Reading tips

READING QUESTIONS is most important in READING. Must know the answer and the question to match.
Never read only the question is solving. The first thing is to skim all.

Type 1:For filling with the list of words: Reading the list of words first.

How to deal with the UNKNOWN words? Guess the word in context.

Type 2: Matching A-H
There are more matches than despcription.
Golden key: Find what is less.
Skim: Matches.
The typical of Matching: DO NOT ANSWER in ORDER.
Some are much easier than others.

Type 3: Yes , No, Not Given
NUMBERs
For NG: do not assume or infer too far. Only accept DIRECT INFERENCE.
Normally the word will only relate to the passage in which it locates.

Type 4: Complete table
Key words are important. Must find the words in the passage match with the HEADINGS of THE TABLE.
Use the other columns to confine areas.
(In filling 3 words, if too long could renounce ADJECTIVES.)

This is my worst performed type.
