There is no pause between the three responses, and there is only a five— second pause between each of the items. The questions and the responses are not written in your test book. In your test book, the items look like this: 21. Mark your answer on the answer sheet. 22. Mark your answer on the answer sheet. 23. Mark your answer on the answer sheet. etc. This is the only part of the test that has three answer choices, not four.
