For the IELTS reading section, always read the questions first.
The questions in IELTS reading section are in chronological order which means that if the first question is going to be from the first paragraph then the second question will be from the second paragraph. It is not mandatory that the answer for the second paragraph would be in the second paragraph, it might also be in the last lines of the first paragraph.
Most of the people get matching the heading questions wrong. You should learn the technique to attempt these questions. In order to find the write heading you should concentrate on the topic sentence of a paragraph, which is the first line of the paragraph.
look for facts, at least 20% of the questions are related to facts. The answers to these questions would be dates, names or places.
Look for similar words
