🎧 Listen, Test, Learn, and Speak

Start by hitting play on the recording.

1️⃣ Step 1: Listen

First, you’ll hear it at normal speed, and then again at a slower pace.

Try listening to the normal speed a few times. Don’t worry if you don’t catch everything right away, you’ll start to pick up more and more words each time.

If some parts are still tricky, that’s totally okay! The slower version will help you hear those details more clearly.

Just by giving it a try, you’re already improving your listening skills, so keep going, you’re doing great!

🎯 Step 2: HSK Comprehension Test

Now it’s time to see how much you understood! Try the multiple-choice questions, they’re designed just like HSK questions, so you’re getting real practice here. Every question is a step closer to HSK success!

3️⃣ Step 3: Review, Learn, and Dig Into Grammar

Now, take a look at the transcription, translation, and vocabulary list. Don’t rush through. If you spot any unfamiliar words, this is your moment to learn them.

Also, check out the grammar explanations. They’ll help you understand how the sentences work and give you new ways to use Chinese in your own conversations.

4️⃣ Step 4: Read It Out Loud

To wrap things up, try reading the transcript out loud (without the pinyin). It’s not just about getting the sounds right, it’s about making those new words stick in your memory and building confidence in your pronunciation.
