How to score higher
- 1
Questions first, then the text
In tasks 6–10 read the questions first: you will know what to look for and won’t read everything twice.
- 2
Look for synonyms
In matching tasks the words rarely repeat: “no phones” in the text becomes “without technology” in the option.
- 3
Check the grammar of the part
In 17–22 the part must fit the form, not just the meaning: after a comma — which, after a noun — that / who.
- 4
Don’t leave blanks
Wrong answers don’t cost points, so mark everything at the end, even if you have to guess.
