Diagram Labelling WOC

Label a diagram by filling in missing words using exact words from the recording.

Overview

Your job is to listen carefully to the recording and fill in the blanks using the exact words you hear. There are no answer options given, so you must choose the correct words directly from the audio.

Sample Question

✅ Key Characteristics :


You are given a diagram that shows a place, object, or process.

Some labels on the diagram are missing, and you need to fill them in.

There are no options to choose from—you must write the correct words based on what you hear.

The speaker will describe the diagram in the recording (usually one person speaking).

This task is commonly found in Section 2 or Section 3 of the Listening test.

The diagram could show things like a map, machine parts, building layout, or steps in a process.

You need to listen carefully to match spoken details to the correct part of the diagram.

Instructions will clearly state a word limit (e.g., NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS).

You must write the answers using the exact words you hear in the recording.

Spelling must be correct, and the word should fit the label grammatically.

This task tests your ability to follow spoken explanations and understand visual information.

✅ Important Tips:

  • Use the pre-listening time to understand the diagram’s structure and predict what kind of words might fit
  • Write only the words you hear in the recording — do not paraphrase on your own
  • Ensure your spelling is correct, and follow the word limit strictly
  • The answers appear in the same order as they are heard in the audio
