IELTS 12/14/2019 - USA GT

[Dev27]

It was A based on the last few line of the paragraph which told about previous event happening in so n so dates like dat something it was mentioned.

and i think this was the very 1st question of that para info matching ryt?

It was the very first question for information matching in last section and the first paragraph (A) mentioned the event .....is that right

Yes i also answered it as A

 

[adnanahmad01]

37- False ( media related)
38- true (four times)
39- true
40 - NG ( action in future)

Is this the ryt numbering ... this probably is ques number 34-37.

Section 3 started with ques number from 29 to 40 ryt?

First 5 of them were paragraph matching information then next 4 were T/F/NG and then last 3 name matching. I hope I am correct

I wrote it in NJ. Listening section 2 part 2 was on mapping for me

I wrote it in Toronto (455 Spadina), It seems that some parts of our exam were different.

 

[Milan1211]

What did you guys get in writing part 2 was it advantage and disadvantages of higher fuel price tax ?

Increase the petrol tax to improve traffic and pollution

Same for me as well, I wrote my exam in Toronto.

 

[Milan1211]

I dint had any 1506 year for this one. The first passage talked about original event prior to Tuysunga that was similar and original event so answer was A.

well that's strange! May be questions were different then!

 

[adnanahmad01]

well that's strange! May be questions were different then!

Its not different it was same passage... and yes the 1st ans to the paragraph matching is A. (passage tells about similar event in past)

 

[Milan1211]

Did u guys find the reading section 3 (Tusunga Event") to be difficult. I was surprised with the difficulty level of 3rd part and feel have made lots of mistake over there.

Yes, it was relatively difficult compared to what I have seen in Cambridge practice tests!
Regardless of difficulty, this passage has appeared in quite a few IELTS exam. I came across some historical posts talking about the Tunguska event in IELTS reading.

oh is it..okie.. will have to go through previous IELTS in case need to write again..but it seems from discussion in the group that even though the reading was difficult... mostly ans are correct and can hope atleast 7 in reading band..

 

[Milan1211]

The answers I remember in section 3 are :-
Matching info

Original event similar to tusunga event - A
Wit issues of the event - C
Geographical destruction - B
evidence expected but not found - E
explanation not accepted , later accepted - G

SURENDRA VERMA - A (something related to thunder storm)
Then E OR D (one for meteors and the other for comets )

I think you we may have different order of the passage as an original event similar to Tunguska was not in A for me. It was somewhere after Surendra Verma. So should be in F or something.

Geographical destruction was for sure mentioned in B and C. In para C, it was to represent what scientists found when he visited the site (like match box-shaped trees and all). I did a mistake in this one - wrote C which I think is wrong. B is the correct one.

Correct

I may be wrong but I read it in I think the second last paragraph that similar event happened in ~1506 and that too in late June so I wrote that Para!

Yes I’m guessing the order of the passage must be different
