What would you suggest we do to improve the training workshop?

The workshop should be made compulsory for all JPC members. When presenting information, the

facilitators could use PowerPoint to make it more interesting and attractive. The workshop could

be divided into three or four sessions, with breaks in between. To make it more interesting, a group

discussion could be included towards the end of the workshop. Also, the facilitators may consider

reducing the content covered and making the workshop shorter. They may want to introduce games

into the workshop to make it relaxing and fun. They could also make the workshop activities more

around 200 words.

The Junior Police Call (JPC) was established in 1974. The JPC was set up with the purpose of

improving communication and mutual understanding between the police and the youth of Hong Kong.

The number of JPC members has increased considerably/sharply from 1975 to 2012. Currently, there

are 190 000 JPC members. The majority of them (90%) are secondary school students. The average

age of the JPC members is 15. Most members belong to the 15 to 17 age group.

A number of activities have been planned for the JPC members. In April, a leadership training camp

will be held in Sai Kung. The camp will be an action-packed, two-day overnight camp. In May, three

talks will be held at the Hong Kong Stadium. Various successful people will be invited to share their

life experiences with the JPC members. In June, a dragon boat race will be organised in Stanley.

Participants will compete in three races for the Dragon Boat Cup. Last but not least, in August, there

will be a poster competition. This year, the title of the competition is ‘Fight Youth Crime’.

I found the training workshop interesting. The training workshop has improved my reasoning skills.

The facilitators were well prepared. On the whole, I found the training workshop quite enjoyable. On

the minus side, the training workshop has not taught me much/anything about crime prevention nor has

it deepened my understanding of civic responsibility.

The workshop should be made compulsory for all JPC members. When presenting information, the

facilitators could use PowerPoint to make it more interesting and attractive. The workshop could

be divided into three or four sessions, with breaks in between. To make it more interesting, a group

Helping the Old People Live Safely and Happily

The old people in Hong Kong are concerned about a number of things. The majority of them are

available from the community. An estate agent in Yuen Long, Gordon Wu, now offers a commission-

Andrew Wong and Christina Lam, also lend a helping hand by giving pro bono services to the elderly

through a community-based legal advice scheme.

Many old people in Hong Kong do not feel safe at home. Age Concern, a charitable organisation,

and spy holes to their doors to make their apartments safer. The charity also provides a crime alert

service.

Another thing that the elderly are concerned about is the lack of opportunity to make friends. The

Hong Kong SAR Government is addressing this problem by providing district community centres

and neighbourhood centres for the elderly. The elders can enrol in leisure and recreational activities

organised by Age Concern.

Announcer: Test Paper 3. Part A. Situation. You are Vincent Ma, a police constable. You are attending a training session with other police officers.

In Part A, you will have a total of four tasks to do. Follow the instructions in the Question-Answer Book and on the recording to complete the tasks. You will find all the information you need in the Question-Answer Book and on the recording. You now have two minutes to familiarise yourself with Tasks 1 to 4.

(2 minutes) (beep)




Announcer: Task 1. You are now attending the first part of the training session. Inspector Wong will tell you about a murder case. Listen to her and fill in the note sheet below. You now have 30 seconds to study the task. At the end of the task, you will have one and a half minutes to tidy up your answers.

(30 seconds) (beep)

Inspector: Today, we are going to look at a murder case. This is a closed case,

meaning that the case has been resolved. But we will use this case as an example to show you how evidence is gathered and how to resolve the case. Now, I can see everyone has several note sheets on the desks. Did you have a chance to take a look at them?

Others: Yes. Inspector: Good. There are three photographs on page 1 of the note sheet. What I

want you to do is to listen to the information I’m about to give you and take down the important points. Okay?

Others: Okay. / Sure. Inspector: This case is about Wendy Chan, the teenage girl who was murdered

last year. Now, let’s take a look at the photographs we gave you. The first photograph was taken in Central.

Vincent: It was taken in winter because the people in the photograph are wearing thick clothes.

Inspector: Good observation, Vincent. The photo was taken on New Year’s Eve, which was the 31st of December. The crowd was there to watch the fireworks that night.

