Summary -------> at the end
Layout -------> Simple Language
xxxx--------> put after another section
---------
my 11-15-----> BB ACA ---
11 was tricky! because it first said you have to teach people in Africa. and then said, don't worry you will be trained about the necessary skills! That questions was a big blow for many test takers.
I also put summary - at the end)

Google informal letter and you ll see loads of hi..
About your previous message, yes I agree there s a special tone.
Butin semi formal letter to your colleague you won't write what's up dude. As well as dear Mr. Switch - too formal.
For this task you should use something in between, more relaxed tone.
As I wrote before, there's no info wherever it was your colleague who was your best friend from school times.
I'm certain that for marks 5.0-6.0 we can forget about semi formal.
But for those who want 7.0 and more it's crucial to be able to write semi formal.
Mate, what are you trying to say?
U chose Semi
Most of us Chose Informal
We're all right!
it's about tone. you talk with your father friendly. also with your friends, but still the tone differs.
SEMI FORMAL, FORMAL or INFORMAL. Tone is an overall trend, not an immediate decision.

I'm not sure the answer for Question 22 for Listening, about the website is "very easy and clear". Although Leila says the website is easy she says it contains technical information which relevant to their study, so I chose C
you sure about that? Because I also chose c, relevant to their case, but was wondering if my answer is wrong.

Le'ts say you're trying to write a letter to your Grandfather.
If he's your boss. It' should be FORMAL. If he's just your grandfather and he's sick -----> Friendly!
So it's not about memorizing words: neighbour boss colleague supervisor....
If you're just a student -------> formal letter-------->Supervisor
If your supervisor is your girlfriend---------> Informal
Your Colleague --------> Can be both: if your relationship is confined to the workplace ----------> Formal
But, if you're going to ask her/him a favour, or want to hang out ---------------> Informal

But she said data was really easy and obvious. She never denied her statement.
I'm pretty sure there was a hint in other choices, contradicting her words.
Relevant but difficult or something ..........
-------
This time listening was kinda tricky (4-5 questions )

The letter was informal . Confirmed from the reliable resource.
Because bullet points wanted you to describe a different story
Such as past years
Current plans
And arranging a meeting
If receipent of letter didnt know you well why talk about past and arrange a meeting?

One thing I still doubt is Question 40- Listening
-------
It was about future thoughts.
About adding and improving. I talked about few things, but in the last sentence, the speaker stressed ---- Beauty.

Exam takers sometimes like to guess.
Can someone write the whole sentence with the blank - because I wrote down 2-3 words and BEAUTY was the only meaningful match!

The only word which I remember from the last sentence is restoration. It was one of the last. So I wrote this.
Don't remember any technology at all.
As I written earlier, before hear, I tried to guess and I thought the missed word will be 'design'. But I didn't hear it. Beauty is very close to design and could perfectly match that sentence. But I didn't hear it neither.
I wrote restoration, some people here wrote this too. I hope my answer is the right one.

Well, in my test centre, I checked with few students and they said Beauty. I can't say much about Question 40! Mysterious!
