Hello ExamSeekers,

It’s been a while since I post something about the C1 Advanced, but I decided to update some old content before bringing anything new. I wanted to check if the exams were all up to date and if I could add an extra tip for you!

Part 1 of the C1 Advanced is the Multiple-choice cloze. It is divided into 2 pages. On the first page, you have a text with 8 numbered gaps, each of which represents a word or phrase. On the second page, there are the possible answers for each of the gaps. You have to choose one of the four alternatives (A, B, C or D). These possible answers are probably related to vocabulary (idioms, collocations, shades of meaning, phrasal verbs, fixed phrases, etc.). You get 1 mark for each correct answer.

Listen to this episode to get some tips! This episode is also available as a blog post: https://examseekers.wordpress.com/2019/05/07/ee-014a-c1-advanced-reading-and-use-of-english-part1
