Demonstrate understanding of spoken German related to everyday contexts
This standard tests whether you can understand spoken German in everyday situations like shopping, talking about daily life, or discussing familiar topics. You'll listen to recordings in German and answer questions in English to show what you understood. It's designed for students who are just starting to learn German seriously.
You understand the general ideas in the listening passages and answer briefly with some supporting detail, though your vocabulary knowledge is still limited.
You pick out relevant information, connect different ideas together, and back up your answers with good details that show solid vocabulary knowledge.
You explain the overall message thoroughly and accurately, give full answers that are well-organised, justify everything with detailed evidence, and show excellent vocabulary.
