- Section 1: Social Survival: The first section contains texts related to daily social interactions. These texts might be notices, timetables, or advertisements. The questions are often straightforward and ask for basic comprehension of facts and specific details.
- Section 2: Workplace Survival: The second section focuses on workplace-related documents, such as job descriptions, employee policies, or company guidelines. The tasks test candidates’ ability to extract specific information and understand how texts function in a professional setting.
- Section 3: General Reading: The third section includes a longer and more detailed passage on a topic of general interest. This text could resemble an editorial or feature article from a magazine or newspaper and requires candidates to understand arguments, identify opinions, and summarize information. It is the most challenging section in the General Training Reading test.