Vincent: Is Wendy the girl with a ponytail in the first photograph? Inspector: No, that’s her sister, who was with Wendy on New Year’s Eve. Wendy

is the one standing in front of her sister with a camera in her hand. Vincent: You mean the girl who is wearing a white jacket? Inspector: Yes, that is Wendy Chan. Vincent: So, Wendy was with her sister on New Year’s Eve. Mary: Wendy was a pretty girl. Inspector: And a rich girl too. She was last seen with Tommy Jones, apparently

her boyfriend, at a skatepark on New Year’s Day, which was the 1st of January.



Vincent: So, is this guy in the second photograph Tommy Jones? Inspector: Yes, that’s him. As you can see from the photograph, Tommy is not a

local. He’s British. He’s one of the suspects. The photograph was taken on New Year’s Day at a skatepark in Chai Wan. For those of you who are not familiar with skateboarding, erm … ‘skatepark’ is spelled S-K-A-T-E-P-A-R-K.

Vincent: Is there a skatepark in Chai Wan? Inspector: Yes, there is. Mary: So, they were celebrating New Year’s Day at the skatepark in Chai

Wan? Inspector: No, they were not celebrating anything. Quite the contrary, they were

seen arguing at the park. Mary: Puppy love! Vincent: So, Tommy had an argument with Wendy. There’s nothing unusual

about that. So, what makes Tommy Jones a suspect? Inspector: Two reasons. First, he was the last person to be seen with Wendy Chan

before she died. Vincent: Just let me note that down. He was the last person to be seen with

Wendy Chan before she died. Inspector: Second, as I said earlier, he had an argument with her. Now, let’s take

a look at the third photograph. It is a photograph of Peter Jones, the father of Tommy Jones.

Mary: When was this photo taken? Inspector: It was taken on the 29th of December, three days before Wendy was

murdered. It was taken at Wendy’s house. Vincent: So, Peter Jones knew Wendy Chan. Inspector: Yes, because he used to work for Wendy’s father, who is a wealthy

businessman in Hong Kong. Vincent: Why is he a suspect? Inspector: Because Peter has a history of violence. He is also greedy for money.

And on top of that, he disapproved of the relationship between Wendy and his son.

Inspector: Well, it’s time for a tea break now. I’ll tell you more about this case after the tea break.

Announcer: That is the end of Task 1. You now have one and a half minutes to tidy

up your answers. (1 minute 30 seconds)

Track 53 Time: 07:07 Announcer: Task 2.

You are now attending the second part of the training session. Inspector Wong will give you more information on the murder case. Listen to her and fill in the case report form below. You now have 30 seconds to study the task. At the end of the task, you will have one and a half minutes to tidy up your answers.

(30 seconds) (beep)

Inspector: Welcome back. Now could you please go to the second page of the

note sheet? Okay, in a few minutes, I will give you some information about the victim, Wendy Chan. As you listen, you should take notes on your note sheet. Okay?

Others: Yes. / All right. / Sure. Inspector: Right, let’s start with the case type in the top left-hand corner of the

note sheet. This case is a murder case. So, write ‘Murder’ in the blank next to ‘Case type’. Okay?

Others: Yes. Inspector: Our victim in this case is a Chinese female, eye colour, black, hair

colour, brown. Vincent: Sorry, Inspector Wong, did you say ‘brown’ for hair colour? Inspector: Yes, Wendy always dyed her hair brown. As you can see from the

picture, Wendy was quite tall. She was 168 cm tall. Vincent: 168 cm. That’s tall for a Chinese girl. Inspector: Well, she was also tall for her age. Wendy was only 15 years old. Her

friends said she was outgoing and sociable. She had many friends. Apparently, Wendy had a nickname at school. Her friends called her ‘Snoopy’. You know the comic character, Snoopy.

Vincent: What a cute nickname! How did she get the nickname? Inspector: Wendy loved drawing cartoons and she was very good at drawing

Snoopy. Anyway, Wendy was born on the 1st of July, 1998, which means that she was 15 years old when she died. Oh, didn’t I just mention that?

Others: Yes, you did. Inspector: Oops … anyway … okay, what’s next? Yes, nationality. Wendy held a

UK passport because she was born in London. In other words, Wendy was a UK citizen.



