Paragraph(Matching) readings

There are names, numbers, places and dates that will be easy to scan for.

• 
  There are other key words that should be easy to spot in the text.
  

• 
  Notes you made beside a paragraph of its main idea match information in one of the statements.
  

I give detailed explanations on this step of the strategy in the sample test below.

# 5 Once you’ve selected your statement, scan the text for key words. When you think you’ve identified the paragraph with matching information, read it in detail to check if you’re right.
Expect synonyms and paraphrasing to be used.

# 6 If you are right and can confirm the match, fill in the answer sheet and cross through the statement to eliminate it from further consideration.
If you’re wrong, continue scanning for the correct paragraph.

# 7 Repeat this process until you have matched all the statements to paragraphs.
