You listen to a speaker (Rangi McGarvey) talking about te reo Māori language and answer three questions about what the speaker is saying and why it matters. You need to show you understand the speaker's ideas, explain how specific parts connect to the main points, and back up your answers with examples from what you heard.
What to do, grades and common mistakes
- ·Listen carefully to the audio recording and identify the speaker's main ideas about te reo Māori (Ngā iwi tōmua i a Ngāi Tūhoe by Rangi McGarvey)
- ·Answer all three exam questions that ask you to explain what the speaker is saying and why it connects to the overall topic
- ·Use specific quotes or details from the recording to support and prove your answers
- ·Explain your own thinking about what the speaker means and how the ideas link together
- ·Write clear explanations that show you understood the speaker's message, not just picked up random words
You answer all three questions with relevant ideas from the recording, use some supporting details, and explain how they link to the main point—but your explanations are quite short.
You explain your answers clearly, use good supporting details from the recording, show thinking about why the speaker said certain things, and connect ideas to the main topic throughout.
