Screwed Up English Test

Just had an English proficiency test from LIA.
I can't believe how hard the listening part is.
It was filled with problems like this.

Man: How about our plan for Saturday?
Woman: The weather report says it will be rainy on Saturday, but Sunday will be sunny.

QUESTION: what is the woman saying?
a. [can't remember]
b. Sunday will be sunny
c. They have to postpone their plan until Sunday
d. [can't remember]

What the f***?!!! Which one should I pick?!!!

UPDATE
It's 611 and 84 for speaking! Thank God for the structure part!

UPDATE
It's 652 and 87.
I had some sleep.

  1. hmmm, i think you should take another test.. the first one is for your adaptation.. usually the second one should be better..
    and you should add a litle concentration as well..
    and how's the result?

  5. I think if u've been more familiar with the listening test, it shouldn't be a problem...PF is right, take the sunny answer..because the question is "what is the woman SAYING?", not "IMPLY?"...hahaha...

    anyway, 611, its a damn good result for a not-so-good-feeling after a test...so i think, u will pass the written neurology test..hahaha