Vincent: Lucky girl. Inspector: So, put ‘UK’ for her nationality. Wendy was a student. So, put

‘Student’ under ‘Occupation’. Wendy studied at a Catholic school in Hong Kong called Hong Kong South Secondary School.

Vincent: Hong Kong South Secondary School … is that the one in Stanley? Inspector: Yes, it is. Now, is everyone following okay so far? Others: Yes. Inspector: Excellent. Vincent: Where did Wendy Chan live when she was alive? Inspector: She lived with her father, Paul Chan on Parker Hill. Lucky people. Her

address was Flat A, 38th Floor, North Tower, Parker Hill, Hong Kong. Vincent: Sorry, could you spell that? Inspector: ‘Parker’ is spelled P-A-R-K-E-R. Let me repeat the address. Flat A,

38th Floor, North Tower, Parker Hill, Hong Kong. Vincent: Inspector Wong, you said Wendy lived with her father on Parker Hill,

what about her mother? Were her parents divorced? Inspector: Good question, Vincent. Yes, her parents were divorced in 2005. That

was when Wendy was seven years old. Her mother is called Helen Cheung. Do you remember her?

Vincent: Helen Cheung? Wasn’t she an actress in Hong Kong? Inspector: Yes, she was. A famous one indeed. Wendy had a younger sister

named Lily Chan, who is studying in the UK at the moment. Now, let me tell you the last bit about the victim and this is the most important bit. Wendy went out with her friends on the 1st of January at about 3.00 pm. They went to see her boyfriend, Tommy Jones, at the skatepark in Chai Wan. Her friends noticed something strange about Wendy.

Vincent: What was strange about her? Inspector: Wendy was a very tidy girl and she took pride in her looks. When she

was last seen, she looked very tired. Also, she wasn’t wearing any make-up, which was unusual for Wendy who was very proud of her good looks. Her eyes were red as if she had been crying.

Vincent: So, she looked very tired and wasn’t wearing any make-up. Her eyes were red. What was she wearing when she was last seen?

Inspector: She was wearing a leather jacket and a dress. Staff: Time for lunch break, Madam. Inspector: Okay, let’s take a break for lunch. There’s a canteen in our building if

you don’t want to go out. I’ll see you guys back here in an hour.



Announcer: That is the end of Task 2. You now have one and a half minutes to tidy up your answers.

Listen to three recorded phone messages and complete the note sheet below and on the next page.

You now have 30 seconds to study the task. At the end of the task, you will have one and a half minutes to tidy up your answers.

(30 seconds) (beep)

Inspector: Welcome back. The afternoon session is the hardest section today,

so try to stay awake. I am going to play three recorded phone messages to you. These messages were found on the mobile phone of Wendy Chan on the day she was murdered. Please turn to page 3 of your note sheet. On your note sheet, you’ll find three message forms. As you listen to the messages, please take down the important information on the forms.

Vincent: Inspector Wong, where did you find the mobile phone of Wendy Chan?

Inspector: We found it in the skatepark in Chai Wan. She might have accidentally dropped her phone in the park. Okay, let me play the first recorded message now.

Electronic voice: Message 1. Received at 11.00 am. Male: Hey, Wendy. Pick up the phone. Um … I don’t know what to

say. I don’t know what happened last night. I’ve never been so angry before. I thought about the things you said last night. You were right. I’ve got to stop doing it. It’s ruining my life. Sweetheart, please … you know … you’re very special to me. It broke my heart to see you so sad. Please, give me a call.

Inspector: So, could anyone tell me who called Wendy? Yes, Vincent. Vincent: It’s her boyfriend, quite obviously. What’s his name? Others: Tommy. / Tommy Jones. Inspector: Could you explain why you think it’s him? Vincent: Well, first, it’s his accent. He has a British accent. Second, he

called her ‘sweetheart’. I mean, you don’t call a person ‘sweetheart’ unless you are going out with him or her.

Inspector: Yes, good observation. Did anybody notice anything else? Mary: Yes. He said it broke his heart to see her sad. Obviously, he

cared a lot about her.



