Listen to a local news report once, organize the event details, then complete one written sentence from four choices.
A local reporter explains how a new Eastwood lending service works and what residents can expect before regular borrowing begins.
The written completion appears after the one-time report finishes. No transcript is provided, as in test listening practice.
One objective question cannot produce a reliable CELPIP level estimate.

PrepEx provides independent CELPIP-style practice and is not affiliated with Paragon Testing Enterprises. This one-question result is practice feedback, not a CELPIP level or official test result.
Listening to a News Item tests whether you can follow a formal, factual report, separate the main event from supporting details, and use those details to complete written sentences.
Identify what has happened and where before adding dates, people, rules, and future decisions to your notes.
Mark words such as only, before, after, must, and until because they often separate the answer from a nearby true detail.
Test every option in the sentence, then keep only the choice that also matches the exact event detail in the report.
The news report and question are original. The public player exposes the complete reviewed audio, while the source transcript, remaining four questions, and answer key stay on the server.
Listening to a News Item uses one speaker and one report of about one and a half minutes, followed by about five questions in an approximately five-minute part. Read the official study pack.
Official Listening Parts 4–6 show written sentence completions together under one set timer. This single-question preview preserves the written completion format without inventing a per-question limit.
Your selected letter is checked against one server-held answer after the live source contract is verified. No AI model, account submission, progress record, or daily Practice Hub allowance is used.
