Test instructions

Label the diagram below.

Choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the passage for each answer.

What this task is

A technical drawing with labelled arrows and gaps. The passage describes the object in words, and you copy those exact words into the diagram.

This type appears only with passages that describe a physical object, so one paragraph describes the object part by part. The labels usually follow the order of that description.

The traps

The common mistakes in this question type. Learn to spot each one before test day.

Description spread across sentences

The parts rarely arrive as a tidy list. A component named in one sentence is positioned in the next. The label needs both.

The near-miss component

Two parts sit close together on the drawing and in the text. The arrow points at exactly one of them.
