Look out for key words when scanning the reading paragraphs. They will help you find the answers. • أبحث عن الكلمات الرئيسية عند المرور علي فقرات القراءة . وسوف تساعدك هذه الكلمات على العثور على الإجابات.
Check if there is any emphasis in the questions. Eg. Is an arrow pointing to a picture? Is a word in italics or underlined? If so, that is where you will find help to get the answer. • تحققمما إذا كان هنالك أي تركيز في الأسئلة . على سبيل المثال. ه ل يشير السهم إلى صورة؟ ه ل الكلمة مكتوبة بخط مائل أو مخططة؟ إذا كان الأمر كذلك ٬ فان هذا هو المكان الذي يمكن ان تجد فيه مساعدة للحصول على الجواب.
If you are not sure of the answer, one will be an obviously wrong one. • Eliminate that answer first, and work from there, eliminating the wrong ones until you make the best choice. • إذا لم تكون متأكد من الإجابة ٬ سوف تكون إحدي الإجابات هي الإجابة الخاطئة. قوم بمسح هذه الإجابة اولا ٬ وابدأ العمل من هنا ٬ وامسحي الإجابة الخاطئة حتى يمكنك تحقيق أفضل خيار.
