What this section tests
This section is tested with Diagram Labeling (Q1–4), Short Answers (Q5–8), One Choice (Q9–14). Each section below gives the strategy for that question type, the answers, and the sentence that proves them.
Questions 1–4: Diagram Labeling
Strategy: Locate the labelled part on the diagram, then find the matching description in the passage. Answers are usually concrete nouns.
“This button activates a super shot of steam which momentarily gives you an additional 40g of steam when needed”
This label marks the button giving 'a super shot of steam' and an extra 40g, so option D is the steam button.
“A Filling the reservoir”
The label marks the part used for 'Filling the reservoir', so option A is the water inlet.
“This button activates a jet of cold water which allows you to iron out any unintentional creases. Press the button for one second”
The button releases 'a jet of cold water' to remove unintentional creases, which is option C.
“It is possible to use this iron in a vertical position so that you can remove creases from clothes on coathangers or from curtains”
The iron works in a vertical position to remove creases from clothes on coathangers or curtains, so option E is the vertical steam feature.
Questions 5–8: Short Answers
Strategy: Use the question word to predict the answer type, locate the relevant sentence, and copy no more words than the limit allows.
What sort of water are you advised to use?
“However, it will last longer if you use distilled water”
The manual advises 'distilled water' because the iron 'will last longer' with it, answering which water to use.
What factor makes you decide on the quantity of steam to use?
“You can, therefore, adjust the temperature of the iron and the amount of steam being given off depending upon the type of fabric being ironed”
Steam is adjusted 'depending upon the type of fabric being ironed', so the fabric decides how much steam is needed.
Which factor should you pay attention to if your iron starts to drip water?
“If your iron produces droplets of water instead of giving off steam, your temperature control is set too low”
Droplets of water mean 'your temperature control is set too low', so temperature is the setting to check.
What should be cleaned to avoid damaging your iron?
“Any calcium deposits will be washed out by the steam”
The steam washes out 'calcium deposits', which is the build-up that would otherwise damage the iron.
