🎧 About This Listening Test

This Computer-Based IELTS Listening Practice Test 2 replicates the official IELTS CBT listening examination with four parts of increasing complexity. Part 1 is a conversation between a customer and a travel agent, completing a holiday booking form. Part 2 is a monologue about the Run-Well charity and an upcoming race event. Part 3 is an academic discussion between two students preparing a presentation on the topic of naming. Part 4 is an academic lecture covering the history and uses of gas balloons, hot air balloons and airships.

All official IELTS question types are covered: form/notes completion, choose-three multiple select, matching and sentence completion. Listen to the embedded audio, answer as you go, and submit for your instant estimated IELTS band score and full answer review.

🎤 Audio Instructions

Click Play on the audio player bar shown at the top during the test. Make sure your volume is fully turned up before pressing Start. Headphones are recommended for the best experience.
