READING

TIPS for reading:

• Read carefully and slowly, try to find the evidence in the text.
• Underline the evidence.
• do more reading practice tests at B1 level
• read the instructions carefully before you start each section
• think about the timing - spend about 5 minutes on each part
• study these vocabulary topics
• study grammar at B1 level

Look carefully at the instructions for each part. They will tell you what to do. 

• Look at the titles of the longer texts. The titles will help you to understand what the text is about and where it comes from. 

• Read the texts and the questions carefully, and make sure that you answer the questions. Don’t just choose an answer because you see one word. 

• If you don’t know the meaning of a word, don’t worry. Try to guess what it means. 

• Answer all the questions, even if you’re not sure. Always choose an answer for each multiple-choice question. 

• Take your time and don’t hurry. There is plenty of time to answer all of the questions.
