RADIOGRAFÍA DEL EXAMEN

01

El Factor Tiempo

Tienes 2.5 minutos por pregunta (40 min total). No leas los textos palabra por palabra. Usa el "Scanning": busca la palabra clave de la pregunta dentro del texto y lee solo esa frase.

02

El Poder del Descarte

Todo es tipo test (A, B, C, D). Si dudas, tacha las opciones absurdas (las que dicen "nunca", "siempre" o "todos"). Eliminar 2 opciones malas aumenta tu probabilidad al 50%.

03

Trampas "Spanglish"

El examen busca errores típicos. Cuidado con los False Friends (Actual no es actual) y las traducciones literales.

False Friends Logic

04

Estrategia de Listening

Lee las preguntas antes de escuchar. Así sabrás qué información específica buscar (un lugar, una actitud, un número) y no te perderás intentando entenderlo todo.

However, many experts express concerns regarding its ethical use and the potential displacement of human labour. If companies invest more in technology than in training their staff, the social gap will likely widen.

In this educational scenario, a school wellbeing team is discussing patterns of bullying among teenagers. The team reports that verbal harassment and social exclusion appear more frequently than physical violence in the cases they review. In their fictional sample, around one quarter of the students affected by online harassment say they have experienced cyberbullying. Many victims remain silent because they fear retaliation or feel embarrassed. The speakers recommend that teachers promote empathy, mediation and safe reporting procedures. They also stress the role of bystanders: when classmates support the victim and report harmful behaviour, they can help stop the cycle of bullying.
