"IELTS Reading Practice Tests: IELTS Guide for Self-Study Test Preparation for IELTS for Academic Purposes" by IELTS Success Associates contains three complete IELTS practice reading tests. Each practice reading test in this book has three passages, just like the actual IELTS Academic Exam, so there are nine reading passages in the publication for you to study. All of the reading passages in the book are on factual, informative, or academic topics, which is also like the format of the actual IELTS test. The practice exams have questions of all of the types that you will see on the real IELTS reading test, so the book has multiple choice questions; form, diagram and summary completion; dentification of the writer's views; matching features and headings; and gap-fill questions. The tips at the beginning of the book explain the format of the IELTS reading test and tell you what to expect on your exam day. Practice Reading Test 1 in the publication is in tutorial mode, so it includes tips and suggestions at the beginning of each section to give you strategies to help you answer all of the types of questions on the reading tests. There is a complete answer key with in-depth explanations for each answer, so that you can understand why each answer is the correct one. The explanations give you additional tips to help you improve your test-taking technique.