Inspector: Very good. Now, you should put that down on your note sheet. The call is probably from Wendy’s boyfriend because he has a British accent. Also he called her ‘sweetheart’ and he said it broke his heart to see her sad. Got that? Good. Now, let’s listen to the second message.

Electronic voice: Message 2. Received at 4.15 pm. Male: So, voicemail again. Are you too busy to answer my calls?

Listen, you stupid brat! I know what you’ve done. You’re a smart girl. You listen to me carefully and I’m going to say this once! Go and ask your rich daddy for five million dollars or I’ll let your dirty little secret out. I can make you disappear without trace, you stupid girl. Tommy will be sad for a while but he will get over you. Come to see me tonight, alone.

Inspector: So, who can tell me who this caller is? Vincent: It’s probably Peter Jones. Inspector: What makes you think that, Vincent? Vincent: Again, it’s his accent. He has a British accent and he sounds

older. Second, he calls Wendy’s father ‘a rich daddy’, so he knows that he has a lot of money. The caller must know Wendy’s father quite well.

Inspector: Very good, Vincent. The message was probably from Peter Jones, Tommy’s father. The reason is, first, he has a British accent and he sounds older. He also knows that Wendy’s father has a lot of money. But the most important clue is, he disapproves of the relationship between Tommy and Wendy. He said, ‘Tommy will be sad for a while but he will get over you’. Based on all these reasons, we believe that the caller is Peter Jones. Now, let’s move on to the third message, shall we? Vincent, could you double-click the sound file?

Vincent: Yes. Okay, here it comes. Electronic voice: Message 3. Received at 11.00 pm. Female: Hey, are you sleeping? It’s 4.00 pm here, so it must be about

11.00 pm in Hong Kong. I tried to call you several times tonight but your phone was turned off. What’s going on? I need to speak to you. It’s about Dad. He called me yesterday morning. He sounded confused on the phone, you know, like he was troubled by something. I am worried because it was unlike dad. He mentioned something about Peter Jones. You and I know that Peter is bad news. He was complaining about



him. I really don’t know what’s going on. Anyway, it’s freezing here. Talk to you later.

Inspector: Now, who can tell me who left this message on Wendy’s phone? Yes, Vincent.

Vincent: The message was probably from Wendy’s sister, Lily Chan. Inspector: Good. What tells you the message is from her sister? Vincent: Two reasons. First, she mentioned the time difference. She

said it was 4.00 pm there, so it had to be 11.00 pm in Hong Kong. The time difference is seven hours. Lily is studying in the UK, as you mentioned before. So, it’s got to be her.

Inspector But how do you know it’s not a friend who’s living in the UK?

Vincent: Because she mentioned Wendy’s dad and Peter Jones. Inspector: Good observation. The message was probably from Wendy’s

sister, Lily in the UK, because she mentioned the time difference and she mentioned Wendy’s father and Peter Jones. Right, we’ll take a break now. When we come back …

Announcer: That is the end of Task 3. You now have one and a half minutes

to tidy up your answers. (1 minute 30 seconds)

(beep)




Listen to a recorded radio interview. In the interview, Detective Lee explains to the audience about the new developments in the murder case of Wendy Chan. As you listen, complete the note sheet below.

You now have 30 seconds to study the task. At the end of the task, you will have two minutes to tidy up your answers.

(30 seconds) (beep)

DJ: On tonight’s programme is Detective Lee, a detective and a forensic

scientist. Detective Lee is here to tell us about the new developments in one of the most intriguing murder cases in Hong Kong. The body of a young woman, named Wendy Chan, was found inside a plastic bag in Tai Po on the 4th of January. Her head was chopped off and her hands were tied up. There are two suspects in the case — Tommy Jones, the boyfriend of Wendy Chan, and Peter Jones, the father of the first suspect. Both of them are British nationals. Okay, Detective Lee, what are the new developments in the case?

Lee: Well, we’ve found the murder weapon. DJ: What is it? Lee: It is a special knife used by the British Army. We believe that the killer

used it to stab the victim to death. DJ: So, you’re saying that the murder weapon is a special army knife. Lee: Yes, that’s right. DJ: Where was it found? Lee: It was found in the victim’s apartment. DJ: So, in the apartment of Wendy Chan. What makes you think that the

army knife is the murder weapon? Lee: First, we’ve found bloodstains on the knife. DJ: Bloodstains? Lee: Yes, the knife is stained with blood that is from the victim, Wendy

Chan. Also, we’ve found that the size of the blade matches the size of the wounds on the victim’s body.

