IELTS Reading: test practice

A student recently asked me about the reading test on page 40 of Cambridge IELTS book 6. Find a copy of this test, and use the vocabulary in the table below to help you find the answers.

For the 'paragraph headings' question, you should find it easier to start with the shortest paragraphs.

Note:
"Commuting" means travelling (into a city) to work. "Overcrowded" means there are too many people in one place.

Hi Saif,

I haven´t got this test with me to check your answers, but if you´ve got the book I guess you have already checked the answers yourself.

Hope you got the right answers!

Hi Simon,
Thank a lot for your all work. It helps me so much at least increasing my knowledge. In this chart, I don't understand what does "people power" mean? Can you explain for me? Thank in advance!
Best,
Anh.
