How to Use This Answer Key
Use this key to review a completed, timed attempt rather than individual questions, since IELTS Reading is as much about time management across three passages as it is about comprehension. Where an answer is wrong, check whether the issue was misunderstanding the question type or simply not finding the right part of the passage in time.
