Hello. My name is Emma, and in today's lesson, I am going to teach you some very good tips

0:07

on how to succeed on the reading module of the IELTS. So this video is for anyone who

0:14

is taking the IELTS. This video will really help you learn about some of the question

0:19

types and how to do well on them. So let's get started.

0:25

My very first tip is very important. When you're practicing doing the IELTS, when you're

0:31

preparing for the IELTS, one way to prepare is to start learning synonyms. Now, what's

0:39

a "synonym"? A "synonym" is a copy of another word where the meanings are the same, but

0:46

the words are different. So an example: "intelligent" and "smart". These are synonyms. They have

0:54

the same meaning, but they're different words.

0:57

Now, why should you learn different synonyms for the IELTS? Well, one very good reason

1:03

is oftentimes, on the IELTS you will have a text or a reading passage, and then, after

1:11

that you will have a bunch of questions. Now, sometimes, in the questions, you need to look

1:16

for certain information in the reading passage. So you read a question, and you need to find

1:23

the answer in the reading passage. Now, one way to do this is looking at keywords. You

1:28

might see a keyword in the question. And you're looking for that same word in the reading

1:33

passage. But they often don't use the same words in the question and the reading passage.

1:39

Oftentimes, they will use synonyms. So for example, maybe in the question the keyword

1:47

is "intelligent". In the reading passage, the word that you'll actually need to find

1:54

is "smart". So by knowing synonyms, you'll be able to do the questions a lot faster,

2:00

and you'll be able to find information faster. And on the IELTS, time is very important,

2:06

so you want to be able to do things very quickly.
