Features: "IELTS Step-by-Step Listening" consists of 3 volumes, suitable for candidates with scores ranging from 2 to 5. The first volume features slightly lower difficulty listening materials that are also shorter, with a slower pace compared to standard IELTS exam questions. In terms of question design, it focuses more on specific information retrieval, primarily including multiple-choice, table-filling, short-answer, and true/false questions, which are also high-frequency question types in the IELTS exam. The second volume includes listening materials with a vocabulary of around 5,000 words, which are relatively longer, allowing candidates to practice sustained listening and thereby improve their listening skills. The question types in this volume include both summary-based questions and specific information retrieval questions. The third volume features materials that are very close in difficulty and length to the actual IELTS exam, with a listening vocabulary of about 6,000 words. The question design in this volume has a higher proportion of summary-based questions. This set of books can be used for self-study or as a training textbook.
