Full transcript with model answers
Under each segment: a model interpretation, the information points an examiner checks, and the easiest thing to miss. Try the segment yourself first, then open it. The model is one good way to say it; other wordings that keep every point score just as well.
Your claim has been approved. icare NSW will start weekly payments, though the exact timing can vary depending on your case manager.
Model answer and marking points
您的理赔申请已经批准了。icare NSW 会开始给您发每周补偿金，不过具体什么时候开始发，要看您的个案经理，时间可能会有所不同。
What an examiner checks here:
- claim approved
- icare NSW will start weekly payments
- exact start timing can vary
- timing depends on the case manager
Easy to miss: Keep the caveat that the start timing varies by case manager; don't present payments as starting at a fixed time.
那这个每周发的补偿金会不会一直这样发下去啊？还是说有时间限制？
Model answer and marking points
So will these weekly payments just keep going like this indefinitely? Or is there a time limit?
What an examiner checks here:
- question: do the weekly payments continue indefinitely
- question: or is there a time limit
- two alternatives offered
Easy to miss: It is a two-part question with two alternatives; don't collapse it into a single statement or drop the time-limit half.
Your turn — don't read the rest yet. Hear this dialogue at native speed and interpret each segment aloud; AI marks what you kept, left out or changed, segment by segment. Your first two full dialogues are marked free.
Interpret it aloud now →It's not unlimited. Payments continue as long as your doctor certifies you're unfit for work, but they're reviewed periodically to check your ongoing capacity.
Model answer and marking points
不是无限期的。只要您的医生开证明说您不适合工作，补偿金就会继续发，但是会定期复查，看看您后续的工作能力情况。
What an examiner checks here:
- not unlimited
- payments continue as long as doctor certifies unfit for work
- reviewed periodically
- review checks ongoing work capacity
Easy to miss: 'Unfit for work' is the condition for payments continuing, not stopping; don't flip the logic.
我现在就靠这笔钱付房租，如果复查的时候我还没找到新工作，是不是就直接不发了？
Model answer and marking points
Right now I'm relying on this money to pay my rent. If I still haven't found a new job by the time of the review, does that mean the payments just stop straight away?
What an examiner checks here:
- relies on this money to pay rent
- condition: still no new job at the review
- question: will payments stop immediately
Easy to miss: Keep the rent detail and the 'haven't found a new job' condition; the speaker links the two to the question.
No, not automatically. Reviews happen periodically, and the exact schedule depends on your case manager. If you're still certified unfit, payments continue as normal.
Model answer and marking points
不会，不是自动就停的。复查是定期进行的，具体时间安排要看您的个案经理。如果医生仍然证明您不适合工作，补偿金会照常继续发。
What an examiner checks here:
- no, not automatically
- reviews happen periodically
- exact schedule depends on case manager
- if still certified unfit, payments continue as normal
Easy to miss: 'Not automatically' is a qualified no; don't render it as a flat 'no, they won't stop'.
那复查之前我需要准备什么材料？是不是得提前把医生开的证明交上去？
Model answer and marking points
So what documents do I need to prepare before the review? Do I have to submit the doctor's certificate in advance?
What an examiner checks here:
- question: what documents to prepare before the review
- question: must the doctor's certificate be submitted in advance
- timing: before the review
Easy to miss: Two separate questions; keep 'in advance' rather than just 'submit the certificate'.
Yes, submit an updated medical certificate before the review date. Without it, icare NSW may pause payments until they receive updated evidence of your condition.
Model answer and marking points
是的，请在复查日期之前提交一份更新的医疗证明。如果没有这份证明，icare NSW 可能会暂停发放补偿金，直到收到您病情的最新证据为止。
What an examiner checks here:
- yes
- submit an updated medical certificate
- before the review date
- without it icare NSW may pause payments
- until updated evidence of condition is received
Easy to miss: 'May pause' is possible and temporary; don't say payments will be cancelled or stopped for good.
那这个证明是通过Service NSW网站交，还是直接联系icare那边？
Model answer and marking points
So do I submit this certificate through the Service NSW website, or do I contact icare directly?
What an examiner checks here:
- question: submit via the Service NSW website
- question: or contact icare directly
- two alternatives
Easy to miss: Keep Service NSW and icare as two distinct organisations; don't merge or swap them.
You'll submit it directly through the icare NSW portal, not Service NSW. Your case manager will confirm once they've received it.
Model answer and marking points
您要直接通过 icare NSW 的网上门户提交，不是通过 Service NSW。您的个案经理收到之后会跟您确认。
What an examiner checks here:
- submit directly through the icare NSW portal
- not Service NSW
- case manager will confirm
- confirmation comes once it has been received
Easy to miss: Don't drop 'not Service NSW'; that negation is the actual answer to the question.
如果复查那天我人不舒服去不了，怎么办呢？
Model answer and marking points
What if I'm not feeling well on the review day and can't make it? What should I do then?
What an examiner checks here:
- condition: unwell on the review day
- can't attend
- question: what to do
Easy to miss: This is a hypothetical question, not a statement that the client is unwell now.
You can request to reschedule, but you must notify icare NSW before the appointment date. If you don't, payments could be delayed.
Model answer and marking points
您可以申请改期，但是必须在预约日期之前通知 icare NSW。如果不提前通知，补偿金可能会延迟发放。
What an examiner checks here:
- can request to reschedule
- must notify icare NSW
- before the appointment date
- if not, payments could be delayed
Easy to miss: 'Delayed' is not 'stopped'; and 'must notify before the date' is an obligation, not a suggestion.
好，那我记住了：复查前先把医生证明交上去，要是那天不舒服就赶紧联系icare改期，免得补偿金被停。
Model answer and marking points
OK, I've got it then: submit the doctor's certificate before the review, and if I'm unwell on the day, contact icare straight away to reschedule, so my payments don't get stopped.
What an examiner checks here:
- understood / will remember
- submit doctor's certificate before the review
- if unwell that day, contact icare promptly to reschedule
- purpose: avoid payments being stopped
Easy to miss: Keep all three items of the summary and the purpose clause 'so the payments aren't stopped'.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- Medical certificate说“病假证明”或“医生证明”。
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went. Your first two full dialogues are marked free.
