What this section tests
This section is tested with True / False / Not Given (Q15–20), Matching Features (Q21–27). Each section below gives the strategy for that question type, the answers, and the sentence that proves them.
Questions 15–20: True / False / Not Given
Strategy: Judge the whole statement against the text. FALSE contradicts the passage; NOT GIVEN means the passage never addresses that specific claim.
The program cost includes internal flights within the USA.
“return flight from Sydney to Los Angeles (onward travel in USA not included)”
FALSE - the package lists a 'return flight from Sydney to Los Angeles' but adds 'onward travel in USA not included', so internal US flights are not covered.
Emergency assistance offered in the program includes legal advice.
“24-hour emergency support throughout the length of the program”
NOT GIVEN - '24-hour emergency support throughout the length of the program' is promised, but the leaflet never says what that support covers, so legal advice is unmentioned.
InterExchange offers similar programs in countries other than the USA.
“InterExchange can also offer you work opportunities in other countries”
TRUE - 'InterExchange can also offer you work opportunities in other countries' confirms comparable programmes exist beyond the USA.
InterExchange is part of a government program.
“is a non-profit, non-governmental organisation”
FALSE - InterExchange is described as 'a non-profit, non-governmental organisation', which contradicts the claim that it forms part of a government programme.
There are no restrictions on the type of job you can do.
“You can choose any job that interests you anywhere in the USA, whether that is working in a law firm in Boston, a famous ski resort in Colorado or serving coffee and doughnuts in the buzzing streets of New York”
TRUE - 'You can choose any job that interests you anywhere in the USA' shows applicants are free to pick any job type or location.
There is an upper age limit for applicants.
“• over 18 years old by November in the academic year in which you apply to InterExchange”
NOT GIVEN - applicants need only be 'over 18 years old by November'; the criteria state a minimum age and never mention any upper limit.
Questions 21–27: Matching Features
