A full-length classic HSK 5 paper with the official shape: 100 questions in 125 minutes across listening (45), reading (45) and writing (10). The two short texts in writing are reviewed against a rubric rather than scored automatically. It is original practice material written for Hanlu, not an official or past paper.

This is unofficial practice material written for HSK Guide. It is not a past paper and is not endorsed by any examination authority.The section lengths, the timings and the scoring below are HSK Guide’s own practice settings, chosen so that a wrong answer points at one identifiable skill. They do not describe any examination authority’s rules — confirm those with your test centre.
Sections
3 sections, 100 questions, 115 minutes of section time.
Forty-five questions in two parts. Part 1 (1–20): short dialogues, one question each. Part 2 (21–45): longer dialogues (21–30), then passages that each carry two or three questions (31–45). Each recording plays once.
Audio rules for this section
Forty-five questions in three parts. Part 1 (46–60): four passages with gaps; choose the best of four options for each gap marked ★. Part 2 (61–70): choose the sentence that agrees with each short passage. Part 3 (71–90): five passages, four questions each.
Ten questions in two parts. Part 1 (91–98): put the words in order to make one sentence. Part 2 (99–100): write two short texts of about 80 characters, one with five given words and one about a picture. Part 2 is not scored automatically: after you submit, open each text in response assessment, where it is reviewed against the writing rubric; each explanation gives a model text.
Questions, options and answers are not shown on this page — the paper is only meaningful if you meet it for the first time inside the timer.
Before you start
The timer runs on the server, so refreshing will not give you extra time. Listening audio plays a fixed number of times, as set for this practice paper.
Total: 125 minutes · section time adds up to 115 min.
No timer. Audio can be replayed freely and answers are explained immediately.
The play count and the seek and pause rules are stored on each section rather than hard-coded in the player, so an editor can change them without a deployment.
Your result
A score is the least useful part of a mock examination. The report is built to change what you study tomorrow.
A score per section and per skill, so a listening problem cannot hide behind a good reading result.
Accuracy broken down by question type — matching, cloze, ordering, true/false — because they fail for different reasons.
The exact words the wrong answers tested, taken from the diagnostic tags on each question.
The patterns behind the wrong answers, each linking straight to its grammar lesson.
Where you stalled. A slow correct answer is a different problem from a fast wrong one.
