How to approach Listening Test Part Three
· In this part of the Listening Test you listen to a long conversation or interview and answer eight questions.
· Before you listen, read the questions. Think what the recording will be about.
· Note all possible answers as you listen for the first time. Do not make an immediate decision. Do not worry if you do not know the answers. You will hear the recording a second time.
· Listen for overall meaning. Do not choose an answer just because you hear the same words in the recording as in the question.
· Decide on your final answer only after you have listened for the second time.
· You will hear a radio interview with Carolyn Whitcombe about the business consultancy which she runs.

· You will hear the recording twice.What did the consultancy help the supermarket chain to do
