Summary Completion tasks are another important IELTS reading question type that require you to fill in blanks in a summary using words from the passage or a provided word list. Here’s how to approach these questions:
- Read the summary first: Before reading the passage, skim the summary to understand the main ideas and the missing information.
- Scan the passage: Instead of reading the entire passage, scan for the sections that match the summary. This saves time and helps you find the correct answers faster.
- Exact words: Be sure to use the exact words from the passage if required. Summarizing or paraphrasing may not be allowed depending on the instructions.
Taking an IELTS reading mock test will help you practice finding the right words quickly, which is key to succeeding in Summary Completion tasks.
