00:00:04.728 --> 00:00:10.150
Here’s what the HSK 4 exam asks of you,
and how to sit a full practice paper.

00:00:11.300 --> 00:00:16.280
HSK 4 adds a thousand new words
and seventy-six grammar points:

4
00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:18.930
the syllabus behind this paper.

5
00:00:19.467 --> 00:00:25.897
The paper is a hundred questions in ninety-five minutes
of testing, plus ten minutes for filling in your details.

6
00:00:26.433 --> 00:00:31.529
Reading is forty questions in forty minutes,
and writing asks for sentences,

7
00:00:31.569 --> 00:00:34.143
including one about a picture.

8
00:00:34.700 --> 00:00:39.353
The listening plays once, for the whole room: no pausing,

9
00:00:39.393 --> 00:00:42.250
no replays and no going back.

00:00:43.400 --> 00:00:50.000

with the same number of items and the same timings.

15
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:14.304
Practice is untimed, with replays.

audio that plays once, and no going back.

00:01:26.166 --> 00:01:30.943
