Matters needing attention in initial test
Listen, they will have an audition process and ask you to wear headphones. You should take this opportunity to adapt to the volume as much as possible, and adjust the length of the earphone cable and the comfort of the earphone. Then you will see the answer sheet, and foreigners will carefully introduce the correct filling of the answer sheet. Listen carefully. If you don't understand or are not sure, you must raise your hand and ask, because it is useless to get the best score in the exam if you fill in the wrong form. At 9 o'clock sharp (there is a clock in the classroom), listening will start on time. The listening test paper is pink and beautiful. You should write down the exam number and name on the paper.
Don't open the test paper until the recording asks you to open it (in order to avoid unnecessary trouble for yourself, please follow all instructions of the examination room and examiner). Don't take off your headphones after listening, because the recording will continue to remind you of the time limit for copying and will prompt "two minutes left" When the time is up, you must stop writing at once, otherwise it will be regarded as cheating. Put the pen on the table, turn the answer sheet to the opposite side, and wait for the listening test paper to be taken away. (Listening and reading use the front and back of the same answer sheet)
read
The reading test should start at around 9: 40. Reading paper is soft yellow, which is not as good as listening, but it is acceptable. (Note, you can't expect to hear the bell of the start or end of the exam, because there is no fixed start time for reading and writing exams, and each classroom will announce it according to the distribution of its own examiner's papers, but the reading exam time of 60 minutes is guaranteed). Pay close attention to reading time. The examiner will remind you when there are 30 minutes 15 minutes, 5 minutes and 2 minutes left. Don't panic, do it at your own pace. Finally, if it is too late, think about Mr. Hao Bin's method and leave no room! Foreigners will stop on time, so the rules are the same as listening.
(Special note: If you are lucky enough to see a word that you can't spell in the reading article, don't excitedly turn over the answer sheet to correct it, because it is not allowed. You can play it by ear, but don't waste too much time on listening, because reading time is very urgent. The examiner will take away the reading papers and answer sheets.
writing
It's about 10: 50, and the writing exam is about to begin. The answer sheet for writing is white, while the test paper is light gray (heavy color). The writing time is also 60 minutes. The examiner will prompt you once in the past 20 minutes, because you should have finished writing your paper by this time. But in fact, according to the experience of domestic candidates, according to this time regulation, it is not necessarily so rigid. As long as there is feeling in a big composition, 30-35 minutes is enough. It is precisely the small composition that should be paid attention to, and all the rules and trends should be written completely.
(Special note: Don't turn the page directly after writing the first page of the composition in a hurry, because the answer sheet of the composition has 4 pages, so pay attention to the titles of task 1 and task 2. Also, the answer sheet is really like what Teacher Xiao Xin said. The lines used by examiners are similar to those written by candidates, but a little thicker. Be careful not to write. If you have time, you'd better read it through to see if there are any clerical errors. There are 15 minutes, 5 minutes and 2 minutes, and the examiner will remind you again. During the written test, the examiner will send your identity back to you. Finally, I will take away your writing test paper and answer sheet and send you the time of the oral test (an A4 piece of paper).

oral examination
Go to the waiting room, find your name on a row of A4 papers and sign in (and write down the arrival time). Special note: There are some handwritten letters on that A4 paper, which are the initials of your oral examiner. After entering the waiting room, you can go in and out at will, but you can't stay in the building, let alone make a phone call in the building. But be sure to return to the waiting room 15 minutes before your exam, because the appraisal will begin at that time. A security guard and a teacher (from China) will check your identity, and then you will sit in a fixed corner of the classroom and wait for another teacher (from China) to call your test number (note that they usually only call your test number, so remember your test number). Don't go out of the waiting room for a while, because if you are called and you happen to be out, it will be very troublesome.
Don't panic when you see foreigners, they will greet you in a friendly way (personally, it's to relax you and get familiar with your pronunciation, so respond, not just giggle). Before entering the room, the examiner will ask you to turn off your mobile phone, put it in your bag and put it on the stool at the door. You can only enter the room if you have an identity. At the beginning, there will be an introduction about the examination process that he saw, which is not a problem. Then he will ask you if you have started. After you agree, he will turn on the recording equipment so that the oral exam can really begin.
