This part is intended for intensive reading and helps candidates review comprehensively reading, translation, cloze, and writing by using intensive reading as a link. Part is Reading Comprehension Part B, which includes three optional question types required by the syllabus and four sample questions, divided into four sections for practice. Each section includes problem-solving guidance, simulated questions, solutions to simulated questions, and translations. When solving reading comprehension questions, candidates must combine the summarized problem-solving strategies to gain a deeper understanding. Part contains 15 sets of simulated tests, mainly for extensive reading. It is recommended that candidates complete each set in about 60 minutes. After each set of questions, there is an explanation that aims to provide a concise overview, leaving the rest for candidates to think and summarize on their own. Candidates do not need to read the articles intensively; they are sufficient as reading comprehension practice. Of course, candidates should also spend more time on articles that are more challenging or relatively new. Candidates can also alternate between Part and Part . Part consists of 3 self-assessment tests and solutions, including one optional question type for Reading Comprehension Part B. After completing intensive and extensive reading training, candidates can comprehensively assess their proficiency in this part. Therefore, we recommend that candidates spend about 90 minutes to complete each set of questions. This way, candidates can also check if their time management exceeds the specified time limit. Part provides a detailed analysis of the characteristics of the reading comprehension section in past exam papers. Based on this, it explains and analyzes problem-solving strategies through examples, training candidates in reading comprehension skills for exams, helping them grasp important information needed for answers, and cultivating their ability to understand sentences and word meanings in context.
