Today we're pleased to present another listening exercise for all of you gearing up to take the HSK for the first time. These fifteen questions are all call-and-answer exercises appropriate for students with about a year of language study. The challenge is to select the most logical reply to the statement provided.

In a real test environment you'll only have one shot at answering these questions. So to best simulate the real thing we recommend either downloading our MP3 or listening to the recording through the flash player on this page. In addition to taking the test online you can download the questions as part of your custom PDF transcript and take the test away from your computer.

Excellent test. Regardless of whether you plan on taking the HSK, this is great practice for the beginnger. The content here keeps getting better and better...

Small error on number 9: option C is reads "火车赶不上开走了。" but I believe it should be “火车已经开走了"

Would it be possible to have the transcripts of the listening exercise? It would be useful when not even the 102nd listening produces an intelligible signal :-)

@ebaygil - we're adding transcripts to the advanced listening tests. will think of how best to do this for the earlier levels. In the meantime, if you have trouble with any particular question, why not let us know and we can post the question in the discussion space here?
