How to approach the different task types
Make sure that your answers keep to the word limit stated in the test paper. For
example, if you are asked for NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS, then do not write
more.
With multiple choice questions, try and use common sense to eliminate some of the
answer options.
When matching headings to paragraphs, read the headings first. Then read the first and
last sentence of each paragraph. This is often enough to match headings correctly.
When gap-filling, read the gapped text carefully and think about both the meaning and
grammar of suitable words to fill the gaps. Note down your ideas in the gap on the
question paper so that when you read the text you are then reading to check your ideas.
Never leave a gap blank. You do not lose marks for incorrect answers.
In the test
Do not forget that you must write your answers directly on your answer sheet. You will
not be given extra time to do this at the end of the 60-minute reading test.
Remember that your written answers need to be grammatically accurate and spelled
correctly. You will lose marks for incorrect spelling.
Think about skipping difficult questions and coming back to them later. If you do this,
make sure you highlight the questions you skip so that you can find them again.
Good luck in your reading test!
