Tips for the PET (B1: Preliminary) Multiple Choice Part 1 Questions
In the PET Part 1 Multiple Choice task, you will read real-world notices, messages and other short texts and need to show you can understand the main message.
The first time you read the text, decide what it might be: a notice, an email, a text message ect.
Before you look at the options, decide what you think the main message in the text is.
Read the three options and try to match the correct one.
Don't choose an answer just because it contains a word that is in the text.
Look out for words or expressions in the options that have a similar meaning to ones in the text. For example 'collect the tickets' and 'pick them up' in Question 1 above, and 'isn't working' and 'out of order' in Question 2.
Double check your answer before you move on to the next question.
