It would be suggestive to practice reading test everyday and develop the skills of understanding the main idea of the passage. Intensive reading is notably essential when you are asked tough questions or even sentences that require complete comprehension such as true or false questions wherein a single word can change the meaning of the sentence.
A lot of IELTS takers who got a band score of 7 in Reading developed the skill of speed reading which is a plus point to this section. However, in a short passage of 500 words as you read it too fast but you have to read it again, not to mention encountering 5 or more unfamiliar words, then there is no reason to do speed reading. Always remember that the most important thing in this section is to understand the main ideas and the details and remember them as much as you can. In addition, if there’s an extra time left and before you finish the reading section and answer the questions don’t forget to check or review your answers especially the missed items.
