- Use the dictionary during the exam
- Bring a dictionary to tomorrow's class Correct answer.
- Buy a new dictionary after class

Question 3Oral communication (listening and speaking)
You hear: 「请问,去火车站怎么走?」What is the person asking?
- When the train will arrive
- How to get to the train station Correct answer.
- How much a train ticket costs

Question 4Oral communication (listening and speaking)
A friend says: 「对不起,我明天不能去你家了,因为我妈妈生病了。」Why is the friend cancelling?
- The friend must go to work
- The friend has another appointment

- The item is discounted to 160 yuan from 200 yuan Correct answer.
