Exercise 51: IELTS Reading: 'paragraph' questions
There are 2 types of questions that ask you about paragraphs:
1. Paragraph headings - match the sub-headings with the paragraphs.
2. Specific information - which paragraph contains the following information? Try
an example.
For 'paragraph headings' questions, you need to find the main idea of each
paragraph. I usually recommend starting with the shortest paragraph first.
For 'specific information' questions, remember that one paragraph can contain
more than one piece of information (e.g. "paragraph A" could be the answer for
questions 1 and 2). Some paragraphs may not contain any information, so it
doesn't help to start with the shortest one.
Both types of question are easier if you do the other question sections first (gap-fill,
true/false/not given etc.). You will then be more familiar with the text, and you might
even remember where some of the 'paragraph' answers are.
