Analysis of IELTS Reading Test Sites

2022-09-07


The IELTS reading test points are divided into two categories, namely, the mastery of vocabulary and the overall understanding of the article. First of all, the IELTS reading questions are largely based on the examinee's vocabulary mastery. This includes the ability to transform and recognize synonyms (Paraphrasing), as well as the mastery of polysemy. IELTS reading articles often have a lot of professional vocabulary, but most of the professional vocabulary is the article carrier or as the positioning words, and will not exist in the form of test points. The test is some commonly used high-frequency vocabulary.

First of all, the IELTS reading questions are largely based on the examinee's vocabulary mastery.

IELTS reading articles often have a lot of professional vocabulary, but most of the professional vocabulary is the article carrier or as the positioning words, and will not exist in the form of test points. The test is some commonly used high-frequency vocabulary.
Polysemy is also a test point of vocabulary in IELTS reading. For example, the word shade appeared in the title of the article "Jian 5 Johnson's Dictionary". In addition to the shade, it also means small and subtle. The original text takes the second meaning of shade, which is unknown to the examinees, and replaces it with "subtlety" in the article.
Synonymic synonymy conversion may be between words, phrases, or sentences. Want to be able to better understand and grasp these words, focus on daily accumulation. After finishing the exercise, compare and analyze the synonyms and synonyms in the text, especially in the real topic, and organize them into a text for review. The same is true for polysemy. In the long run, I will be very familiar with and sensitive to the test words in the topic, and quickly match the topic information with the content of the article.
The second major test point of IELTS reading is to examine the examinee's overall grasp and application ability of the article, the structure and content of the question. We can find that most of the detailed questions can be directly located through locators, but some of the topic locators are not obvious. In the latter case, it is suggested that candidates should immediately change their problem-solving strategies, work hard on the structure of the article, and position themselves through the organizational characteristics of the article content and the meaning of the topic. The nature of an article determines its structure. Although the academic nature of the IELTS reading article determines its depth, on the other hand, it also determines the relatively fixed structure of the article. Because academia is rigorous, it has a set of strict norms in form. If you can accurately grasp the layout ideas and characteristics of various articles, you will be able to draw inferences from one instance and get twice the result with half the effort.
