This passage came out today in my GT reading section 3. Same passage but different questions!

Marina 6 years 9 months

7. All clothing is guaranteed to arrive WITHIN two months. And you can see in this sentence: Surface Mail (allow a MINIMUM of two months for delivery). So It's false because you have to wait for MINIMUM (not maximum) 2 months, so the clothes will arrive in 2 months onwards, so this option won't be guaranteed within 2 months.

7/7.

Ammad 7 years 8 months

So true.

1. No guarantee mentioned. 2. overnight option available. So the answer is 'NO'.

Reena Sapkota 7 years 11 months

The last statement is not clear...

Shail 7 years 11 months

You are right. 4) False 3) Children T-shirt? 6. and 7. should be 'Not Given'.

Deepuz 8 years 1 month

I agree that it mentioned about pocket, but not mentioned about (how many pockets are there). That's why it should be NG.

Sana 8 years 4 months

Where can I find tougher tests for General Training IELTS reading for practice?

Mukul 8 years 4 months

Piece of cake.

FB Bond Tough 8 years 5 months

That is 'NG', because it's their mistake. You can write NOT GIVEN.

FB Bond Tough 8 years 5 months

You are right. 4) False 3) Children. 7-shirt? It would be T-Shirt... It is a typing mistake.

Ram Murti 8 years 5 months

In answer 4, it is mentioned about the pocket. So how it is possibly not given? 'False' is the answer.

Deepak Bhati 8 years 6 months

Hi, I have a confusion about question 2. The option is available in men's shirt so its answer should have been given as 'F'. There is no option for Children's shirts, hence it should have been 'NG' instead of 'F'. Requesting for comments and explanation.

Honey 8 years 6 months

Question 3 asked for shirts, but in the passage, it does not mention children's t-shirts. How can both be compared? Can someone explain, please?

Aap 8 years 9 months

The answer is 'Not Given' because they have not mentioned how many colours. They have just given in different colours.

Ahmed 9 years 1 month

I think this exam is not for English language evaluation. It is has something related to the logic of thinking that are different between people.

Meng 9 years 2 months

Got the wrong answers for 2 and 4. Though its 'false', the question is the number of pockets, it indicated 4 sizes. Since it is not mentioned, the answer is 'not given'.

Azgar Khan 9 years 4 months

Can anybody explain question number 2 and its answer?

Shivang 9 years 6 months

I also have on 30th, I think with you, we will try to chat.. lol.

Ademola 9 years 6 months

The answer to question no. 4 is 'Not Given'. There is no place where such statement was mentioned. In fact, there wasn't anyplace where child's jacket was mentioned.

Nahid 9 years 6 months

Strong pockets, not how many pockets.

Sara 9 years 6 months

I find the reading section of IELTS harder and harder. Please tell me what I should do as after 2 days my test will be conducted.

Abdul 9 years 7 months

The answer to the 4th question must be 'False'. I don't understand how come it is saying not given! It is clearly saying that "it has large strong pockets". So it should be 'False'. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Natalia 9 years 7 months

No, 6 & 7 are FALSE: $7.95 - regular post, not special next-day delivery; allow a minimum of two months for delivery.

Anne 9 years 9 months

I found that the reading passages are getting harder and harder... Heeeei.

Manju 9 years 10 months

Answers to question 6 and 7 should be 'Not Given'.
