IELTS Reading preparation

In this question type, you are given a list of headings. A heading will refer to the main idea of the paragraph or section of the text. You will then be asked to match the heading to the correct paragraphs or sections. There will always be more headings than there are paragraphs or sections, so that some headings will not be used. It is also possible that some paragraphs or sections may not be included in the task. This question type is used with texts that contain paragraphs or sections with clearly defined themes.

Matching headers will test your ability to recognise the main idea or theme in the paragraphs or sections of a text, and to distinguish main ideas from supporting ones.
