All Part 1 Questions

This page shows all the topics and all the questions for those topics that have been used from January 2006 to the present. It is now necessary to prepare for Part 1 by studying this page because examiners in China are sometimes now using past sets of questions and we don't know which past questions they will use. You can choose to just prepare the questions as listed on the page, 'Current Part 1 Questions' but it would be safer to also prepare for the questions that are listed on this page.

In your test, you will be asked questions from one of the first 3 topics (Topics 1 to 3), followed by two other topics.

Note that the topics and questions that are listed under, "Current Part 1 Questions" are not included here.
