ouch. I'm worried about my writing. I didn't mention the government sees taking care of children as a job. i used a lot of words like subsidy, allowance ,and money instead....
My structure is as follows:

second paragraph:
1. government should subsidize the family, especially for the impoverished ones, to ease their financial burdens
2. if parents are able to get more money, they will be more willing to buy nutritious for their children, which is beneficial to children's growth

third paragraph：
however, disadvantages.....
1. some parents may overly-rely on the money and reluctant to apply for jobs.....----> high unemployment rate
2. some irresponsible parents may well misuse the money and children cannot get benefits from this policy

so overall，I disagreed. Is it off the topic? I’m so concerned because i didn't mention a lot about "mothers" and i don't know if i could paraphrase "salary" as subsidy,allowance, money....

Anyone remember questions from 27-30 and 14th

It was something on these lines.

14. For your trip, you should be prepared for

a) insects
b) climate
c) mosquitoes

and during the listening she mentioned, it gets really hot and could be a challenge.

 

[KaneddaSapna]

For listening, The 1st answer is Maciver,
37th is weather. All my other one/two word answers are same as djluvrocks.
The score of the musical section will be the deciding factor as other sections were easy to medium difficulty.

Reading Questions -
Egyptians - Brought Prisoners
P something - Learnt to blow glass
Germans - work affected due to political reasons
Venetians - ?
Syrians - ?

Choose Paragraphs -

• The old glass technique that is still used today
• spread or started the export of glass to other countries (Romans)
• Effected the job prospects of the glass industry. Something like that (Last paragraph)

Thank you for contributing!

The old glass technique that is still used today - pipe
Only riches and royal could afford glass made from this technique - blowing

So, the word with P is Phoenician and I believe there was Italian too.

In last questions that involve matching -

Phoenician would match with discovering the glass making unintentionally. (This was discussed in first paragraph of the text)
Venetians - Were forced to move or relocate (In last para where Murano was discussed)

It appears the test version of Glass was taken from below link as it has covers pretty much all the paras

"Egyptians - Brought Prisoners" I thought it was something about a war, but I forgot...... maybe the same choice?

"P something - Learnt to blow glass " I pick Syrians as the first one who knew blowing air technique. I remember the article mentioned sometime around 4000 years , which was the first time this skill discovered.....if I'm not mistaken....

 

[Ieltsrunner]

Hello all,

As you know, IELTS GT in North America is different from rest of the world, let's use this thread to share our June 2, 2018 test responses in L R S W format.

Good luck to all!

Sorry if this is wrong place to ask this question.

How IELTS is different in North America? I heard it’s same across the globe.

I am planning to appear for IELTS in North America and just want to know some information about it.

Thanks in advance

"P something - Learnt to blow glass " I pick Syrians as the first one who knew blowing air technique. I remember the article mentioned sometime around 4000 years , which was the first time this skill discovered.....if I'm not mistaken....

Even I chose "Syrian" -- Learnt to blow glass ..because they were the first to learnt that technique. It was mentioned in 3rd paragraph.
