HSK 2 practice tests: free listening mock tests

The HSK 3.0 listening paper for HSK 2 has 25 questions in three parts and takes about 17 minutes. Every recording plays twice, every question has three options, and each part opens with a worked example. The printed paper shows pinyin above every word, and so do our tests.

Questions 1–5

One sentence, then pick the matching photo from three

Questions 6–15

Two-line dialogue, then pick the matching picture from a set of six (6–10) or five (11–15)

Questions 16–20

Two-line dialogue between a man and a woman, then a question

Questions 21–25

Four-line dialogue, then a question

In the picture part, each dialogue matches one picture and each picture is used once, so the last dialogue of a set can be answered by elimination. The clue is often something the picture shows without naming it. Our review screen shows the words that point to each answer.

• HSK 2 listening practice: daily audio at your level
• HSK 2 word list: the 500 words the exam draws on
• All HSK mock tests

• Each paper follows the official HSK 3.0 sample paper: the same three parts and question counts, every recording played twice with the same pauses, and a worked example before each part.
• Every item uses the official HSK 3.0 word list for levels 1–2, the 500 words. A second AI model has to answer each question from the recording and agree with our key, and a vision model checks every picture against its question.
• The items are written and voiced with AI, then checked and heard in full by a native Chinese speaker before we publish them.

These are practice papers, not official papers. Scores are estimates. Fluentide is not affiliated with CTI (Chinese Testing International), which runs the HSK.
