Dạ con cảm ơn bác sĩ nhiều. Nếu con thấy tệ hơn, con sẽ gọi Lifeline liền, con sẽ cố gắng vượt qua giai đoạn này.

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.

Practise it

Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue 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.
