Entender el inglés en entornos ruidosos como aeropuertos o recepciones de hoteles es el reto más grande para los candidatos al nivel B2. El módulo de Listening de Oxford evalúa la capacidad de extraer información específica de diálogos rápidos.

Para apoyar a la comunidad educativa en México, el Director de TopLangues ha liberado una serie de "Scripts" y simulacros que permiten a los estudiantes anticipar las respuestas correctas. Esta práctica es vital para quienes buscan el éxito en la apertura de cursos de agosto en Cancún. Descubre cómo manejar situaciones de quejas de huéspedes y anuncios de mantenimiento técnico con estos reactivos oficiales.

🎧 Lee el contexto del audio y responde:

1. Situation: You hear a receptionist talking to a hotel guest at the front desk.

[Audio Script]: "Good morning, sir. Your room on the fourth floor is ready, but I see here that you requested a king-size bed. Unfortunately, we only have twin beds available on that floor right now. If you don't mind waiting until 3:00 PM, we can give you the exact room you wanted on the sixth floor."

What is the problem with the guest's room right now?

a) It will not be ready until 3:00 PM.

b) It is on the wrong floor.

c) It does not have the type of bed he requested.

2. Situation: You hear a teacher explaining a certification deadline to her class.

[Audio Script]: "Listen up, everyone. I know the university platform says you have until midnight on June 15th to upload your Oxford OPT results. However, the system usually crashes during the last few hours due to high traffic. To avoid issues, please make sure to submit your scores by noon on the 14th."

When does the teacher recommend submitting the results?

a) On June 14th in the afternoon.

b) On June 14th before midday.

c) On June 15th at midnight.

3. Situation: You hear an announcement at the Cancun airport terminal.

[Audio Script]: "Attention passengers for flight MX-402 to Mexico City. Due to heavy rain over the central valley, boarding will be delayed by approximately forty-five minutes. Please remain near Gate 7 for further updates."

Why is the flight delayed?

a) Because of bad weather conditions.

b) Because the gate number changed.

c) Because of a mechanical issue on the plane.

🔑 Key / Respuestas Correctas y Explicación

1. Respuesta correcta: c) It does not have the type of bed he requested.

Explicación: El recepcionista dice claramente: "you requested a king-size bed. Unfortunately, we only have twin beds available on that floor right now". El problema actual es el tipo de cama.

2. Respuesta correcta: b) On June 14th before midday.

Explicación: La maestra recomienda entregar el documento "by noon on the 14th". Noon significa mediodía (12:00 PM), por lo tanto, es antes del mediodía o justo a esa hora.

3. Respuesta correcta: a) Because of bad weather conditions.

Explicación: El anuncio menciona "heavy rain" (lluvia fuerte), lo que equivale directamente a malas condiciones climáticas (bad weather).
