Hi Andrea and Steve.
First of all I’d like to thank you for the great podcasts you’ve been doing, I’ve listened them all more than once.
They’ve been so helpful to me so far on my studies and I’m pretty sure your advice will help me out on getting a higher band on my Ielts test that will take place on last week of June.
If you don’t mind, I’d like to ask you a question related to the listening test, which I believe I’ve been losing valuable marks by filling the gaps with the incorrect answers. Let me explain: when I’m doing online Ielts mock tests, the instructing says “no more than three words”, however when I fill in with 2 words, usually one is correct), and the other is not (usually is pronoun or an adjective).
My question is, even if the instruction says that I should not write down more than three words, and if I write down only one, will my answer be correct?
Thank you very much.
Kinds regards
Hi Diego
Thank you for following us on our site.
Yes, the maximum number of words you can write is always 3 but be careful and read the instructions ( it’s sometimes 2 or 1 word)
However, if the instruction says maximum 3 words, it is all right to only write one word, as long as that word has the necessary information to complete your answer.
You can also usually omit the articles or the adjectives. Again just read the section carefully and make sure your answer is both grammatically correct and you’ve chosen the words that answer the question.
Hope this helps.