DJ: The size of the blade? Lee: You know, the blade of a knife. It’s spelled B-L-A-D-E. DJ: So, the size of the blade matches the size of the wounds on the victim’s

body.



Lee: Yes. And on top of that, we’ve found fingerprints on the knife. DJ: Whose fingerprints are they? Lee: The first suspect, Tommy Jones. DJ: Oh, dear! Detective Lee, what do you believe actually happened? Lee: At this point, we don’t know what exactly happened. However, we

believe that Tommy Jones killed Wendy Chan. We also have a reason to believe that jealousy was probably the motive for the killing.

DJ: Jealousy? Could you explain a bit more for our audience? Lee: Yes. We believe that Tommy Jones was jealous of Wendy Chan’s

friendship with his friend, Larry So. According to Tommy’s friends, Tommy was very possessive of Wendy. He didn’t like any men to talk to his girlfriend. So, when his friend, Larry, talked to Wendy at the skatepark on the 1st of January, Tommy became very angry. He sent two SMS messages to Larry So. The first message asked him to leave his girlfriend alone.

DJ: Right. Lee: The second message warned Larry that Tommy would kill Wendy if he

called her again. DJ: Where was the body of Wendy Chan found? Lee: Her body was found in a plastic bag in Tai Po. We’ve also found some

new evidence that may help us understand what went on in Tommy’s mind. We’ve made some interesting discoveries on Tommy’s home computer. First, we found a receipt for an army knife.

DJ: A receipt for an army knife? Lee: Yes, apparently he bought the army knife online. Second, we found a

warning letter to Larry So. DJ: Aha … a warning letter. Lee: The third thing was an article about how to use an army knife to kill

someone. DJ: Oh, dear! Well, we need to take a break now and when we come back,

Detective Lee will tell us more about how he got Tommy Jones to confess to the murder. Don’t go away.

Announcer: That is the end of Task 4. You now have two minutes to complete your

answers to Task 4 and to tidy up all your other answers. (2 minutes)

Track 56 Time: 06:41 Announcer: Part B. Situation.

You are Kitty Woo, a Secondary 5 student and a member of the Junior Police Call (JPC). You have just finished attending a training workshop at Police Headquarters in Wan Chai. Inspector Tam, the facilitator of the training workshop, will ask you to do a few things. You will listen to a conversation between you and Inspector Tam about the training workshop. Before the recording is played, you will have five minutes to study the Question-Answer Book and the Data File for Part B1 and the Question-Answer Book and the Data File for Part B2. Remember you must choose to do the tasks in either Part B1 or Part B2. Do not attempt both Parts B1 and B2. Complete the tasks by following the instructions in the Question-Answer Book that you choose and on the recording. You will find all the information you need in the Question-Answer Book, the Data File that you choose and on the recording. As you listen, you can make notes on page 3 of the Data File. You now have five minutes to familiarise yourself with the Part B Question-Answer Book and the Data File.

(5 minutes) (beep)

Announcer: The recording is about to begin. Turn to page 3 of the Data File.




Inspector: All right. I guess that’s all for our training session today. Thank you for coming. Now, before you go, please fill in the feedback form for us so that we know what you liked or disliked about today’s training. Please write your comments and suggestions at the bottom of the page. Okay?

Kitty: What a busy day for you, Inspector Tam. Inspector: Yeah, very busy indeed. Have you filled in the feedback form yet? Kitty: No, I haven’t. I don’t have the feedback form. Inspector: Here’s one for you. Kitty: Thanks. Let me see … hmm … workshop attended? What should I put

there? Inspector: Just put ‘Training Workshop for JPC Members’ and put today’s date

next to it. Today is the 3rd of March. Kitty: Okay … workshop attended, ‘Training Workshop for JPC Members,

comma, the 3rd of March’. Inspector: So, Kitty, did you enjoy the training session today? Kitty: Yes, I did. I found it very interesting. Inspector: I’m glad to hear that. Do you think the training workshop has

improved your reasoning skills? Kitty: Oh, absolutely. I particularly like the part on voicemail messages. I

mean, all of us were asked to give reasons to justify our choices. I thought that was quite challenging. I really liked it.

