A level themed questions as well. Delete or adapt as you like!

This resource contains top-mark tips summarised as A.C.T.I.O.N. Students can use this as a checklist, along with the marking criteria when practising essay writing.
