Multiple Choice, Single
Answer is the first task type of the PTE Reading test. Here’s how it works.
1. Read
the question/task first.
·
The
page is divided into two columns: the text at the left and the question/task and
its options at the right.
·
You
must read the passage and respond to the multiple choice question/task by
selecting the correct answer.
·
You
have four minutes to complete the task. If you want to proceed to the next item
early, click on the “next” button at the bottom right of the page.
Start the reading exam
right by acing its first section. Enroll in one of our training facilities (we
have a center for PTE in Cebu, Manila, Makati,
and Baguio) and practice the tips below. They’ll help you refine your strategy
for the Multiple Choice, Single Answer test type.
There
are two kinds of prompts in this section of the PTE reading exam: question and
sentence completion. Whichever it is, it’s crucial that you read and understand
it first before you dive into the text.
Take
note of the prompt’s keywords (e.g., nouns, verbs, etc.). If it’s a sentence
completion prompt, pay attention to the words before and after the blank as
well. Doing this will give you an idea of what information to look for when you
read the passage. So, practice this approach during your Pearson Test of English Philippines classes.
2. Assess
the options.
The
choices can be words, phrases, or sentences. Before you read the passage, consider
the prompt and determine which of the options are the most and least likely to
be correct. It’ll help you pinpoint the answers in the text faster. It’ll also
help you narrow down your answer if you can’t determine the right one.
3. Know
what you can and cannot do.
Left-click
the option you think is correct to select it. If you want to change your
choice, you can either left-click your selected option to de-select it or left-click
another option. Keep these in mind during your PTE Cebu
training sessions.
4. Consider
how you’re going to be scored.
You
get a point if your answer is correct. You won’t get credit if you didn’t
select an option or you failed to pick the right answer.
