يُعدّ قسم القراءة في اختبار الآيلتس تحديًا يتطلب استراتيجيات فعّالة لتحقيق أفضل النتائج. إليك بعض التكتيكات المُجربة التي تساعدك في التعامل مع هذا القسم بكفاءة:

  1. تطوير مهارات التعامل مع أنواع الأسئلة المختلفة: يحتوي قسم القراءة على مجموعة متنوعة من الأسئلة، مثل:​

    • صح / خطأ / غير مذكور (True / False / Not Given): تأكد من أن الجملة بأكملها صحيحة قبل اختيار "صح". إذا كان جزء منها خاطئًا، فالإجابة هي "خطأ". وإذا لم تُذكر المعلومة في النص، فالإجابة "غير مذكور".​

    • إكمال الجمل (Sentence Completion): انتبه إلى الحد الأقصى لعدد الكلمات المسموح بها لكل فراغ. تجاوز هذا العدد يجعل إجابتك خاطئة، حتى لو كانت الكلمات صحيحة.​

    • مطابقة العناوين (Matching Headings): اقرأ الجملة الأولى والأخيرة من كل فقرة لفهم الفكرة الرئيسية، ثم اختر العنوان المناسب.​

  2. عدم محاولة فهم كل كلمة في النص: ستواجه كلمات غير مألوفة. بدلاً من التركيز عليها، حاول استنتاج المعنى من السياق العام واستمر في القراءة للعثور على المعلومات المطلوبة.​Emonovo

  3. قراءة الأسئلة أولاً: قبل البدء في قراءة النص، اطّلع على الأسئلة وحدد الكلمات المفتاحية فيها. سيساعدك ذلك في توجيه تركيزك أثناء القراءة والبحث عن الإجابات بشكل أكثر فعالية.​

  4. استخدام تقنيات التصفح والمسح (Skimming and Scanning):

    • التصفح (Skimming): اقرأ النص بسرعة للحصول على فكرة عامة عن المحتوى. ركّز على العناوين والجمل الأولى من كل فقرة.​

    • المسح (Scanning): ابحث بسرعة عن معلومات محددة أو كلمات مفتاحية تتعلق بالأسئلة.​

  5. تحديد الكلمات المفتاحية والمرادفات: غالبًا ما تختلف صياغة الأسئلة عن النص. لذا، حدد الكلمات المفتاحية وفكر في مرادفاتها لتسهيل العثور على الإجابات.​

  6. التدريب المستمر: قم بحل اختبارات تجريبية بانتظام لتحسين سرعتك ودقتك. استخدم مصادر موثوقة مثل اختبارات المجلس الثقافي البريطاني وموقع IELTS.org.​

  7. إدارة الوقت بفعالية: خصص وقتًا محددًا لكل نص وأسئلته، والتزم به. لا تقضِ وقتًا طويلاً على سؤال واحد؛ إذا واجهت صعوبة، انتقل إلى السؤال التالي وعد إليه لاحقًا إذا تبقى وقت.​

📖 Passage 1: The Evolution of Education

Education systems have dramatically evolved over the past centuries. From oral traditions and apprenticeships to digital learning environments, the tools and methods of education have adapted to cultural and technological changes. In ancient times, education was a privilege of the elite, often taking place in temples or under the guidance of philosophers.
