help you.
Think about words that often go together (collocations), for
example: to catch a bus.

Strategy:
R
ead the four possible answers for each question
carefully.
Scan the text quickly to find the information you need
and underline the part of the text where you think the
answer is.
Then read the section more carefully in order to find
which option is correct.
Remember that the words in the question and the
words in the text may be different. Make sure you
identify words in the text which mean the same as the
question.
Make sure you know why the other options are not
correct (e.g. it may be true but the text doesnt say it;
the text says the opposite; the text says it but it does
not answer the question).
