Page 41 A DETAILED LOOK AT THE TASKS
Part One
This is a matching task. There are four short texts on a related theme (e.g. descriptions of a group of products, or advertisements for jobs) or a single text divided into four sections. Although the context of each text will be similar, there will also be information that is particular to each text. The texts are labelled A – D. Candidates are presented with a set of seven items which are statements related to the texts. They are expected to match each statement with the relevant text.
Questions in this part tend to focus mostly on the identification of specific information and detail, although some items may focus on gist. Preparation
In order to prepare for this part it would be useful to
familiarise students with sets of short texts that have a similar theme. Newspapers, magazines and catalogues are useful sources in which to find such texts. Students should be encouraged to look closely at all the information,
particularly as short texts often include additional snippets of information on separate lines (such as prices, dates, titles, measurements, etc.) that can easily be overlooked.
: Students could be set questions which test global reading skills prior to reading the texts, so that they are trained to think of who a text is written for and why it was written. Part Two
This is a matching task, comprising a text that has had six sentences removed from it and a set of seven sentences labelled A – G. Candidates are required to match each gap with the sentence which they think fits in terms of meaning and structure. The first gap is always given as an example so that candidates have five gaps left to complete. When they have finished this part there will be one sentence left which they have not used.
The texts for this part will have been chosen because they have a clear line of thought or argument that can still be discerned by the reader with the sentences removed. In doing the task, therefore, students should be trained to read through the gapped text and the list of sentences first, in order to get an idea of what it is about. Having done that, they should be reassured that there is only one sentence that fits each gap.
This part tests understanding of text structure as well as meaning and the gaps will be reasonably far apart so that candidates can successfully anticipate the appropriate lexical and grammatical features of the missing sentence. Candidates can be expected to be tested on a variety of cohesive features with both a backward and forward
reference, sometimes going beyond the sentence level. Thus, while selecting the appropriate sentence for a gap, they should read before and after the text to ensure that it fits well. At the end of this part, they should read through the entire text, inserting the gapped sentences as they go along, to ensure that the information is coherent. Number of
