Cambridge Practice Tests for ielts

PART 2
Question 15-21
Questions 22-29
Suggested approach
• Read the task rubric carefully. Note that you
have to make a judgement about the list of
statements.
• Note the difference between information that is
false (i.e. the passage says the opposite) and
information that is not given (i.e. not stated in
the passage at all).
• Read question 22. This statement is about
overnight accommodation.
• Scan the paragraph headings for a reference to
accommodation. The first heading is
“Accommodation”
• Skim through this section of the text to see if
there is any information about how long you
can stay at the club for. At the end of the
section it states: “long and short stays
welcomed”. So the answer to question 22 is
True.
• Repeat this procedure with questions 23-29.
