Intensive reading is reading that requires intense concentration and the unravelling of difficult sentences and technical vocabulary. IELTS reading is intensive.
The importance of extensive reading cannot be stressed enough. Simply doing IELTS reading papers is not enough for most.
While studying, if you spend all your time ploughing through past papers (intensive), your score will increase. However, a solid study timetable containing extensive and intensive reading will give your English the extra lift it needs.
Find a reader, make sure it is the correct level and read for 30/40 minutes per day as well as doing past papers.
In the late nineteenth century hundreds of clubs formed across the United States devoted to the reading of Shakespeare. From Pasadena, California, to the seaside town of Camden, Maine; from the isolated farm town of Ottumwa, Iowa, to Mobile, Alabama, on the Gulf coast, Americans were reading Shakespeare in astonishing numbers and in surprising places. Composed mainly of women, these clubs offered the opportunity for members not only to read and study Shakespeare but also to participate in public and civic activities outside the home.
It is very important that you practice real IELTS test questions for this module.
Reading is the second part of the IELTS test, and takes 60 minutes. It consists of three or sometimes four reading passages of increasing difficulty, and there is a total of 40 questions to answer.
Passages are taken from books, newspapers, magazines and the topics are very diverse, from scuba diving to space exploration. Passages progress in difficulty, with first being the easiest and fourth the hardest.
The directions are in Chinese, but all the Reading Practice and Answer Keys are in English.