Inspector: Good. Do you think today’s workshop has taught you anything new about crime prevention?

Kitty: Hmm … I don’t think crime prevention was mentioned in the training workshop or did I miss that part? Detective Chan talked about violent crime in Hong Kong but I don’t remember if he said anything about crime prevention. Frankly speaking, I wasn’t paying much attention after the tea break. I felt a bit sleepy. Anyway, I don’t think the training workshop has taught me anything new about crime prevention.

Inspector: That’s okay. Do you think today’s training workshop has helped you understand your civic responsibility?

Kitty: Erm … no, not really. Although I remember Detective Wong saying something about civic responsibility after the tea break, I don’t think the workshop has deepened my understanding of civic responsibility.

Inspector: That’s fine. On the whole, was the training workshop enjoyable?



Kitty: Hmm … it was quite enjoyable. I’m glad I came today. This training workshop was really worth attending. In fact, I think you should make this workshop compulsory for all JPC members.

Inspector: That’s a good suggestion, Kitty, making it compulsory for all JPC members … hmm … I will think about it. Now, Kitty, let me ask you a few questions about JPC’s activities and programmes. Do you know that the JPC has an award scheme?

Kitty: Is that the one that encourages JPC members to work with the police? Inspector: Yes, that’s the one. Kitty: I have heard of the award scheme from other JPC members. Inspector: Then, do you know anything about JPC’s radio programme? Kitty: Yeah, there’s a radio programme every Friday on RTHK Channel 2. I

listen to it every now and then. Inspector: And do you know that the JPC is the largest youth organisation in

Hong Kong? Kitty: Really? That’s news to me. Inspector: Now, this one you should know. Do you know that the JPC has a

monthly newsletter? Kitty: Yes, I know because I’m going to write something for the May issue. Inspector: Now, besides making the training workshop compulsory for all JPC

members, what else would you suggest we do to improve the training workshop?

Kitty: Well, I think it’d be nice for the facilitators to present the information using PowerPoint. It’ll be more attractive.

Inspector: I agree. A PowerPoint presentation is definitely more interesting and attractive.

Kitty: It’s kind of hard for me to listen to long speeches. So, I suggest dividing the workshop into three or four sessions, with breaks in between. I mean, having breaks is important.

Inspector: So, presenting the information using PowerPoint and dividing the workshop into three or four sessions, with breaks in between … good suggestions.

Kitty: And I think the members will benefit more if there is a group discussion towards the end of the workshop.

Inspector: That’s a good point — include a group discussion towards the end of the workshop. What else can you think of?

Kitty: Perhaps you can introduce some games into the workshop. That should make the workshop more relaxing and fun.

Inspector: Good idea, Kitty.



Kitty: Inspector Tam, I want to ask you something about the poster competition.

Inspector: Sure. Kitty: Have you decided what to call the poster competition? Inspector: Yes, I have. I have decided to call it ‘Fight Youth Crime’. We aim to

raise young people’s awareness of youth crime through this competition.

Kitty: Hang on, just let me make a note of that — to raise young people’s awareness of youth crime.

Inspector: Another aim is to help them understand the concept of crime prevention.

Kitty: Right. So, when is the poster competition? Inspector: In August. We will accept entries for the competition from the 1st of

June onwards. Kitty: And who can enter the competition? Inspector: The competition is open to all JPC members and all secondary school

students in Hong Kong. It will be divided into two groups — a junior group for teenagers who are 12 years old or below, and a senior group for teenagers who are 13 years old or above. Right. Kitty, I’m running a bit late for a meeting. Thank you for coming to the training workshop today. Oh, make sure that you hand in the feedback form before you leave.

Kitty: Of course. See you soon, Inspector Tam. Inspector: Goodbye. Announcer: That is the end of the listening component of this test. You will have

one hour and fifteen minutes to complete the written tasks in either Part B1 or Part B2. An announcement will be made when time is up.
