IELTS Listening Practice Test 36

Did you know that questions often get repeated in the IELTS? So it is important that you practise using the questions that have already appeared in the test.

Moreover, if you’re taking the listening test, you should be aware of concepts such as signposting and techniques such as distraction. Our IELTS listening practice tests are curated from previous year’s IELTS test papers, making them ideal for practice. So, take one of our IELTS listening practice tests and learn how to follow the audio using these techniques. 

In Listening Test 36, you will hear 4 audio recordings and answer questions 1-40. The recordings will be played 

Section 1 is a telephone conversation between a passenger and an official at the land transport information service at the Toronto airport. 

Section 2 you will hear a representative from a company talk about the holidays that their company organises. 

Section 3 is a conversation between a tutor and 2 business students about their research on managing individuals. 

Section 4 is a lecture on cave paintings and other types of rock art.
