Main Features

each chapter of the book contains a number of particular topic-related questions so that they are not repeated or redundant.

(a) model answer(s) is/are always provided below each typical question in the three parts of the speaking test.

standard and advanced answers are separately provided, which facilitates learners’ application according to their levels.

in addition to every five typical questions presented, possible questions in part 3 of the ielts speaking test are supplied.

questions are grouped according to particular topics. learners, therefore, can easily select what they want to practise.

each chapter will begin with an overview of all the questions that will be presented in detail in the parts that follow. it will end with a list of vocabulary items that are previously used in the model answers.

learners may select any statements out of the 20 ones in the part say it in english to complete the gaps and then say the whole statements aloud to familiarise themselves with common english vocabulary and structures.

model statements together with cues for substitution drills in the speak up sections help learners to form language habits. these statements are also recorded for learners to check their drills.

more questions to part 3 enable learners to have more opportunities for further practice. most model answers to these questions are recorded for learners’ reference.

a. Listening
The Listening test is the same for both the Academic and General Training modules. It is in four sections with a total of 40 questions in order of increasing difficulty and will last about 30 minutes with an extra 10 minutes at the end for candidates to transfer their answers to the answer sheet.

In the Listening test, candidates will listen to four recorded texts in the form of monologues and conversations by a variety of voices and native-speaker accents. They then write their answers to a range of 40 questions which test the ability of understanding main ideas and detailed factual information, the opinions and attitudes of speakers, the purpose of what is said, and the ability of following the development of ideas.

b. Reading
In terms of reading, the Academic and General Training Reading tests are similar in many ways. The Reading test of both modules lasts one hour with three passages and a total of 40 questions and is scored in the same way. Noticeably, the main difference lies in the contents of the passages. In addition, candidates have to mark their answers while doing the test since they have no time to transfer their answers to the answer sheet as they can in the Listening test.

The Academic Reading test includes three long passages which range from the descriptive and factual to the discursive and analytical. All passages are authentic and taken from books, journals, newspapers, magazines, or research papers. These have been selected for a non-specialist audience but are recognisably appropriate for anyone entering undergraduate or postgraduate courses or seeking professional registration.

The General Training Reading test includes easier passages taken from books, magazines, newspapers, notices, advertisements, company handbooks, or guidelines. These are materials candidates are likely to encounter on a daily basis in an English-speaking environment.

c. Writing
The Writing test of both the Academic and General Training modules consists of two tasks, and candidates are given one hour to complete the test.

For the General Training Writing test, candidates have to complete two tasks of 150 words and 250 words respectively. Task 1 is always a letter, while Task 2, which is similar to that of the Academic module, is an essay based on a given title.

For the Academic Writing test, in Task 1, candidates are given a title based on some graphic or pictorial information, and they are expected to write a descriptive report of at least 150 words on the information provided. In Task 2, candidates are expected to produce an essay of at least 250 words on a given title whose topics are of general interest and to suitable for anyone entering undergraduate or postgraduate studies or seeking professional registration. Importantly, responses to both tasks must be written in a formal style.

d. Speaking
The Speaking test is the same for both the Academic and General Training modules and aims at assessing candidates’ use of spoken English. Every test is recorded and takes between 11 and 14 minutes to complete.

The Speaking test consists of three parts:

In Part 1, each candidate is asked to answer general questions about himself/herself and a range of familiar topics, such as home, family, work, studies, or interests. This part lasts between 4 and 5 minutes.

In Part 2, the candidate is given a card which asks him/her to talk about a particular topic. He/She will have one minute to prepare before speaking for up to two minutes. The examiner then asks him/her one or two follow-up questions on the same topic to finish this part of the test.

In Part 3, the examiner will ask the candidate further questions connected to the topic in Part 2. These questions give him/her an opportunity to discuss more abstract issues and ideas. This part lasts between four and five minutes.

Actually, the Speaking test is delivered in such a way that does not allow the candidate to rehearse set responses beforehand.

IELTS Registration
To register for an IELTS test, you can apply online, in person, or by post. To register online, you first have to check and select a test date, then register your personal details, and last pay by credit card.

2. Complete an application form (obtained from the test centres in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City or downloaded from www.ielts.org).
3. Provide two recent passport-sized photographs (taken within 6 months before the date of registration and remember that you must not wear glasses in your photographs).

If you want to register by post, you can apply by following the steps below:

1. Contact the test centres to check the availability of the IELTS test dates of your choice.
2. Download an application form.
3. Fill out the application form.
4. Enclose two passport-sized photos (taken within 6 months before the date of registration and remember that you must not wear glasses in your photographs).
5. Enclose a photocopy of your ID card/passport (no notarization required).
6. Send to the intended test centre. It is advisable that you use express services so as to avoid late delivery or your documents going missing.

If you want your results to be sent automatically to a university or an educational institution, you must point out this detail in the corresponding section on your IELTS application form.

Once you have registered, the test centre will confirm your IELTS test date, time, and venue. Also note that the Speaking test can be taken up to 7 days before or after the test date.

IELTS Results
Your results can be accessed online 13 days after the written test date (i.e. after 12 noon on the second Friday as of the test date if it was on a Saturday). You will need to enter your candidate number, passport or ID number, date of birth, and then select the date you took the test.

The original Test Report Form will be sent to you by post, unless you indicate on the form given to you on the test date that you would like to collect it in person. You can also authorise someone to collect the form, with a signed letter giving this person’s name and passport/ID number (the person must carry the mentioned ID), and a copy of your passport/ID.

Another original copy will be sent directly to the educational institution of your choice if you have specified this on your application form.

In actual fact, the IELTS test result is valid for 2 years. However, some universities or organisations may have their own regulations concerning the period of validity.

IELTS Band Scores
IELTS is a multi-level exam, so there is no pass or fail in the IELTS test. Candidates are graded on their performance, using a band score from 1 to 9 for each part of the test – Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. The results from the four parts then produce an Overall Band Score. All parts of the test and the Overall Band Score can be reported in whole and half bands, e.g. 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, etc. Most targeted universities often demand an IELTS score of 6.0 or 7.0. They may also demand a minimum score in each of the four parts. This unique 9-band system measures scores in a consistent manner – wherever and whenever the test is taken, i.e. it is internationally recognised.
