Format and marking
The official Academic Reading section has 40 questions, three texts and 60 minutes. These independently written practice papers follow those length and timing conventions. See the official IELTS Reading format.
Each paper includes single-choice questions, True/False/Not Given, Yes/No/Not Given and short word-completion answers. Each correct answer earns one practice mark. Short answers use the listed accepted wording and displayed word limit; case and surrounding whitespace do not affect marking. Spelling still matters.
Try the approach first
Original mini-example: “The library opens at nine on weekdays. Its Saturday hours change during summer.”
Statement: The library opens at nine every Saturday. Choose True, False or Not Given.
See the answer and reasoning
Not Given. The passage provides weekday opening time and says Saturday hours change. It does not establish the Saturday opening time. Missing information is different from a contradiction.
Is this an official IELTS mock or a band prediction?
No. This is original, unofficial full-length Reading practice, not an official past paper or the four-skill IELTS exam. It has not been externally calibrated, so your result is a practice score out of 40, not an IELTS band. IELTS explains its official scoring separately.
Can I practise on my phone?
Yes. The mobile reading switch reduces side-by-side scrolling. A phone experience is a study adaptation, not an exact recreation of official computer-test software. Use a laptop too if that is how you will take your actual exam.
