BEFORE CLASS
One type of question that test takers often find tricky in the IELTS test is matching headings in the Reading test.

This question type requires you to match the heading in the question to the correct paragraph or reading section in the text. There will always be more headings than paragraphs or sections, so that some headings will not be used. It is also possible that some of the text may not be included in the task. This task type is used with texts that contain paragraphs that have clearly defined themes. It tests your ability to recognise the main idea in the paragraph and to identify supporting ideas.

The question type can be tricky because of the following reasons:

• 
  It takes a little more time than other questions to complete.
  
• 
  Often, there are more headings than paragraphs.
  
• 
  Some paragraphs don't need headings.
  
• 
  There are some similarities between headings.
  
• 
  Headings that only include specific details rather than the main idea may mislead you.
  
• 
  Some headings have the same words that are in a paragraph, but don't match.
  

How you approach this question type is personal, so you should choose the strategy that suits you best. We outline two strategies to help you match headings more successfully.
