Key Features
Complete Skills for IELTS (With 2 CDs) starts off with the Listening section, which contains an audio CD. This disc plays monologues, group discussions, or speeches, at the end of which the candidates are asked a few questions. This is similar to how the actual exam is conducted. The Reading section of this guide has passages, and students are required to answer different types of questions, like identifying the writer's viewpoints, and writing summaries. The third portion of Complete Skills for IELTS (With 2 CDs) is titled Writing for IELTS. Candidates can practice their writing skills by expressing their thoughts and opinions on paper. The first half of the test requires a person to describe a chart or a graph, and the second half requires one to respond to an argument through an essay

The final section focuses on speaking, and the CD accompanying this book contains practice exercises. The part of the actual IELTS is segregated into three sections, the first of which is an interview about the candidate’s interests, hobbies, family, computers, and the Internet. In the following part, the candidate needs to deliver a speech, and the final section is a discussion with the examiner. Some of the chapters in this book are Family Structures, Local Languages, Starting University, Being Young, and At The Office. Every portion of Complete Skills For IELTS (With 2 CDs) comes with complete practice sets, along with tips, audio scripts, and answer keys. This guide has been written by expert tutors, and can help candidates excel in the final examination.
